Living, not Surviving

1:1 Support for Adults with T1D

You’ve done what it takes to survive. Now it’s time to tend to you.

You’ve been surviving with T1D for years. You’ve figured out the numbers, the routines, the systems.

But the emotional weight? Feeling like you always have to be “on”? That part is invisible. Hard to articulate. And heavy.

But you don’t have to hold it alone.

Living, not Surviving is deep, integrated 1:1 support created out of this need.

Whether you’re overwhelmed, burnt out, or ready to evolve—this is a space to support your emotional, spiritual, and nervous system well-being with diabetes.

Who It’s For

This is for you if:

You’ve had T1D for at least one year
You feel emotionally tired, anxious, or burnt out
You’ve done therapy, yoga, or coaching—but still feel stuck
You crave depth, softness, and soulful integration
You’re ready to have more energy for actually living: connecting, traveling, and being creative.
You’re ready to explore how chronic illness can be a teacher and an expander

If there’s a part of you that says “I’m so over this” or “I’m tired of keeping it together” or “Why me?”… this is for that part.

What We’ll Explore Together

At Sage Diabetes, we work with your whole self—because diabetes touches every part of your life.

The Sage Spiral™ framework integrates six layers:

Body — tending to nervous system states and our relationship to our bodies
Mind — supporting the parts of us that feel angry, sad, lonely, scared, and tired
Others — navigating relationships, boundaries, and support
Systems — unhooking from cultures of shame, perfectionism, and self-silencing
World — finding deeper purpose and impact through our diagnosis
Spirit — using this as a path to connect deeper with Life

We’ll draw from deep somatic, intuitive, imaginal, nervous system, narrative, and therapuetic art practices— tailored to your emotional season.

This layered framework is inspired by cyclical and integrative approaches to healing found in many Indigenous and ancestral traditions, offered with deep respect and gratitude.
