Reclaim Your Rise: Type 1 Diabetes with Lauren Bongiorno

This week, I’m so excited to welcome Risely Coach Jess Bonilla back on the show to share the highly anticipated part 2 of her pregnancy journey with us.

I know that we left you hanging on part one, but there was just so much for Jess to share. Get excited to pick up right where we left off!

In this episode, Jess shares her full birth story including…

• How she prepared for the hospital and what she brought with her (hello snacks!)
• What her blood sugars were like throughout the entire laboring process.
• Her choice to manage her own insulin in the hospital

• Her postpartum journey to find balance in her body and mind
