Smart Diabetes Living
After more than 33 years with type 1 diabetes, I’ve learned it’s about more than blood sugars — it’s about the emotional weight, the impact on families, and the tools that make life easier. With my technical background and lived experience, I write to share both heartfelt support and practical strategies, so no one has to face diabetes alone...
What "Beyond Burnout - The Type 1 Diabetes Guide" Readers Are Saying
Restore Motivation, Build Resilience, and Thrive with Type 1 Diabetes. Your Blueprint for Beating Burnout

Hello, I'm Philip Hall
When I was first diagnosed with type 1 diabetes back in London over three decades ago, the world looked very different.
Blood glucose meters demanded large drops of blood and long waits for results. Insulin was limited to syringes, and continuous glucose monitoring was only a distant dream.
Living through that evolution has taught me more than how technology can change diabetes care. It has taught me how heavy the daily burden can feel, how resilience is built one choice at a time, and how important it is to have support along the way.
I created Smart Diabetes Living to offer the kind of support I wish I’d had earlier in my journey. By sharing my experiences with both the challenges and the breakthroughs, my hope is to make life a little easier for others living with diabetes and for the people who care for them... one book at a time!
