I started this podcast for people with Type 1 Diabetes, because that’s who I am, what I know and it felt comfortable. What I didn’t know is how many amazing people with Type 2 Diabetes this journey would introduce me to. Dex Geralds (@Dexgeralds on Instagram) is one of those people.
Dex is a stigma shattering, stereotype breaking, personal trainer, actor and model living in Los Angeles, CA, AND Dex lives with Type 2 Diabetes.
We talk about the importance of exercise in Dex’s life and how he deals with the stereotypes inherent to Type 2 Diabetes, and how he has disciplined himself to have the life he wants alongside his disease.
Dex and I met last year at the Myabetic awards, and he’s just as cool in person as he is on this interview. hope you enjoy!
