When 11-year-old Alana Kendall was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes, her life changed—but not in the way you might expect. Now 17, Alana speaks with remarkable wisdom, humor, and optimism about how living with a chronic condition has not only shaped her—but strengthened her.
In this inspiring conversation, Alana shares how she learned to manage her diabetes independently, how technology has helped her—and her parents—feel safe and in control. Most importantly, she reflects on how her diagnosis sparked something bigger: compassion, confidence, and a calling to lead.
For any parent raising a child with a chronic illness, this episode is a must-listen. Alana proves that a diagnosis doesn’t have to limit your child—it can fuel their purpose, their independence, and their power.
