  • How Living with Type 1 Diabetes Changed the Definition of Health

    How Living with Type 1 Diabetes Changed the Definition of Health
    May 4 2025
    My guest today is a long-time friend of mine, Lexi Ascher! We grew up dancing together since we were eight, and this woman is an absolute inspiration. Lexi is a passionate advocate for health and wellness whose personal journey with type 1 diabetes has profoundly shaped her path. Raised in Orange County, she spent her childhood and teen years as a competitive dancer, instilling a deep appreciation for discipline, resilience, and physical well-being. Being diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at 16 marked a pivotal turning point—deepening her empathy and understanding of chronic illness, and ultimately inspiring her to pursue a career in healthcare. Lexi is preparing to begin a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner program this fall, with the goal of supporting and empowering children facing the same challenges she has experienced firsthand.
