Riddhi Modi (India)

Author: Riddhi Modi

After being diagnosed with gestational and type 1 diabetes, I had to  unlearn my lifestyle and adapt to another for effective diabetes management, focusing on nutrition, exercise and mental health. Going through the journey of denial, resistance and then acceptance I understood this important balance. As a design entrepreneur and passionate diabetes advocate, I apply my motto “Gifting is Joy” to inspire the diabetes community to live a fulfilling life. My goal as a Blue Circle Voice is to spread awareness about IDF’s mission and incorporate best international practices within Indian society for better diabetes care.This is my way of paying it forward.

I AM “Powered by Insulin, Driven by Purpose”.
