Meet Jessyka

I was diagnosed when I was 22 years old. Finding out you have diabetes later on in life was a complete shock to my family and myself. I am the only one in my family with type 1 diabetes! I quickly had to learn how to live my life with this disease and learn that not every day is going to be easy. 

I quickly realized that I wanted to be in the diabetes community and share my story and passion for spreading much-needed awareness! In 2020, I started an Instagram page talking about my diabetes and all that comes with it. It quickly grew, and shortly after, so many people wanted to hear my story. I started my own business to help spread even more awareness! 

I know this is my calling in life and as a full-time mom to two little boys, it truly makes me so happy to be doing just that and raising my kids!
