Description

Lachlan Trowell didn’t plan on becoming a diabetes fitness coach, but life had other ideas 💪


In this episode, we sit down with the personal trainer who turned his Type 1 diagnosis into a mission.


From breaking down the real difference between Type 1 and Type 2, to unpacking how hormones, alcohol, and lifestyle affect blood sugar, Lachlan gets real about what it takes to coach clients with chronic conditions.


We cover:

⚡ Decision fatigue and how structure creates freedom

⚡ Why understanding insulin is key for performance

⚡ The stigma around diabetes

⚡ Building a coaching niche from lived experience

⚡ What every coach should know before taking on a diabetic client


Whether you’re already working with chronic conditions, or want to specialise, this one’s a powerful insight into what it means to coach with depth, empathy, and strategy.
