Ep 133 - Food Should Bring Joy, Not Stress — Kaycee Parker's Diabetic Meals Made Easy
Description
Diagnosed at age 12, Kaycee Parker has lived with type 1 diabetes for over 30 years—and she's turned her experience into encouragement for others. A writer with a storyteller's heart (she jokes it's her Irish heritage), Kaycee blends her love of faith and food into a message of hope, balance, and grace.
In this heartfelt episode, Kaycee joins Melissa Slemp to share:
- The story behind her new cookbook, Diabetic Meals Made Easy
- Why it's not a "low-carb only" cookbook, but a blood sugar–friendly one for everyone
- How to pair foods for steadier numbers—and less stress at mealtime
- The biblical principle that inspired her approach to food and stewardship
- Her new Ultimate Blood Sugar Logbook and how tracking can help you find your patterns with peace, not perfection
Kaycee reminds us that food isn't something to fear—it's a daily opportunity to honor God, nourish our bodies, and enjoy life.
