About this listen
Perfection is not an option when it comes to type one diabetes, but it’s all too easy to feel like a failure. In her first book, Stacey explained how mistakes can become a parent’s secret superpower.
Now, she shows how her philosophy of “Not perfect, but safe and happy” can pay off as a child with type one diabetes moves toward independence as a young adult. This journey is not easy, but you are not alone!

There are 168 hours in a week. This book is about where the time really goes, and how we can all use it better. It's an unquestioned truth of modern life: we are starved for time. With the rise of two-income families, extreme jobs, and 24/7 connectivity, life is so frenzied we can barely find time to breathe. We tell ourselves we'd like to read more, get to the gym regularly, try new hobbies, and accomplish all kinds of goals.

In Tabula Rasa, Volume 1, McPhee looks back at his career from the vantage point of his desk drawer, reflecting wryly upon projects he once planned to do but never got around to—people to profile, regions he meant to portray.

Empaths not only sense other people’s emotions, but also absorb them - sometimes to their own disadvantage, often leading to overwhelming sensory overload and feelings of confusion or low self-esteem. Their willingness to help and please others might make them prey to opportunists or cause them to give away more energy than they can afford.

Great real world perspective!
I just binge listened to this book, Still the Worlds Worst Diabetes Mom- and cannot say enough how much I loved the perspective! I am very guilty of striving for perfection - and often lose site of the strong and independent daughter right in front of me. Safe & happy - my new mantra! I loved the real world ideas for slumber parties, traveling, driving and overall passing of “the torch!” Also- I’m with her on protecting our kids privacy. Parents unite!!!
