The official podcast from Diabetes Victoria

Meet the amazing Izzy Anstey who is living with type 1 diabetes and pursuing a professional basketball career. Izzy joined the famous UCLA women’s basketball team in late 2019, following the footsteps of her athlete parents Chris Anstey, a former professional NBA player, and Linley Frame, an elite swimmer who represented Australia at the 1992 Olympics in Barcelona.

During this frank chat with host Jack Fitzpatrick, Izzy shares how and when she was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes and how she won’t be stopped pursuing her dreams. The pair also talk about their recent experiences catching COVID-19.  A terrific episode particularly for younger people living with diabetes as Jack and Izzy discuss how they navigate the world of dating, going out and managing to party safely!
