about

Megan Baumley is a certified health coach at Risely Health.

Megan was diagnosed with T1D at age 18 during her sophomore year of college and in the midst of a transformative period in her personal life. Being in college, trying to balance school and a part time job, dealing with personal issues, and handling this new diagnosis was overwhelming and left her feeling burnt out. As time progressed, her relationship with herself and diabetes became really poor leading to an unsustainable lifestyle. 

Megan wanted to make an impact in the T1D community and spent years volunteering for the American Diabetes Association. Still, she didn't feel fulfilled and knew she could make more of an impact with this community. Megan fully understood the gaps in the healthcare system and was frustrated that there wasn't more information out there to support people living with T1D. Because of this, she became passionate about supporting people with T1D and finding better access to care and support in managing this diagnosis. 

Megan went through the Group Coaching Program with Risely Health. The community at Risely gave her space to acknowledge the struggles she was dealing with and empowered her to navigate through them with more confidence. This mindset shift made her decide to become a Certified Health Coach to help empower other T1Ds. In addition to Health Coaching, Megan is a speech-language pathologist. She lives in central New Jersey with her husband.
