Coach Ken Kniss
My name is Coach Ken Kniss. I am a Diabetes Health Coach, a Strength & Condition Coach, and the founder of Simplifying Life With Diabetes (SLWD), a Diabetes Health Coaching company that bridges the gap between your medical team and the daily complexities of Diabetes.
I was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) in 2007 at the age of 25. When I was diagnosed, I felt scared, overwhelmed, confused, alone, unsupported, and depressed. All of those emotions lead to 3 years of denial and mismanagement. In 2008, a year after being diagnosed, I pursued my dream of coaching people to better their lives through exercise and nutrition. Then, in 2019, I founded SLWD to bring a fundamental understanding and change to the Diabetes community.
Now, I support the Diabetes community through endless insights through the podcast and coaching programs that provide proven results to the ups and downs of living with Diabetes.
