Meet Mike – The Business Owner Who Thought He Had Time
Mike is 52, a self-made business owner, husband, and father. He’s spent years grinding through long hours, putting his business, family, and responsibilities first. But somewhere along the way, he stopped looking after himself. Three years ago, he was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. He told himself he’d make changes—eat better, move more, take it seriously. But life got in the way. Work stress, late nights, skipped meals. Now, he’s constantly exhausted, his brain fog is getting worse, and his body feels heavier every day. He shrugs it off, calls it “just a rough patch.” But deep down, he knows the truth. A recent doctor’s visit forced him to face what he’s been avoiding—his diabetes isn’t just something to “manage.” It’s getting worse. And if he doesn’t take action, insulin is next. Through his journal, Mike shares his raw, unfiltered journey of self-realisation, struggle, and change. He’s not perfect—he hesitates, resists, makes excuses—but he’s real. And as he takes his first steps toward reclaiming his health, you might just see yourself in him. Follow Mike’s story. Because like him, you might think you have time. But what if you don’t?
