Kalex Willzy is a radio presenter and content creator from London. When he's not busy with music and radio, he's making people laugh with his relatable type 1 diabetes Reels on Instagram, putting a humourous spotlight on the more ridiculous moments that living with type 1 diabetes brings.Diagnosed at the age of 23 in 2016, he describes himself as a 'lone ranger' when it comes to figuring out life with type 1 diabetes. After a less than informative diagnosis experience, he's always relied on himself to navigate the literal ups and downs of the condition. From food anxiety to fitness, to the responsibility of educating his family and navigating dates, Kalex covers it all in this episode that has some beautifully poignant moments as well as a healthy dose of realness - and of course, a generous dose of laughter. Kalex created his account @typewondiabetes after giving a talk on the condition and realising there was something missing from the online space. He's since made a virtue out of being what he describes as 'the odd one out', and helped thousands of people laugh along the way.
