Riva Greenberg

Riva Greenberg is finally doing what she set out to do in high school – writing her observations of life and human behavior – little did she know then that diabetes would be her muse. Riva has had type 1 diabetes for more than 40 years and is the author of “Diabetes Do’s & How-To’s,” “50 Diabetes Myths That Can Ruin Your Life: and the 50 Diabetes Truths That Can Save It” and “The ABCs Of Loving Yourself With Diabetes.” She provides workshops and lectures on flourishing with diabetes, is a health coach and blogs on the Huffington Post and her web site diabetesstories.com.

Her work is dedicated to helping others live an exceptional life, not despite diabetes but because of it, using diabetes as a catalyst to create a healthier, happier, more meaningful and proud life. Prior to working in diabetes, Riva spent two decades in advertising, marketing, branding and change communication and lived in Tokyo, Hong Kong and Sydney.
