About Me

Hi, I’m Ali, the voice behind Glucose & Glass Slippers! I’m a Disney enthusiast, proud endocrinologist, and mom of two amazing little ones. My love for all things Disney runs deep—we visit Disney World frequently, set sail on Disney Cruises whenever we can, and even lace up our running shoes to tackle the Disney Marathon each year.

Through this blog, I combine my passion for Disney with my expertise in health and wellness, sharing tips, insights, and fun adventures that help families—and adults alike—enjoy the magic while staying mindful of their health. Disney is all about magic, fun, and indulging in the treats and experiences that make the parks and cruises so special—and by all means, enjoy every bit of it!

Over the years, I’ve spoken with many patients who would like travel to Disney but feel they don’t have the resources or guidance to do this while still managing their health or diabetes, which can be an unnecessary stress. That’s exactly why this site was created: to provide tips, tools, and guidance to help you stay well and remove the stress, so you can fully enjoy your trip and the magic it brings.
