January 18, 2023 Episode 218 - Paloma Guerrero, T1D, Glitter Glucose, Content Creator
Special new #sponsored episode with one of my favorite people that Diabetes
has brought into my life, Paloma Guerrero aka Glitter Glucose!!! This
episode is sponsored by Afrezza, and is part of Diabetics Doing Things 2022
partnership with Mannkind and Afrezza.
Paloma was in Dallas recently and was able to stop by and record her
episode in person. Paloma lives with Type 1 Diabetes on her terms, and I’ve
always been so inspired by the way she lives authentically and makes
Diabetes work for her, instead of vice versa. I hope you enjoy this episode
as much as I did.
Included in the episode is:
* What’s new since the last time Paloma was on the pod (Fall 2020)
* What does a typical day in the life of Glitter Glucose look like? .
* How Paloma makes Diabetes fit into her life vs. fitting her life into
Diabetes
* Paloma posted recently about using Afrezza while at a concert. How
does Afrezza help Paloma make Diabetes work on her terms?
* How has Paloma’s work life changed with all of the changes on the
social media platforms?
* What’s it like having so many friends and living so publicly?
* Who do you get inspiration from?
* If you could write your younger self a message on the bathroom mirror
from the future, what would you write?
* And MORE

December 21, 2022 Episode 216 - Christina Roth, T1D, Founder & CEO of The Diabetes Link
This episode is sponsored by Gvoke HypoPen® (glucagon injection). Gvoke
HypoPen® is an emergency glucagon for very low blood sugar in a convenient
auto injector that is available in 2 pre-measured doses for adults and
children.
Note from Rob:
I have partnered with Gvoke® before, and I’ve been working with Xeris
Pharmaceuticals® since 2018 - I even interviewed their CEO back in March
2020. If you want to hear that interview with Xeris President & CEO, Paul
Edick, from March 2020, check out episode 143 of Diabetics Doing Things.
I’m also really careful not to promote products that I don’t personally use
and I have used
Gvoke HypoPen® for very low blood sugar before. I’ve told the story on this
podcast before and I am convinced that if you are on insulin, you should
have emergency glucagon around, just in case of a very low blood sugar, and
I use Gvoke HypoPen®. Gvoke shouldn’t be used in patients with
pheochromocytoma or insulinoma – visit gvokeglucagon.com/risk.
I also want to address that I will not promote pharmaceutical products
without the opportunity to promote patient assistance programs because if
my listeners can’t access glucagon, how can they use it to treat their very
low blood sugar? So, if you visit the savings and support tab on
GvokeGlucagon.com, you can get a $25 coupon for patients on commercial
insurance plans, and there is a contact form to fill out for people not on
commercial plans.
Now onto the show: Christina Roth has returned to the pod! In this episode,
Christina and Rob talk about:
* The evolution from College Diabetes Network to The Diabetes Link
* Expanding the reach of resources, programming, and community beyond
college campuses
* Deepening the connections that existed before COVID, but now in a
hybrid way e.g. Discord community and digital platforms like The
Resource Hub
* 12 years as a Founder and big family announcements
* Tools and technology continue to grow, but so does the need for
support and community
* Taking the time to digest the impact on the community when there’s so
much more to do
* Diabetes and motherhood
* No matter where you are in your Diabetes journey, remember that you
are not alone
