  • The 670G Sleep Solution | Mark Carter, Round III | Real Life Diabetes Podcast 53

    For all of us, this was a new season. In the time away from each other (less than a year), Mark has moved back to Northwest Arkansas, started a new job with Medtronic, and committed to a diabetes life with the new 670G insulin pump. And, as expected, the conversation went off the rails from the anticipated agenda and into even realer subjects: sex, sleep, and chick-fil-a.


    After listening to the show a couple of weeks after, Amber declared, “this is the best podcast EVER.” You be the judge!
    Happy listening everyone, and cheers to the highs and lows!

  • Our Favorite Wellness Warrior Refreshes Resolutions | Tonya Cameron, RN | Real Life Diabetes Podcast 52

    In life, we meet people who leave us feeling lighter and rejuvenated–Tonya’s one of those people. Every word she speaks is embodied in her own life. She’s curious and open-minded, a professional student in healthy living. As a nurse at Wellness and Longevity (an functional medicine clinic in Oklahoma City), she works with patients daily on optimizing their foundations for health. In her second episode (refresh with episode 10), we focus on the foundations of a vital life and how to reengage with meaningful resolutions. Diabetes can be a reflection of how we’re eating, moving, sleeping, and managing the mind. Tonya helps us get back to those basics, letting diabetes management reflect back out.
    If you’d like to pick Tonya’s brain about any number of the ideas from the show, hit us up at [email protected] and we’ll direct you her way.

  • A Life Of Advocacy After Wearing Diabetes On-Stage | Miss America Nicole Johnson | Real Life Diabetes Podcast 50

    An hour before her emcee duties at the Harold Hamm Diabetes Center’s Connect+Cure Gala in OKC, Nicole Johnson joined us and shared her perspectives since winning Miss America in 1999. From the surprising career trajectory afterward, to dating and diabetes scenarios, we embraced the whole journey. Per the usual flow of the show, many laughs were had, and we all got to know each other. 
    Nicole Johnson has served as a diabetes advocate since she was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes in 1993 and has worked tirelessly promoting diabetes awareness and prevention since she was named Miss America 1999.
    Nicole is a Telly award-winning television journalist and an avid writer. Her articles on living with diabetes have appeared in USA Today, Guideposts Magazine, Diabetes Health, Diabetes Forecast, and on various websites related to diabetes. She has written seven books including her most recent transition guide for young adults living with diabetes, Young Adult Type 1 Diabetes Realities.
    Nicole holds a Doctoral degree in Public Health from the University of South Florida and a Master’s degree in Journalism and Public Health.  Her education combined with her personal experiences living with diabetes led her to her professional position at the University of South Florida. At USF, Nicole created and operates a program called Bringing Science Home, where she and her team investigate the connection between chronic disease, family dynamics and optimistic living.

  • Who Are We Again, #3? (Honesty Shines Through) | Amber & Ryan | Real Life Diabetes Podcast 49

    With such busy lives these days it has been almost two months since team DDG crafted time to catch up. As everyone in the diabetes community knows, we all need our T1D bestie time chatting about life with the disease SO… after a long day at work we penciled in this episode to review life, recap breaking diabetes news, and discuss listener questions. We talk allergies, food choices, fight or flight response, T2D compassion, defense mechanisms, T1D anxiety and an honest conversation about how our diabetes management is constantly changing.
    If you’re one for free-flowing conversation, sit on back with a beverage of choice (if not driving) and enjoy.
