  • #267: Diabetes Misconception - Leontine De Hollander

    In today's episode, I sit down with Leontine, a T1D of 30 years from the Netherlands. Leontine's diagnosis is another example of a broken system and how we aren't being seen, heard, or listened too. We discussed her Diabetes challenges, being diagnosed at 20 years old and starting her modeling career, and how she was able to overcome the obstacles in her life. For all of you ladies, we also talked about her symptoms and challenges going through menopause and the lack of support and fundamental understanding there is out there.

  • #266 - Bonus: Are You Non-Compliant?

    You aren't non-compliant; you simply need guidance, education, and real-time support. Have you ever felt inadequate in managing your Diabetes? Have Diabetes that you're not smart enough or that you're not making the right decisions? Or that you're not paying enough attention? Yes, Diabetes is complex, but without the right support to help you navigate daily challenges, in my opinion, you're being set up to fail. 

    In this episode, I discuss why you might not be receiving the support you need and where to find the guidance you need. It's not your fault.

  • #263: Not Every Diabetes Story Is The Same - Caroline & Charlotte

    In today's episode, I sit down with sisters Caroline and Charlotte, both living with Type 1 diabetes. We discuss the challenges they faced after being diagnosed at different stages of life and how having each other to share ideas made managing their Diabetes significantly easier. Each sister has a distinct approach to managing her condition: Charlotte uses a traditional insulin pump with a closed-loop system, while Caroline utilizes a DIY system. Both women highlight the importance of having a strong support system, emphasizing that it doesn't matter what type of management you choose as long as it works for you!
