In this week's episode Graham and I discuss our diabetic fears. This was such a powerful conversation, FEARS weigh on me so much day by day. The power is knowing what your fears are and how to overcome them.

"FEAR is an emotion that controls all of us. As a diabetic we all have multiple fears that drive us to control the rollercoaster that is diabetes. Behind every great diabetic is a POWERFUL FEAR story!

There is no doubt that diabetes is a difficult disease to live with. The last three weeks we had the pleasure of hosting three different guests on the show. Individuals who showed us how important it is to keep these specific topics in mind. 

• How much insulin should a diabetic really take?
• Why is Nutrition important for diabetics?
• Are supplements good for diabetics?

Needless to say we took away a lot from these conversations. Today Graham and I sit down to discuss what we learned, and shared our thoughts about each topic.
