Diabetes Connections | Type 1 Diabetes

I’ve been talking to the folks at VIVI Cap for a few years now, it’s been fun watching their progress. I wanted to catch up and find out more about what they’ve been up to when it comes to insulin storage  – especially as we get closer to the hot summer months. They launched new products in the last year – smart insulin storage that helps you track dosing and a new case with more cooling protection. My guest is Ron Nagar, the founder and CEO of TempraMed, the company that makes the VIVI Cap. This podcast is not intended as medical advice. If you have those kinds of questions,...

Diabetes Connections | Type 1 Diabetes

We've got an update on Eversense—the CGM that sits just below the skin and lasts a year. This is the first time we’re talking to the folks from Senseonics, the company that makes Eversense, since they spun off from Ascensia. What's changed? It’s also the first time, we’re talking to someone who uses Eversense with an insulin pump – it’s now compatible with the twiist pump. I ask your questions about all of this – how’s the pump integration in real life, when will the next iterations of Eversense be out, their success in the type 2 market and much more.

Today on Diabetes Connections.. a bonus episode all about finding support and community online and in real life. Seems to be a theme lately and I could NOT be happier. Type One Together started with one college student, a few babysitting jobs, and a realization that there was a need. Type One Together has become something much bigger – they’ll still help you find a sitter but they’re also a hub for T1D info, support and gatherings. I’m talking to the founder, Raquel Baron, about how they got there, what kind of help they provide and what’s next. This podcast is not intended as...

Diabetes Connections | Type 1 Diabetes

There’s a reason we don’t call it juvenile diabetes anymore. We all know you grow up and T1D doesn’t go anywhere, and that you can be diagnosed at any age. But it often feels like adults are forgotten. I hope that’s not the case here—but I hear it all the time in the broader community. Kelly Dawes is working to change that. She’s started GrownUp T1Ds, a community built specifically for adults who’ve been living with type 1 for years and are finally finding connection, understanding, and support in a way they may never have had before.

Research is finally focusing on women with type 1 – hormones, periods, menopause. But there’s not a lot of guidance or conclusions yet. So what can you do to feel good now? I’m talking to Courtney Pickett this week – she lives with type 1, was a labor and delivery nurse, and is the founder of The CP Table, a holistic health coaching company. We’ll get her takes on everything from food, to frustration of cyclical blood sugar fluctuations, the pressure to be perfect and more. As Courtney says, women’s bodies are bad ass!
