Join us in this special episode as we hit the open road with the Type 1 Detour, a full-time RVing family embracing the nomadic lifestyle while facing the unique challenges of living with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D). November is National Diabetes Awareness Month, and we're diving into the Detour family's inspiring journey, highlighting their triumphs and tribulations as they navigate life on the road with diabetes.

Meet the Type 1 Detours—Chris, Amanda, and their two daughters—and learn how they've seamlessly integrated diabetes management into their lifestyle. From exploring breathtaking landscapes to setting up camp in different corners of the country, this family proves that living with diabetes doesn't mean sacrificing adventure.

This is an enlightening and uplifting conversation that sheds light on the intersection of the nomadic lifestyle and diabetes management. Whether you're a seasoned RVer, someone living with diabetes, or just curious about alternative ways of life, this episode promises inspiration, education, and a newfound appreciation for living the RV lifestyle all while managing diabetes.
