Diabetes Squad
Diabetics share something that not that many people understand. This is the place where we can be united, share experiences and tips, and work together to build confidence. Hosted by Manisha, a type 1 diabetic since 2007, nothing is off limits. Food, fitness, dating... the list goes on and Manisha is on a journey to share and learn. Jargon free, and away from the textbook, this podcast is about having honest chats with both other type 1's and non-diabetics.
