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 for the last 15 years, 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.

S2 EP3: Fitness Part 2: Workout Like No-ones Watching
Fitness is word that was taboo for a longtime in my childhood. I simply hated PE!
I found it really uncomfortable and self-conscious doing PE with my form group... the thought of group fitness classes was simply overwhelming. And now that people can see my devices and hear the occasional beep beep, even more so.
But here I am talking to an inspiring human - Vanessa, a Type 1 fitness coach.
It was so great to hear about what works for her when managing her sugars, and the realisation she had a few years ago that it was time to become friends with her type 1.
Fitness could be going for a walk, or busting a gut at the gym - don’t do this! The key is to do whatever works for you. So lets get physical and take stock of our fitness.
Make sure you follow Vanessa on Instagram if you don't already - @diabetic_health_coach
And of course, who could forget my favourite circuits class PT... @trainwithmagicmike
