Severe lows, sick days, new tech, what's actually coming down the pipeline for treatment — these are the conversations that don't get enough airtime.

We're covering it all: recognizing and handling lows, building an emergency plan, the tools that make life easier (CGMs, pumps, MDI), non-insulin meds like GLP-1s, what's next for beta cell research, staying active, and getting the most out of your appointments.


hypo awareness + low management

lows can come out of nowhere but being prepared and a little bit of prevention can help keep them from derailing your whole day.

emergency preparedness + glucagon

there is no magic number that makes a low blood sugar an emergency. the emergency is in the symptoms, so staying prepared is what matters most.

tech + devices

CGMs, insulin pumps, MDI - oh my! the options for diabetes tech is endless (and a little overwhelming), so let's break it down.

non-insulin medications + GLP-1s

so your TikTok FYP is filled with videos on GLP-1s and you still have questions. let's dive into what you need to know.

cells and treatment

beta cells + future treatments

beta cells are the reason insulin exists in the first place. here's what the research on what the future could look like.

sick days with diabetes

sick day management

being sick is hard enough. here's a break down on keeping blood sugars in check when your body's already fighting something else.
sports and diabetes

exercise + sports

learning how to manage your blood sugars during exercise may take some trial and error. Ask your provider questions and don't hesitate to ask speak with a diabetes educator, dietician, or sports medicine expert to optimize your success.
