Welcome to The Stripped Pod, where we have real, honest conversations about diabetes beyond the numbers.
On today's episode, we hear from T1D and emergency services officer, Gunnar, who’s not only going to tell you what it was like being diagnosed with T1D in America, but also help get you prepared for storm season.
We had a few audio issues throughout this episode, but we think the message of this episode is powerful enough to overcome our tech challenges!
T1D Brodie Sargent is currently undergoing a World Record attempt for the most marathons consecutively completed by a T1D. Follow his journey on Instagram.
