The series

Each one is built to be worked through in order, but nobody will stop you from jumping in wherever you need to.

Bold Beginnings

Start here

The gentle place to start after a diagnosis — terminology, honeymooning, the emotions of it, and building a working understanding of type 1.

Diabetes Pro Tip

Foundational

Insulin, basal, pre-bolusing, CGMs, exercise, fat and protein. The education your settings and your instincts get built on.

Small Sips

Bite-sized

Foundational strategies in a few minutes each — one big idea at a time, for when you don't have an hour.

Mental Wellness

With Erika Forsyth

The psychology of living with type 1 and loving someone who has it — burnout, guilt and shame, parenting, resilience, and grief.

With Jenny Smith

The things that quietly move blood sugar: exercise, stress, illness, hormones, sleep, heat, and a long list of surprises.

After Dark

Unfiltered

Honest conversations about the parts of diabetes nobody else names out loud.

Pregnancy

Start to finish

From pre-conception through delivery and postpartum, with the people who have actually done it.

Algorithm Pumping

Automation

For parents and partners carrying a diagnosis that isn't technically theirs.
