The Omnipod 5 is a tubeless, automated insulin pump that adjusts your dose for you. People say it's a game changer. But we wanted to hear directly from a type 1 diabetic who uses this tech every day.

Fortunately we know the perfect person for the job. Temi (aka the diabetic doctor) recently switched to the Omnipod 5. She's tuned in, clued up, and totally honest about the realities of life with T1D.

In this episode, Cait quizzes her about:

• How the Omnipod reduces her mental burden.
• Learning to trust the algorithm.
• Exercise, nighttime lows, and takeaways on the pump.
• Dealing with CGM fails.
• When 'manual mode' makes sense.
