Trying your best… but still feel like you can’t get it “right”?

In this episode, Eoin speaks directly to the frustration, uncertainty, and mental load that comes with Type 1 Diabetes when things feel unpredictable.

He explains why it’s not your fault, why effort isn’t the issue, and how shifting from reacting to understanding can completely change the way you manage your blood sugars, and how you feel day to day.

Part of Eoin's chat with Michelle Law, an Honorary Professor at the University of Exeter, co-author of the latest EASD (European Association for the Study of Diabetes) guideline on Diabetes distress, and someone who has been living with Type 1 Diabetes for over 18 years.

Alongside her academic work, Michelle shares honest and unfiltered insights on life with Diabetes through her writing, and has become a leading voice in helping people better understand the emotional side of this condition.

She has also been involved in advocacy at the highest level, including speaking in Parliament on Diabetes technology and access, bringing real lived experience into important conversations around care.

In this episode, we dive into Diabetes burnout, the mental load of day to day management, and what it really means to live well with Type 1 beyond just the numbers.
