Episode 218 - Paloma Guerrero, T1D, Glitter Glucose, Content Creator

Special new #sponsored episode with one of my favorite people that Diabetes has brought into my life, Paloma Guerrero aka Glitter Glucose!!! This episode is sponsored by Afrezza, and is part of Diabetics Doing Things 2022 partnership with Mannkind and Afrezza. Paloma was in Dallas recently and was able to stop by and record her episode in person. Paloma lives with Type 1 Diabetes on her terms, and I’ve always been so inspired by the way she lives authentically and makes Diabetes work for her, instead of vice versa. I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I did. Included in the episode is: * What’s new since the last time Paloma was on the pod (Fall 2020) * What does a typical day in the life of Glitter Glucose look like? . * How Paloma makes Diabetes fit into her life vs. fitting her life into Diabetes * Paloma posted recently about using Afrezza while at a concert. How does Afrezza help Paloma make Diabetes work on her terms? * How has Paloma’s work life changed with all of the changes on the social media platforms? * What’s it like having so many friends and living so publicly? * Who do you get inspiration from? * If you could write your younger self a message on the bathroom mirror from the future, what would you write? * And MORE Please see additional important safety information, Full Prescribing Information, including BOXED WARNING, Medication Guide and Instructions for Use on Afrezza.com/Safety.
