What I Wish I Knew ♫

When I started the Juicebox Podcast, the idea was simple: take the things people usually learn the hard way and put them somewhere a newly diagnosed family could find them before the fear got too loud. This song comes from that same place. The words are drawn directly from the podcast — the management series, the interviews, and years of conversations with this community. I worked with Claude, an AI assistant, to shape those ideas into lyrics, then directed the music, voices, and arrangement myself before having it performed by Suno, an AI music tool. The AI performs it, but the podcast wrote it. Type 1 diabetes can be a lot most days, especially in the beginning. I hope this reminds you that there are people who understand what you're carrying, who have been there, and who will have your back. Start here. What I Wish I Knew The first night home is quiet But not the peaceful kind Papers on the counter New numbers in your mind The fridge hum sounds louder The clock won't let you sleep And every word they gave you Feels too sharp to keep You're staring at the kitchen Like the walls might tell the truth Asking no one in particular What am I supposed to do?
