In today's episode, I'm joined by our incredible lead coach, Jehan, who has guided hundreds of women through deep transformation in our signature group coaching program. Together, we unpack the most common patterns we see in women with type 1 diabetes, from fear of lows and all-or-nothing food habits to feeling overwhelmed by the daily unpredictability of blood sugars. Jehan shares her personal story and some of the exact tools we use in DCB, like the “5 Whys” and belief-replacement work, to help women move from stuck to empowered. We talk about what's really at the root of these challenges, and how real change doesn't come from just adjusting insulin… it comes from shifting your mindset and rebuilding trust in yourself. If you've ever thought you're the only one going through this, this episode is your reminder that you're not alone and that transformation is possible.Quick Takeaways:The importance of asking for help Reframing negative thoughts and limiting beliefs + building confidence in your T1D management The power of coaching, community, and getting the support you deserve Timestamps:[01:49] Coach Jehan is back: “That's 456 lives that you have impacted and touched”[02:19] “It can be really hard asking for help and getting help”[03:38] Jehan's personal coaching journey & her #1 transformation[08:17] Understanding diabetes distress [12:44] Root block #1: Your numbers [16:55] “It's possible.

In this week's episode, Mike's on a fitness high and Jack's… not quite. From time-in-range battles to chaotic meet-ups filled with hypos, highs, and a £4 ice cream, this one's full of laughs and real-life T1D experiences.

If you've ever sat in a therapy session and thought, I love my therapist, but they just don't get diabetes–this episode is for you. Lauren sits down with Beth Leanna for a conversation that so many of you have been waiting for—what to do when your therapist doesn't fully understand your Type 1 diabetes experience. Beth brings a rare blend of clinical and emotional insight, having worked for over a decade in endocrinology before becoming a therapist & starting her own practice. We talked about why the disconnect happens in therapy, how to advocate for yourself when you feel unseen, and what to look for in a provider who's either T1D-informed or open to learning. We also explored the power of support beyond traditional therapy, like coaching, community, and education, and how those fill the gaps so many T1Ds experience. Whether you're navigating an underwhelming therapy dynamic or just beginning your mental health journey, this episode is your reminder that your lived experience matters, and you deserve care that truly sees you. Quick Takeaways:The importance of emotional and mental support with a type 1 diabetes diagnosis (for patients and caregivers) Disconnect between physical and mental health care providers & the power of collaboration in the medical field Dealing with caregiver burnout AND burden: How to balance it all without feeling emotionally + physically drained Finding the root of your T1D triggersFinding the right support as a T1D Timestamps:[02:46] How Beth went from being an endocrine nurse to opening her own therapy practice [04:27] “As a nurse…you can take them so far, right?

Episode Summary: In this week's episode, we're joined by someone incredibly close to the Risely heart. Bianca Volpetti, from our enrollment team was diagnosed with T1D diagnosis at age 31, just weeks before her wedding. Even though her sister had been living with T1D since childhood and she was in the best shape of her life, Bianca's diagnosis completely rocked her world. Because matter how “healthy” or informed you are, diabetes changes everything. Like many of us, she tried to DIY her way through it… and learned the hard way just how isolating and overwhelming that path can be. Today, Bianca opens up about her lowest moments, what finally pushed her to say yes to support, and how coaching helped her not just stabilize her numbers—but truly reclaim her life. If you've been stuck in the belief that you should be able to figure this out on your own, this conversation is a powerful reminder that you don't have to wait until rock bottom to rise. Quick Takeaways:The importance of seeking support with your T1D (beyond your loved ones) How T1D impacts your personal relationships Navigating an adult diagnosis Accepting the help you needTimestamps:[03:20] Receiving her T1D diagnosis at 31 years old  [05:38] “I was in the ICU for four or five days and that is where my journey started.”[07:08] Growing up with a T1D sibling/ family member [10:51] Finding Risely… with a plot twist[16:24] Hitting her breaking point & deciding it was time for help [31:33] “We kind of allow ourselves to accept mediocrity because we have type one and… this is just how life has to be because I have this...

In this episode of We Are T1D: Type 1 Diabetes, hosts Mike and Jack are back with their signature blend of humor and honesty, tackling everything from the triumphs of diabetes management to the tribulations of tech troubles. Mike kicks off with a heartwarming win of taking back control, boasting disciplined hypo treatment and an active lifestyle that's got his blood sugars in check. Jack, on the other hand, celebrates a victory with the pharmacy that's worthy of applause. The duo doesn't stop at the wins; they dive into the struggles too. Mike opens up about an offensive email from a weight loss agency that fails to distinguish between Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes, prompting him to deliver a much-needed education on the differences. Meanwhile, Jack shares his frustration with a sensor that's been acting up, suspecting that humidity and wet conditions might be the culprits - a discovery that could be a game-changer for fellow T1Ds.   The conversation takes a serious turn as they discuss Diabetes UK's controversial partnership with Slimming World, questioning the organization's focus and priorities. But it's not all heavy; the laughs are plentiful, especially when they consider the absurdity of a planet named George and the legality of swearing in front of a corpse in Texas.   As they wrap up, the hosts reflect on their HbA1c averages, with Mike taking a narrow victory over Jack. They invite listeners to suggest future podcast guests, emphasizing that this show is for the community, by the community.   - Follow The Podcast https://www.instagram.com/wearet1d - Follow Mike https://www.instagram.com/t1d_mike - Follow Jack https://www.instagram.com/t1d_jack - Share your thoughts and guest suggestions at https://wearet1d.com   Tune in for an episode that's as informative as it is entertaining, and remember to Subscribe/Follow, Rate, and Review to stay connected with the T1D family.

I like Randi because she keeps it real. We all struggles as T1Ds to do many things, fasting included. Randi has had diabetes for 17 years and came to fasting about a year ago for both weight loss and better control over her blood sugars. After starting with a more relaxed protocol, Randi's fasting has now evolved into alternate day fasting. She also does multiple daily injections, which adds another layer of complexity to her fasting protocol. We dive deep on how she manages her insulin needs while doing longer fasts and we also talk about the struggles we all face as Type 1 diabetics. While Randi is making progress, she still has weight loss and A1C goals that she'd like to achieve. I have no doubt that she will reach her goals. Randi was a joy to speak with and she was incredibly honest. I hope you get a lot out of her episode!

We have a great guest on the show today, Lacey Weisbaum. Lacey is an ex-pat, an English teacher, and a mom to three boys under 10. Her son Ethan was diagnosed with T1D before his second birthday. Her family was one of the earliest families that I coached back in 2016, so they'll always have a super special place in my heart. One year ago, Lacey and her family moved to Italy from Chicago for her husband, Brian's job. Together, they're learning how to live a slower and more intentional life, how to navigate T1D in a foreign country, and how to appreciate the cultural shifts and differences from life in the US. We also talk about…The diabetes-related logistics that Lacey and her husband had to consider before moving internationallyThe differences in health and wellness in Europe vs. AmericaThe implications of testing family members to see if they have markers for T1D… and so much more! This episode is not just for parents with T1D kids, this is a conversation truly anyone will find fascinating.

Ben Tzeel is a lot of things: T1D since age 7, registered dietitian, certified diabetes educator, strength and conditioning specialist, AND the founder of Your Diabetes Insider.Ben turned himself into a science experiment after diagnosis and went against the grain of what he saw other T1Ds doing and going through. Determined not to let T1D become a "life sentence", Ben pursued his passions in sports and turned the doubts of others into his fuel.Outdated diabetes education stops millions of PWDs from taking control of their bodies and BGs, but not for Ben! He knows you can have your cake and eat it, too, and on this episode, he shares how.WEBSITE: https://www.yourdiabetesinsider.com/INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/manoftzeel/TIKTOK: https://www.tiktok.com/@manoftzeelWhat to do next...

Welcome back to the podcast! Today's episode will be a little different because we're NOT discussing how to lower your A1C or increase your time in range. Those are all important things and are covered in many episodes of Reclaim Your Rise, BUT today we're focusing on mindset and self-compassion, specifically for perfectionists.The truth is, your personality type plays a big role in managing diabetes: from your strengths, to your roadblocks, to how you *relate* to it. And, as a recovering perfectionist myself, I feel like in the T1D realm we often get the short end of the stick in receiving the type of support we need to feel better with our diabetes or to move forward in our lives. In this episode, I'll share five mindset reframes and journaling prompts that can help you discover the aspects of your life as a perfectionist that may be inhibiting your progress in finding freedom and peace of mind with diabetes. We are now enrolling for the next round of the Decide and Conquer Bootcamp, our signature group coaching program for women with T1D.

It's undeniably harder for us all, including myself, to manage our blood sugars when we are traveling, going out to eat, or any other spontaneous events that come up. Afterall, diabetes thrives in a routine. BUT that doesn't mean that we can't feel good about our blood sugars while living with freedom and flexibility to enjoy life's out of routine moments. I feel like this is a perfect time to discuss this topic because I'm coming off four weeks in a row of being more out of routine than in one. In today's episode, I'm sharing the 5 key factors that helped me maintain 86% TIR throughout a month in which I… ✅ Traveled to San Diego, Newport RI, Montauk, and Chicago✅ Changed time zones✅ Sat for long hours in the car/plane✅ Had different food, exercise, and sleep routines✅ Spent time in hot, humid weather✅ Enjoyed a few drinksYou will learn both the tactical pieces to consider when you're going out of your routine and the one major mindset shift that has helped me and over 600 coaching clients at Risely. Hit the subscribe button and rate and review to help this podcast rise! Follow me @lauren_bongiorno and @riselyhealth on Instagram to stay in the loop for when new episodes drop.Send me a DM to introduce yourself with any feedback, questions, or suggestions on topics you'd like us to cover in future episodes.See if you're eligible for an Omnipod trial, plus find full safety info and terms and conditions at www.omnipod.com/riseRESOURCES FOR YOU: The doors for our signature group coaching program are open!

After her diagnosis, Soph didn't hold back on sharing her journey with type one.

I'm so pleased to have had the opportunity to speak to Rachel. We dive deep on an issue that many T1Ds face, which is high blood sugars when breaking your fast. Rachel has been fasting for six months and was initially plagued with very high blood sugars when she would break her fast. After tinkering with her insulin (Humalog to Lyumjev), eating window, and ultimately, adding Metformin to her regimen, she has devised a strategy that works well for her. Insulin resistance can be a sneaky issue that you may not be aware that you have. This episode is definitely worth a listen if you are finding blood sugars to be difficult to manage in your eating window.In addition, Rachel has a very interesting story, and I love the methodical way that she approaches her T1D management! Enjoy!

Today on the pod, we have a Risely coaching alum, Cory Fowler in the house! Cory is 27 years old, lives in New Jersey with his fiance Michelle, and was diagnosed with type one diabetes 10 years ago right before college at the age of 17. Back in March of this year, I shared part of Cory's diabetes story on social media and was not expecting it to be as impactful as it was… Let's just say the response was staggering. In the post, I read a letter that Cory got from his endocrinologist that was incredibly unsupportive, demeaning and eventually led to Cory firing him. You can watch the video on my Instagram HERE. The positive thing that came from Cory receiving that letter was that it motivated him to take his diabetes into his own hands and join Risely's coaching program. In just over three months, Cory's A1C went from 8.4 to a 6.7 and his time in range went from 35% to 60%! I can't wait for you to learn more about Cory's journey finding a new endocrinologist and how he learned how to adjust his insulin needs around his routine to make his diabetes management work for him! Hit the subscribe button and rate and review to help this podcast rise!

Welcome to this week's podcast! Today I'm getting vulnerable with you again and sharing one of the worst high blood sugar days that I've had in a while. In this story-time style episode, I will debrief you on exactly what happened and how Trista, one of the wonderful coaches at Risely, helped me realize that it wasn't just ONE issue but a combination of things that caused such high blood sugars. Whether intentional or unintentional, as T1Ds we are used to hiding the daily ups and downs that we experience from the people around us. This is part of why it can feel like diabetes is such an invisible condition because there's so much that we do daily that no one knows about. My hope is that you can take the lessons from this podcast and apply them to your own life with diabetes, so you feel less alone and more equipped to manage your lows. Hit the subscribe button and rate and review to help this podcast rise! Follow me @lauren_bongiorno and @riselyhealth on Instagram to stay in the loop for when new episodes drop.Send me a DM to introduce yourself with any feedback, questions, or suggestions on topics you'd like us to cover in future episodes.RESOURCES FOR YOU:Get more T1D tips with this free download HERE.Join the Risely T1D community in our free Facebook group HERE. Disclaimer: Nothing you hear on the Reclaim your Rise podcast should be a substitute for personalized professional medical advice.
