Part 2 of Eoin's chat with Kyle Banks (@conclaveentertainment).
Kyle was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes on November 1, 2015 while performing with the travelling production of Disney’s The Lion King.
Performing nightly for sold out audiences across the country was a dream come true, but after experiencing symptoms of the onset of type 1 diabetes, the dream temporarily turned into a nightmare.
The symptoms he experienced were typical for the onset of Diabetes, weight loss (- 30lbs), thirst, frequent urination, but with limited knowledge of type 1 diabetes, he had no idea what was occurring, or the drastic life change that would soon follow.
In 2020, he founded Kyler Cares in partnership with Children’s Hospital New Orleans and has since connected with families from across the country that are living with Type 1 Diabetes.

Kyler Cares seeks to improve health outcomes for people of colour living with Type 1 diabetes, and ensuring families can access the resources and technology available for better management.

Part 2 of this week's episode where Eoin chats with one of his clients inside his “Type 1% Better” Programme - an inside look into the programme itself.
Along with many other features, Eoin’s Type 1% Programme has a private podcast for just the members, and one of the webinars they do on a regular basis is a “Client Hot Seat’, which essentially looks into the success of current members of the community, and how they achieve what they achieve inside the programme.
This inspires and motivates each member inside the group!
Before, Mark was admittedly struggling with...
- His blood sugar time in range %.
- He knew his A1C wasn’t where he wanted it, and was just the average of too many highs and too many lows each day.
- He was putting a lot of time, energy, and effort into his training, but not seeing any of the results he wanted - leading to fatigue and frustration.
Since then, he’s “made more progress in the last 6 months, than I have over the last 6 years!”
- Mark has built a significant amount of strength and muscle (without spending hours in the gym each day).
- Completed a 4km swim, a 6km swim, and his first ever triathlon, all while keeping his blood sugar in the exact place he wanted.
- Increased his blood sugar time in range % to 90+ each day, week, and month (where he feels his best).
- Travelled to Brazil eating + drinking unpredictable foods, confidently keeping blood sugars in check.
- As a result, now has more energy, better quality sleep, clearer focus in work.
Mark has some gold to share with us, and practical tips on how he’s made such an incredible transformation!
Getting a detailed insight into how other members of the programme operate is invaluable to your own progress!”

In today’s episode Eoin chats with Ronnie Van Der Linden (@ronnievdlinden).
Ronnie is from the Netherlands, and he was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes at the age of 6.
Ronnie admittedly didn't take care of his health or his Diabetes management for 17+ years growing up. It wasn’t until he was older that he decided to go for a check up with his doctor, and received some unpleasant news about the health of his kidneys.
In this episode Ronnie speaks about:
- Growing up with T1D.
- Kidney health and what to look out for.
- His experiences with disordered eating.
- Using “bad” news as a catalyst for change.
- And much more!

Eoin acknowledges that being on top of your management is hard; but then points out that dealing with the realities of neglecting your management is a lot harder. The same with staying fit, pre bolusing, choosing the right foods etc.
If this shift in mindset is implemented, the benefits will be massive.

Part 2 of Eoin's chat with Emmabella Rudd (@emmabellarudd).
Emmabella Rudd is a 22-year-old Diabetes advocate and activist. Upon being diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of 5, she decided she would do everything in her power to advocate for the diabetes community.
At 11-years-old, Rudd began advocating to her legislators on Capitol Hill on Diabetes research and policy, which sparked her passion for social change and government. To this day, Rudd has raised over $350,000 for diabetes research and has educated thousands of students through her advocacy work. In April of 2022, she gave a TED Talk, “Diabetes Isn’t a Death Sentence, If you Can Afford It.”
While pursuing her graduate degree in Washington, D.C., she interned at the White House for the Policy Office of the Vice President.
Emmabella has written her own legislation in the State of Florida and is currently working towards lowering insulin prices on both the Federal and State levels. She has tirelessly worked to advocate for legislation and policies to lower insulin prices and make insulin more accessible in the United States. Her experience has inspired her work to be a voice for those disproportionately impacted by the U.S. Healthcare system.

Part 2 of Eoin's chat with Lucas Clarke (@clarke.73).
Lucas has been living with Type 1 Diabetes for about 2 years. He is an exceptional weight lifter training out of Glasgow City Barbell, and has recently competed in the British Weightlifting Championships.
Lucas had a rough few years leading up to two separate conditions; Crohn’s Disease and Type 1 Diabetes. But despite these rough times, where Lucas admittedly was the ‘lightest and weakest’ he’s ever been, almost close to dying, he’s since consistently beaten his personal best in the gym, has represented Scotland in the sport he loves, and competed in the British Championships!
All while learning to appreciate the smallest moments in his life.

Charlotte is a Chiropractor in the UK, who runs her own practice. Charlotte has always been an avid athlete competing in marathons, triathlons and more, but at the age of 28, her life took a very unexpected turn when she was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes.

In April, Charlotte completed the Marathon De Sables, which is a 250km ultra endurance event through the desert, in 55 degree heat (celcius!).
This episode is one of the most inspiring and motivating you’ll hear to date.

- An early analogy he was told about “stirring a pot”.
- Why the answer to the question “what is control to you” is completely subjective to use all.
- Why it’s so important to know how you “want to live with your Diabetes”.

Part 2 of Eoin's chat with Karen Green.
Karen is a member of Eoin’s Type 1% Programme and was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes at the age of 45. To say that her diagnosis was intense, dramatic, and terrifying would be an understatement.
She was initially misdiagnosed as Type 2 Diabetic for 9 months, which saw her living her life with blood sugar levels above 22mmol/L consistently. It wasn’t until a ‘lucky’ urine test that Karen discovered she was close to kidney failure, and had to rush into the hospital emergency room.

“AJ has been with us for a number of months, joining us just recently after he was diagnosed with T1D.
Within that time he has gone from being…
- Stressed
- Overwhelmed
- Uncertain
- ‘Afraid to eat carbs’
To…
- Gaining 20 pounds of muscle
- Hitting 90% TIR weeks
- Bursting with confidence around his health and Diabetes management!
AJ has some gold to share with us, and practical tips on how he’s made such an incredible transformation!

3 step process that Eoin covers:
- Managing active IOB (insulin on board).
- Increasing carbohydrate intake prior to exercise.
- Setting times for pre exercise / food ‘window’.

Part 2 of Eoin's chat with Holly Witteman.
This was a conversation Eoin knew he would learn a lot from.
Holly is “a professor, a mom, and I have a time-consuming chronic disease. I am a better professor and a better mom when I’m in good health. Although it often feels like these 3 things are competing for my limited time and focus, I try to keep in mind that taking care of my health is an investment in being able to continue to do the things which I care deeply about: care for my family, and do work that I love.”
Holly has written extensively about her life and experience with Type 1 Diabetes so far, that we can all benefit from massively. You can read “Management Lessons Learned From 40 Years With Type 1 Diabetes (T1D)” below:

Part 2 of Eoin's chat with Chris Norwood.
Chris Norwood is a prize-winning author and healthcare advocate.
She is the Founder and Executive Director of Health People - which is a Community Preventative Health Institute (healthpeople.org).
Chris was one of the first journalists to sound an alarm about HIV/AIDS in the early 1980s before it was widely recognized as a deadly epidemic.
She also authored the first book on women and HIV, “Advice for Life: A Woman’s Guide to AIDS.” Which came out in 1987, and became the inspiration for her founding Health People (then known as Health Force) in 1990 as a women’s prevention and support program.
Chris is a pioneer in using peer education to enable communities to take control of their health, and has been recognized nationally and internationally for her work in HIV/AIDS and peer-delivered health education (including Diabetes).
In 2005, Chris was one of just 1,000 women nominated worldwide for a special Nobel Peace Prize for women’s work in community health.
She is a member of the Community Coordinating Council for the Bronx Center to Reduce and Eliminate Ethnic and Racial Health Disparities (Bronx CREED), Center of Excellence at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, the Bronx-Einstein Alliance for Tobacco-Free Health (Bronx BREATHES), the Community Advisory Board of Albert Einstein College of Medicine AIDS Research Center, the Chronic Disease Prevention Group of the NY State Health Department Prevention Agenda Committee. She is also a past member of the Board of Directors of the Public Health Association of New York City.
In this episode Eoin and Chris focus a lot on the reality of insulin access and affordability in the US, something which may be quite alien to you, if you live somewhere else and receive state funded insulin and Diabetes supplies.

Part 2 of Eoin's chat with one of his clients inside his Type 1% Programme, Martin Javor (@javinek87).
Martin was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes over 18 years ago. Throughout this time, admittedly Martin hasn't taken the best care of his health with the condition, and as a result is currently living with the consequences of that.
Within recent months Martin has completely changed his perspective and management of his Diabetes.
- He's dropped 1 stone of body fat.
- He's become the leanest and strongest he's ever been.
- He consistently hits 90 - 100% TIR days, weeks and months (which he shares inside the Type 1% private group).
He's even recently said that because his management and health is the best it's ever been, he "doesn't even mind being Diabetic anymore".
Martin is one of the most mentally and physically strong Diabetics Eoin’s ever come across. And in this Hot Seat he's going to take us through how he does it - and how you can too!

Stress is just one of the factors that adds to further complicating your blood sugar, and in this episode Eoin and Graham go through how Eoin’s recent stress with an exam led to his blood sugar spiking up to 18.5mmol/L (333mg/dL).

Part 2 of Eoin's chat with Ja’fr Yirka, (@the_happy_diabetic)
Eoin wanted to get Ja’fr on the podcast after reading out an email he sent in a couple of weeks ago. His positive energy is infectious and always looks at the world as glass half full, rather than half empty.
Ja’fr was diagnosed when he was 15 in 1970. Since the early 70s, there have been huge leaps in Diabetes management technology and Ja’fr explains how with each advancement in technology, he was able to take his Diabetes more seriously and in turn, he took it more seriously.
Having been a diabetic for over 50 years, his outlook on life is certainly inspiring and is certainly an unbelievable guest to end 2022.

In this week’s episode Eoin chats with the CEO of Pip, Josh Pittman (@pipdiabetes).
Josh has vast knowledge and experience within the healthcare system, and over the years he was seeing the negative impact of traditional Diabetes devices on those living with the condition who had a genuine fear of needles (needle phobia).
As a result of this phobia, people are less inclined to check their blood sugar, less inclined to take insulin, and ultimately less inclined to be as healthy as they can be - short and long term.
This is where the passion for Pip stemmed from, a way to help Diabetics overcome the fear of needles with painless lancets, pen needles, meters and strips, and redefine Diabetes for each individual patient living with the condition. Josh’s own mother lived with Diabetes and he saw the ‘joy’ painless needles brought her!

Eoin and Graham had a specific topic and episode idea today, before completely changing the topic just 2 minutes before recording.
Something that has come up a lot recently for Eoin is his idea of creating a ‘mobile routine’ for your DIabetes management. What can we do that benefits us, that takes up very little time, and keeps us feeling in control, regardless of where we are, what we’re doing, and who we’re with?
Learn how to create a ‘mobile routine’.

Part 2 of Eoin's chat with Daniel Newman (@t1d_dan)
Daniel is from the UK and was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes at the age of 10. Admittedly, Daniel wasn't the best at his diabetes management in the early years. He says himself that as a teen he just wanted to be able to hang around with his friends after school and eat 'junk'.
Daniel has experienced complications from his diabetes which include Diabetic Retinopathy and in 2018 had to undergo a kidney transplant. He believes that Diabetic complications can be seen as a stigma and encourages more people to be open about it.
These days, Daniel is a big member in the diabetic community and even launched his own podcast 'Talking Type 1 Podcast' in 2020 (https://talkingtype1podcast.buzzsprout.com/)

Eoin and Graham go through the differences between the first and second time with the virus, the impact it’s having on Eoin’s blood sugar, steps he takes to stay on top of his blood sugar, and decisions we can make to help ‘simplify’ our management if, and when we’re sick in the future.

Part 2 of Eoin's chat with Conor James Doyle (@conorjmd).

Conor is a Consultant, Educator and Content creator within the hair industry. In 2019 Conor James Education ( linktr.ee/conorjmd ) was born, and has facilitated the up-skilling and education of thousands of industry professionals since.
As Conor says himself, he always “had a constant need to understand the finer details within his craft”, and that’s something that he applies to his education today. He set a goal to create education that is more than just 'copy and paste' techniques, but to offer a deeper understanding into the decisions made as colourists.
Conor has won L'Oréal young colourist, Ladies Colour Trophy, International young colourist, he was nominated as best ‘Beauty Influencer’ as he shares incredible insight, experience and advice to his now 85K+ Instagram followers & 70K+ Tiktok followers (@conorjmd).
Conor’s work has been featured internationally across magazines and platforms including Modern Salon, Ahead Hair Media, Creative Head, Behind The Chair, Hairpainters, Hairbrained official and many many more. He has also educated for platforms including L'Oreal, Redken and HairdressingLive.
There are few things Conor hasn’t done within his industry, and it’s no surprise he’s at the top of his field ( linktr.ee/conorjmd ).

Part 2 of Eoin's chat with Justine Whitchurch (@jusswhitchurch).
Justine is a personal trainer, author, model and motivational speaker ( https://justinewhitchurch.com.au/ ).
Having experienced a near death alcohol addiction, while admittedly at her worst she was consuming “about three bottles of wine a day, and a few shots of vodka”, Justine now lives her life with health and fitness as her core foundation.
Her self-published book ‘Sobriety Delivered Everything Alcohol Promised’ ("Sobriety Delivered Everything Alcohol Promised") outlines the steps she took after hitting rock bottom with just months to live.
Just a few years after Justine was sober, she was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes at the age of 44. Something that came as a massive shock initially, but she feels it came at ‘the perfect time’, and she was prepared for it as her daughter was previously diagnosed with T1D at the age of 7.
Justine openly shares her darkest times, how she survived, and what steps she took to ultimately become the fittest and healthiest she’s ever been.

Lucas has been living with Type 1 Diabetes for just over 1 year. He is an exceptional weight lifter training out of Glasgow City Barbell, and has recently competed in the British Weightlifting Championships.
Lucas had a rough few years leading up to two separate conditions; Crohn’s Disease and Type 1 Diabetes. But despite these rough times, where Lucas admittedly was the ‘lightest and weakest’ he’s ever been, almost close to dying, he’s since consistently beaten his personal best in the gym, has represented Scotland in the sport he loves, and competed in the British Championships!
All while learning to appreciate the smallest moments in his life.

Ryan is from the UK and has been living with Diabetes since the age of 10. He is a personal trainer, nightclub promoter and actor. He is also a reality TV star who was featured on MTV’s Geordie Shore.
Ryan tells us about an ‘issue with his leg’, which started as an infection that quickly turned to sepsis, which then spiralled to even more severe symptoms, pain and consequences.
Ryan spent days in hospital, weeks ‘pumped with morphine and painkillers’, excessively high blood sugars where he needed up to 50 units of insulin in a single dose, followed by consistent low blood sugars when he didn’t need any insulin at all.
Eoin is rarely speechless during an episode of the podcast, but this week was different.

Eoin goes through how and why he has trained himself to avoid reacting emotionally to his blood sugar. He outlines how he analyses his own blood sugar, and how he views it as a ‘challenge’ every time he goes high or low. A challenge which is always warmly welcomed.

Part 2 of Eoin's chat with Vanessa Haydock (@diabetic_health_coach_).
Vanessa is a Type 1 Diabetic living in England, UK. She is a personal trainer, nutrition advisor, life coach, and board certified behaviour analyst (BCBA).
Vanessa was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes at the age of 3 and admittedly wasn’t always taking care of herself as well as she does now.
Vanessa struggled throughout her teenage years and later received a letter at the age of 18 outlining the fact that she had developed Retinopathy. This was the turning point for Vanessa, and overnight she completely shifted her mindset and approach towards her Diabetes management.
She now speaks to thousands of people through her social media channels and sees her work within the Diabetes world as her ‘vocation in life’.

In today’s episode Eoin and Graham go through more ways we can benefit our Diabetes management.
A question that Eoin asks himself (and his clients) is, “what do you want from your Diabetes?”
Identifying what you want, and what you expect from your management, gives you the ability to understand what’s required to get you there (and keep you there).
The ‘numbers’ that you see (TIR% and A1C) aren’t just numbers. What’s important is what those numbers mean to us; our energy, our focus, our time, our mood, our performance, and ultimately, our health.

Part 2 of Eoin's chat with Martin Santise (@martinsantise).
Martin was diagnosed with T1D at the age of 22, and admittedly found it extremely difficult to initially cope with the diagnosis. He found himself in a ‘very dark place’ for the first 6 months of his Diabetic life and thought his ‘normal’ life was completely over.
Following a very tough and honest conversation that Martin had with himself, he flipped his perspective around, worked on his mental and physical health with Diabetes, and has since become a coach and advocate for other T1Ds all around the world.
Martin’s insight, experience and perspective on life with T1D are incredibly valuable, and we know you will take some gold from hearing his story.

Alex is from the USA, is the host of the ‘Rise to the Challenge Podcast’ ( Rise to the Challenge Podcast ), and has been living with Type 1 Diabetes since the age of 10.
Admittedly Alex wasn’t always ‘the best Diabetic’ and went through a number of difficult and ‘rebellious’ years with his management.
It was almost overnight that Alex decided to make significant changes to his management of his Diabetes. He began training consistently, eating different types of foods, paying more attention to his bloods, and completely avoiding fast food that he knew made things more complicated to manage.
Alex talks us through how he ‘rises to his own challenges’, and also outlines how the guests he’s interviewed have risen to their own - whatever that challenge may be.
You’re going to finish this episode feeling inspired to make a lasting change.

Although Matt has only been diagnosed for less than 3 years, he has immersed himself in the ‘Diabetic world’, learning everything he can - listening, reading, and watching any relevant content that would help him improve his own life, and the lives of his clients.
Matt offers guidance around exercise, nutrition, mindset, and reminds us of the reasons why we do what we do. Matt is a huge inspiration to not just newly diagnosed Diabetics, but all Diabetics around the world.

Admittedly, Eoin was quite nervous about this one as he feels “it’s a big one, he has so much to say, and so much to share”, but wanted to see where the episode took him naturally.
Eoin and Graham look back at some stand out moments, some memories, how life would have been without Diabetes, and the perspective Eoin now has on life (with a few familiar voices).

In today’s episode Eoin goes through the experience he had while recently running his first marathon.
Once the lockdowns started in Ireland due to Covid-19, and the gyms closed, Eoin got very involved in longer distance running. The more he ran, the more he enjoyed it, and always said one of his “goals is to complete a marathon this year”.
Eoin takes us through how he “didn’t prepare for it on the day”, why he did a workout in the gym before he started running, and how he compares it to the 48 mile (77km) challenge he completed earlier in the year (running 4 miles (6.4km), every 4 hours, for 48 hours).

Part 2 of Eoin's chat with Katie Piazza Lesley (@katieplesley).
Katie was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes 30 years ago, at the age of 8 and wants to highlight the importance of raising awareness around DKA (Diabetic Ketoacidosis).
12 years after her own diagnosis, Katie’s brother, Nick, was also diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes, at the age of 22.
Throughout her Diabetic years, Katie experienced DKA at different times in her life, and just four years after Nick’s diagnosis, he went into DKA and died.
Since then, Katie’s mission has been to raise awareness around DKA while living with Type 1 Diabetes, to make sure people can see the signs and do what’s necessary to treat it in time.
She has also set up a fundraiser in honour of her brother, Nick, called ‘California Dreamin’, which aims to help college bound students living with Type 1 Diabetes.

Despite only being diagnosed with T1D so recently, Conor already has a very confident and positive outlook around his Diabetes. He takes us through how his life has changed since diagnosis, how he adapted to always get the most out of training, his preparation before and recovery after fights to stay on top of his bloods, his own visualisation of ‘already being there’, and what to expect from him in the future.

Today’s episode is an unexpected one - to say the least. Eoin recently tested positive for Covid-19 and had to completely self isolate for 10 days.
In this week’s episode Eoin takes us through the whole experience and outlines how he and his blood sugar reacted to the virus during his 10 day isolation.
From taking an at-home antigen test and being confirmed negative, to getting an official positive PCR test, blood sugar readings upwards of 23mmol/L and losing all sense of taste and smell, Eoin certainly had an ‘interesting’ couple of weeks.

In today’s episode Eoin and Graham go through more ways we can benefit our Diabetes management, and highlight the importance of patience.
As we already know, living with Diabetes can feel like there’s a million different variables to consider, even with the simplest daily decisions. There’s constant noise all around you and it seems like you can’t take a break.
Even with all this ‘noise’, it’s important that we can pause and be patient to make reasonable decisions and choices that will benefit our daily and long term Diabetes management.
4 ways Eoin practices patience to benefit his management:
- Patience with dosing.
- Patience with high and low blood sugars.
- Patience with yourself.
- Patience with other people who don’t ‘understand’.

Part 2 of Eoin's chat with Geraldine Rogers.
Geraldine is from Ireland and has been living with Type 1 Diabetes for over 60 years. Throughout this episode she offers us her stories, experiences, advice and secrets to living a healthy and happy life with Type 1 Diabetes.
Geraldine outlines how she could only test her blood sugar 4 times a day using urine tests, treated low blood sugars (hypos) with milk, ate at exactly the same time each day and took her insulin at the same time too. Now using an insulin pump, a lot has changed for Geraldine since she was first diagnosed.
Despite claiming that she “wouldn’t thank Diabetes for anything”, Geraldine still highlights how “life is for living, you should enjoy being a Diabetic!” To hear about her health, perspective, and positive mindset is very reassuring for any Diabetic out there.

Part 2 of Eoin's chat with Mary Lennon.
Mary is from County Louth in Ireland and was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes just this year at the age of 38, alongside being diagnosed with Covid-19. Mary is a medical care worker and a medical student.
Mary talks through her diagnosis story and tells us how she was turned away from hospital four times before being officially diagnosed. It wasn’t until she used a friend’s blood glucose monitor to check her levels that she knew something was wrong.
Despite being diagnosed so recently, Mary speaks of how her confidence has grown around the condition as a result of her personal study, connecting with an online community and her family support system. Which all led to her connecting with other Diabetics in her local area and creating a Facebook group for other Diabetics in Louth.

In today’s episode Eoin and Graham go through more ways we can benefit our Diabetes management. More specifically, how to get the most out of your CGM.
Eoin is incredibly grateful for the fact that he has access to a CGM and highlights how “it’s not just about having one, it’s about understanding how to view graphs, patterns and trends so we can get the most out of a CGM”.
It’s important that we use a CGM as an incentive to better our management, not as an excuse to become more complacent.
Areas that Eoin and Graham cover this week:
Understanding how different foods impact our bloods
Being patient with your readings
Not reacting emotionally to your blood sugar
An opportunity for you to help another Diabetes

In today’s episode Eoin and Graham go through the importance of driving safely if you live with Type 1 Diabetes.
Similar to most aspects of life with Type 1 Diabetes, driving can become more difficult. It’s important that we take the necessary steps to ensure that we keep ourselves safe, and other road users safe, any time we get behind the wheel.
It may not seem like something you need to consider, but there is most certainly a driving “must do” checklist.

In today’s episode Eoin speaks with Maya Kearney (@mayakearney).
Maya was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes just last year. But not only that, she was also diagnosed with Covid-19 at the same time! Her severe Covid-19 symptoms had been made even worse by the fact that her body was starting to shut down due to her undiagnosed Type 1 Diabetes.
Despite dealing with so much physically and mentally, on top of a global pandemic, Maya sat her final exams, graduated from college, moved to London and started her first job in an investment bank.
Eoin is admittedly blown away by how well Maya has dealt with her diagnosis and the mindset she has developed as a result. She is a credit to herself and an inspiration to any Diabetic out there who may be struggling.

In this week’s episode of the podcast, both Eoin and Graham have some personal news to share with you. Some good, some not so good (you’ll find out more when they chat to you).
Have you ever wondered why your blood sugar can be so difficult to manage when eating at a restaurant or having take out food?
Today Eoin outlines how, ‘what we eat, can determine how we administer our insulin’. Not all food is created equally or digested at the same rate. Therefore our insulin timing may need to be altered to accommodate for any differences.
Have you struggled to understand why your blood sugar can rise first thing in the morning, even without eating anything?
Eoin and Graham also go through why you can sometimes experience ‘unexplained highs and lows’ first thing in the morning.

In today’s episode of The insuleoin Podcast, Eoin speaks with US airline captain, John Roth.
Admittedly, Eoin was under the impression that Type 1 Diabetics were not eligible to fly planes, particularly commercial flights. But John changed all of that!
John has a very interesting and inspiring story, which outlines how he was a qualified pilot for over a decade, was then diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes and told he was automatically disqualified to fly a plane.
Over the next 5 years John worked endlessly to change federal aviation regulations and to prove that Diabetics are more than capable of flying safely.

This week’s episode of the podcast is a slightly different one.
Last weekend Eoin completed a running challenge of running 4 miles, every 4 hours, for 48 hours, and takes us through the whole experience. He’s been running a lot recently since the gyms in Ireland have closed due to Covid-19 and felt a challenge like this would test him physically and mentally, but also test his blood sugar too.
As Eoin and Graham frequently highlight, Diabetes is like a constant science experiment. Understanding and making sense of your blood sugar around food, exercise, stress and insulin can be complicated. Eoin always claims, ‘there’s no better way to learn about your body and blood sugar than consistent trial and error’.
Eoin makes some predictions of what he feels will happen to his blood sugar throughout the 48 miles and 48 hours, and then outlines exactly how his body and blood sugar respond during the challenge. There’s some surprising results!

In this week’s episode of The insuleoin Podcast, Eoin chats with Jack Anderson (@jackptuk).
Jack is a Type 1 Diabetic from Bristol in the UK, and was diagnosed back in 2015. Jack comes from a very sporty background and like most Diabetics, his diagnosis came as a massive shock.
Jack admittedly didn’t manage his Diabetes too well in the beginning, and didn’t prioritise his health as much as he should have. All that soon changed, fast forward a few short years and Jack is now a Personal Trainer and proudly keeps his health at the top of his list each day.
Just this year Jack completed his first Iron Man (2.4 mile swim, 112 miles cycle, 26.2 mile run). His aim for this challenge was to prove to himself, and other Diabetics out there that Diabetes shouldn’t stop you from achieving great things.

On today’s episode Eoin speaks with Ciara Cray (@balanceandbolus).
Ciara is a Type 1 Diabetic from California, USA and she was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes at the age of 7. Although Eoin and Ciara were diagnosed at completely different times in their lives, they have experienced and continue to experience the similar daily intricacies of a life with T1D.
Ciara (@balanceandbolus) is one of Eoin’s favourite Diabetic social media pages to follow as she ‘epitomises a healthy, balanced life with Type 1 Diabetes’. Throughout this episode, Ciara offers her advice and insight into living a healthy, happy life with the condition. She’s an incredibly reassuring example to anyone living with, or any parent of a child living with Type 1 Diabetes.
Ciara is currently studying Nutrition in pursuit of becoming a Certified Diabetes Educator. She runs her own Type 1 Diabetes blog (balanceandbolus.com) and social media page (@balanceandbolus) where she shares all her experience, expertise, advice and guidance to ensure you too, can get the most out of a life with T1D.

In this week’s episode of The insuleoin Podcast Eoin jumps into a topic he absolutely loves - resistance/weight training!
This episode being the end of the three part fitness trilogy of Cardio, HIIT and Resistance Training, Eoin and Graham wanted to finish it with their favourite style of training.
From the previous two episodes, we now know the impacts and benefits of Cardio and HIIT on our blood sugar, but how will resistance training influence our levels?
Eoin outlines that resistance training is the most beneficial way to train in relation to regulating blood sugar levels. He jokingly claims that ‘when we’re diagnosed we should get an insulin pen and a gym membership’.
Eoin and Graham chat about why you should be resistance training if you’re living with Type 1 Diabetes, what occurs in your body when you workout, what to expect from your blood sugar during this type of exercise, how to keep your levels stable when training, and much more!

In today’s episode Eoin speaks all about HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training).
HIIT has become increasingly more popular over recent years. It’s been the go-to exercise regime during lockdown as you don’t need huge amounts of space, you can use just your bodyweight for all exercises, you don’t need gym equipment and you can work up a heavy sweat in a very short space of time (10 - 30 mins).
But, just because HIIT is a convenient way to exercise, it doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s easy to control blood sugar if you’re Diabetic. Much like all areas of exercise, HIIT can and will have an impact on your blood sugar levels - almost immediately and potentially for hours afterwards too.
Eoin outlines what to expect from your blood sugar during a HIIT workout, a few strategies you can use to ensure your blood sugar is kept at a safe range during, and what tactics need to be implemented after your workout, so you’re confident your levels stay consistent.

In this week’s episode of the podcast, Eoin talks about Cardiovascular training (Aerobic exercise); running, walking, swimming, playing sports etc.
Throughout The insuleoin Podcast Eoin consistently emphasises the importance of regular exercise if you’re living with Type 1 Diabetes. We all know that exercise has plenty of benefits, but it has even more in relation to managing blood sugar. Frequent exercise will work wonders on your blood sugar and greatly increase your insulin sensitivity.
Saying that, it can sometimes feel quite daunting getting into an exercise routine as there are a lot of different factors to consider. The goal is to exercise, workout and train effectively without letting Diabetes get in the way (high and low blood sugars).
Eoin offers advice about how to exercise safely, effectively and confidently despite living with Type 1 Diabetes.

In today’s episode Eoin celebrates his ‘Diaversary’ (anniversary for his Diabetes diagnosis). Eoin was diagnosed back in 2012, and a lot has happened since then!
On the surface, being diagnosed with Diabetes is a terrible, life changing event, but when you dig a little deeper there are positives you can take from it too. Eoin is a big believer in how there are certain incidents or events in our life that are out of our control, but what we can control is how we react and respond to them.
Eoin outlines the 5 main positives that he’s got from living his life with Type 1 Diabetes so far. He explains how he became aware of these positives, and highlights the fact that they never would have occurred without his Diabetes diagnosis.
Although these are positives from Eoin’s own life, they are just as relevant to you too. Eoin also shares how you can discover and identify positives from your own life with Type 1 Diabetes.

This week’s episode of The insuleoin Podcast is all about motivation, discipline and staying consistent with your Diabetes management.
Eoin and Graham are both very motivated and disciplined individuals in relation to their health and respective careers. Graham explains how he stays motivated, where it comes from, and why it’s important to stay consistent each day.
Eoin understands that being motivated, disciplined and consistent as a Type 1 Diabetic is even more important as it will directly impact your physical and mental health each day. Although motivation can come and go, discipline and consistency are what make the biggest differences. Staying disciplined and consistent with your food, exercise, sleep, insulin, meal timing and overall Diabetes management is what ensures that you avoid long term Diabetic complications and live a healthy, happy life with the condition.
Eoin and Graham jump into how you can stay motivated, disciplined and consistent this year and outline how we can all dominate our Type 1 Diabetes as we roll into 2021.

On today’s episode of The insuleoin Podcast, Eoin speaks with Scott Burrell.
Scott is from the UK and has been living with Type 1 Diabetes for over 20 years. Despite living with the condition for this time, Scott admits that he hasn’t always been on top of his Diabetes management.
He tells his story of how he coped with things quite well initially, following his diagnosis, but as he got into his teen years he began to neglect the fact that he had Diabetes. Scott would check his blood sugar just twice a month, only take insulin while at home and refuse to carry hypo treatment while he was out with friends. Which inevitably led to numerous ambulance calls.
There were two dramatic turning points in Scott’s life which resulted in him completely changing his mindset around his Diabetes.
He’s now an incredible advocate for Diabetes health, represents his country at international Futsal Championships and frequently competes in long distance running races - breaking records along the way.

In this week’s episode Eoin talks you through how to keep your blood sugar steady during the holiday season.
As we all know, this time of year can be difficult if you live with Type 1 Diabetes. There’s more food, more alcohol (if you’re old enough), less movement and we’re likely out of our typical routine. All of which can impact our blood sugars.
Eoin breaks down what we can do during this time to ensure that Diabetes doesn’t get in the way of our celebrations. He outlines the importance of planning for carb counting, meal timing, insulin timing, alcohol, chocolate, routine and much, much more!

This week’s episode of the podcast is the most incredible story so far.
Eoin speaks with fellow Type 1 Diabetic, Brandon Mouw. Brandon was diagnosed with Diabetes at the age of 3 and has been living with the condition for 31 years. He has always taken good care of his Diabetes management and is proudly ‘a very healthy Diabetic’.
In 2015, following a sudden, intense pain, Brandon underwent 9 surgeries and had one of his kidneys removed. One problem seemed to lead to another (to say the least) and his last hope of survival was to get a full Pancreas transplant. He wasn’t just facing health difficulties, he was also facing substantial financial difficulties as a result. Brandon had to somehow raise $250,000 in 3 months, just to pay for his life saving surgery.
We’ll let you hear it from him.

From the very first day you’re diagnosed, you’re told about the impact Carbohydrates have on your blood sugar. You’re told to Carb count and ensure that you always counteract the exact number of carbohydrates in a meal with an insulin injection. But what about protein?
There seems to be some misconceptions surrounding the impact that protein will have on your blood sugar. A lot of people believe, and have been told, that protein does not affect your blood sugar levels. Is it really true?
This week Eoin jumps into what protein is, why it’s important, how you can include it in your diet and how it may impact your blood sugar levels.

This week Eoin speaks with someone who’s been there every step of the way - his dad. Eoin has always known how he himself felt around the time he was diagnosed; both physically and mentally, but what were his parents feeling throughout the whole time, and even still to this day?
As Eoin’s dad says himself, “you never stop worrying about your children, no matter what age they are”, but does he worry more now because Eoin is a Type 1 Diabetic?
What were his initial reactions to diagnosis as a parent? Was it something that could have been prevented? How is life going to change? These are all thoughts that will constantly race through a parents mind. Listen first hand to a parent’s perspective.

This week Eoin speaks with Chris Ruden (@chrisruden). Chris is a Type 1 Diabetic and also describes himself as ‘limb different’ - he was born with only two fingers on his left hand and a shorter left arm, he now lives with a prosthetic arm. Despite this, Chris is a motivational speaker, entrepreneur, personal trainer, co-owner of NRG foods, he starred in NBC’s Titan Games with Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson, he is an elite powerlifter and everything in between! Chris epitomises ‘Redefining Diabetes’.
Similarly to Eoin, Chris was also diagnosed at the age of 19 and describes his diagnosis as the ‘catalyst’ to how he has led his life since then. He aims to defuse stereotypical misconceptions surrounding the condition by living a massively active, successful and meaningful life.
Eoin and Chris share a common fascination in the importance of a positive mindset - not just with Diabetes, but in every aspect of your life. In this episode they dive deep into how to stay positive, how to identify a negative situation and what small, yet practical steps you can make to ensure you’re always confident in your ability to overcome any struggle.
