This week, it’s one thing to push yourself when you live with type 1 diabetes.. we talk a lot about extreme athletes with T1D, but it’s another thing to live with diabetes when others rely on you for their safety.

Most of us wouldn’t think twice about using someone else’s emergency glucagon if our child or another adult needed it. But that’s something a school nurse or other health care provider could lose their license over. Now, some states are passing legislation to make it easier for anyone to use any one’s rescue glucagon. We talk to Georgia State Rep. Doug Stoner and his wife, Trip Stoner, a long-time diabetes advocate who lives with type 1 about what they were able to get passed in their state, what you can do to take action in yours, and what they’re planning next to help people with diabetes.

This week, a new project to show an adventurous side of diabetes. a documentary about extreme athletes with type 1. The film makers are interviewing snowboarders, kayakers and professional athletes like Indy Driver Conor Daly and Soccer's Jordan Morris. Director Dylan Leonard talks to me about why he wanted to make this movie – he lives with type 1 – how they’re going about it and why he thinks – in an age when we can see people with T1D doing all sort of amazing things – like playing in the NFL or serving on the Supreme Court – this type of film is still needed.

Meet three young adults who are all in the spotlight AND have type 1 diabetes. NFL player Chad Muma, actor Mary Mouser, and professional race car driver Ryan Reed took part in a panel discussion at this summer's Friends for Life conference. The moderator is CNN correspondent Oren Liebermann, who also lives with T1D. I attended this panel in person and thought it would be fun to bring to a wider audience. One of the things you don’t hear is a short film about Chad Muma that was shown at the start of the panel.. it’s a great look at how he kept his dream of playing in the NFL going after his diagnosis.

For adults with type 1, an initial misdiagnosis of type 2 diabetes is unfortunately, all too common. What’s perhaps more unusual is what happened to this week’s guest who was correctly diagnosed by TikTok! Justin Eastzer talks to me about the community support he found even before he was correctly diagnosed, how it led him to creating his own diabetes videos and content – you may know him better as Diabetech, and how his experience with cancer as a very young adult shaped his life.
