Ep.11: The Life of a Low Girl: After Dark

This one is for the grown-up Low Girls. In this episode, we’re going After Dark to talk about the real-life diabetes topics that do not always make it into the daytime conversation: dating, relationships, sex, drugs, alcohol, and all the messy little moments that come with being a person with diabetes who is also, unfortunately, just trying to live their life. We’re getting into the honest questions, awkward stories, safety things we wish people talked about more, and the “wait, has anyone else dealt with this?” moments. A quick heads up: if you usually listen with kids around, save this one for later. Same diabetes realness, just a little more grown up. #LifeOfALowGirl #lowgirlpod #type1diabetes #T1D

Ep.9: LIVE From FFL: Two 8's and a Pump Break

Recorded live at Friends for Life Orlando, this episode of The Life of a Low Girl brings the couch to the FFL stage for a conversation about inhaled insulin and life with type 1 diabetes. Joined by guest Low Girls Ava Fickling and Danica the Diabetic, we share personal experiences and talk about managing high blood sugars, sports, travel, school, growing independence, and taking a break from your pump. Expect honest conversations, practical takeaways, a few laughs, and the kind of real talk that happens when the T1D community comes together. #LifeOfALowGirl #lowgirlpod #type1diabetes #T1D

Ep.8: Hot Weather, T1D & What Actually Holds Up

Summer with T1D is cute in theory until your insulin is overheating, your sensor is peeling off, and everything in your diabetes bag feels like it’s one degree away from melting. In this episode of The Life of a Low Girl, we’re talking about the very real summer side of diabetes: insulin stability, stubborn adhesive, sweat, travel, pool days, and all the tiny things that make managing T1D in the heat feel like a full-time job. We’re sharing practical tips, honest frustrations, and the little things that help us survive the season without fully losing our minds. #LifeOfALowGirl #lowgirlpod #type1diabetes #T1D The Life of a Low Girl podcast is supported by an unrestricted educational grant by MannKind.

Ep. 7: Beyond the Basics: T1D Tools & Apps

There are so many diabetes tools, apps, gadgets, and “you have to try this” recommendations out there, but what actually helps? In this episode of The Life of a Low Girl, we’re talking about the T1D tools and apps that make daily life a little easier, the hacks people swear by, and the things that may not be worth the extra mental load. Basically, we’re sorting through the diabetes tech drawer together.

Ep.6: Summer, Sleepovers & Independence

Kids with T1D deserve the sleepovers, the summer freedom, the adventures, and the chance to just be kids. In this episode, we’re talking about how families navigate the balance between safety and independence: building confidence, making plans, trusting the people around you, and learning how to let go a little, even when it feels scary.

The Waiting Room: Living in the In-Between of T1D

What does it mean to be in Stage 1 or Stage 2 type 1 diabetes? What options are available today, and what breakthroughs may be coming tomorrow? Join the Low Girls as we talk through screening, early detection, delaying progression, and the evolving landscape of type 1 diabetes care. We'll tackle the big questions, share what we're learning, and discuss why the future of diabetes looks different than ever before.

Ep. 3: Life is Lived Off Label

Diabetes rarely fits inside neat clinical guidelines. This episode explores how real life often requires off-label thinking, improvisation, and trusting lived experience. The Life of a Low Girl podcast is supported by an unrestricted educational grant by MannKind.

The Life of a Low Girl | Ep. 2: T1D, Trust & New Tools

Teen diabetes drama? We’ve got thoughts. This week, we’re diving into one of the biggest transitions in life with type 1 diabetes: when parents start loosening the reins and teens start taking the wheel. (Terrifying for everyone involved.) We’re talking about the real stuff: driving with diabetes, sleepovers, sports, late night snacks, forgotten boluses, independence, burnout, and those moments when parents are trying not to text, “What’s your blood sugar?” for the fifth time in an hour. We’re also chatting about Afrezza, why everyone’s talking about it, and how another tool in the diabetes toolkit could change the game for some teens and young adults. Whether you’re the teen asking for more freedom, the young adult figuring things out on your own, or the parent refreshing Dexcom Follow at 2 a.m., you’ll definitely find yourself in this conversation. Grab your favorite low snack and come hang out with us. We promise plenty of laughs, a little chaos, and at least a few moments that will have you saying, “Okay, I thought I was the only one.” The Life of a Low Girl podcast is supported by an unrestricted educational grant by MannKind.

Bonus Let's Talk About FFL Anaheim!

The Low Girls are heading to Anaheim, and obviously we had to talk about it on the couch. In this bonus episode of The Life of a Low Girl, we’re joined by our fellow Low Girl and CWD’s Events + Programs Director, Ashlyn Mills, to talk all things Friends for Life Anaheim: what to expect, why you should come, the moments that make FFL feel like home, and how this regional conference brings the magic of Friends for Life to the West Coast. We’re also talking about the new Waiting Room Track, created for families navigating Stage 1 and Stage 2 T1D, because no one should have to sit in the “what now?” alone.
