Love it!

Since setting up my Type 1 Insta account I’ve learnt so much from other people. This podcast takes it to another level for me. Real life... real people... sharing their stories that I can relate too so much. Thank you for making me feel so ‘normal’ whatever that is!

Love the unedited raw conversation!

Really enjoyed the first episode of ‘Out of Range’! It’s funny, informative and gives a real life perspective of what living with diabetes is like away from the highlight reel that is instagram! Story telling of the A1c was a highlight in the first episode - great job Craig & Laura!! Definitely subscribed.
