Have you been told your A1C is “in range,” yet you still feel frustrated, weaker than you should, and stuck on medications you never planned to take for life?

Hosted by two pharmacists who’ve worked inside the healthcare system, this podcast exists to do what most appointments never had time for: Treat you like a human, not a diagnosisExplain why your blood sugar is high — not just how to medicate itShow you how strength, food, and daily habits can change the root problem Each week, we break down: How to lower blood sugar without piling on more medsWhy “A1C in range” isn’t the same as true healthHow to rebuild strength, confidence, and controlWhat your doctor should have explained on day one No hype. No fad diets. No shame. Just clear, practical guidance from pharmacists who believe you deserve more than lifelong prescriptions — and who know remission is possible with the right plan. If you want to feel strong again, make decisions with confidence, and work toward a future with fewer (or no) medications… This podcast is for you.

    #41- 5 Reasons You Know What to Eat for Better Blood Sugar (But Still Don’t)

    Most people already know what they should eat to improve their blood sugar. That’s not the problem. In this episode, we break down five reasons knowing what to eat doesn’t always translate into doing it, and why that’s not a character flaw. We cover: ·       How too many choices (the buffet effect) sabotage decisions ·       Why environment beats willpower ·       How stress hijacks the brain and drives quick-energy eating ·       The trap of comfort eating disguised as self-care ·       Why too many rules create paralysis instead of progress This is not about trying harder.  It’s about fewer decisions, better defaults, and building a system that actually works. If you’ve ever thought, “I know what to do, I just don’t do it,” this episode is for you. Ready to take control of your health and stop settling for “managed” diabetes?   Grab your earbuds and listen in.

    #40 - Making Sense of Statins and Cholesterol in Diabetes

    Hi listeners! Statins are commonly recommended for people with diabetes, but the reasons why can be confusing. Especially when your doctor only spends a few minutes with you. In this episode, we break down how cholesterol relates to cardiometabolic risk, how statin decisions can be made, and where tools like coronary artery calcium (CAC) scoring can help. Our goal is simple: help you understand the conversation so you can have better, more informed discussions with your healthcare team. And to do this, we bring in an expert on the subject. Austin Dudzinksi is a board-certified clinical pharmacy specialist with interest in nutrition and metabolism and owner of the digital healthcare communications company, Digital Conversation.  In this episode, Austin gives you a masterclass on cholesterol, calcium scoring, and cardiometabolic disease. If you have diabetes and cholesterol questions, this episode is a can’t miss.

    Hi listeners! This Rapid-Fire Friday hits three questions you need to know the answer to on your road to remission!

    #38 - The New Dietary Guidelines: What They Get Right and What Still Matters for Blood Sugar

    Hi listeners! The new Dietary Guidelines for Americans are out, and for the first time in decades, they’re pointing in a direction that actually supports metabolic health. In this episode, we break down what the guidelines finally get right for blood sugar and Type 2 diabetes, where they still fall short, and why guidelines alone don’t change health: implementation does. We cover: ·       Why “eat real food” is the biggest win in the new guidelines ·       How ultra-processed foods quietly drive insulin resistance ·       The underrated role of protein in blood sugar stability ·       The highest-ROI move for improving blood sugar (hint: stop drinking sugar) ·       And more! If you’re confused by the headlines, tired of nutrition dogma, or trying to improve blood sugar in the real world, this episode cuts through the noise with clarity and practicality.

    Hi listeners! This week we tackle the dreaded “F” word keeping your blood sugar high. And yes, it is EXACTLY what you think it is: Friction (that’s what you were thinking, right?) We dive into the importance of putting more friction on the habits that keep your blood sugar high, while removing the friction on the habits that will help bring your blood sugar down…for good! From combining TV watching with exercise, hiding away those sweet and salty snacks, and getting your gym clothes out the night before, this episode is going to change the way you think about…changing your habits.  Plus, we offer up a chance for the two of us to do an audit of YOUR habits on a future episode! This episode is sure to turn the “F” word in your favor for better blood sugar.

    #35 - If You’re Only Managing Your Blood Sugar, You’re Missing These Two Things

    Hi listeners! In today’s episode, we’re zooming out from blood sugar numbers and talking about two factors that quietly determine whether health changes actually stick. Most people are taught to manage diabetes by focusing harder on food rules, medications, and numbers. But without managing energy and expectations, even the best plan eventually falls apart. In this episode, we break down: Why going “all in” often leads to burnout instead of progressHow misaligned expectations drain energy and motivationThe difference between short-term intensity and long-term skill buildingWhy slowing down is often the fastest path to better blood sugar and real freedomThis conversation is about playing the long game — building habits that fit real life, not perfect weeks.
