Juicebox Podcast: Type 1 Diabetes

If you think Type 1 Diabetes is just about insulin and blood sugar, Juicebox will blow that notion wide open. This podcast doesn’t just educate—it immerses. It’s a raw, riveting, and refreshingly multidimensional look at life with Type 1, where science meets soul, and advocacy meets everyday hustle. Each episode balances the science of T1D with the human side, featuring deeply personal stories. It’s not just data—it’s data with a heartbeat. Interviews with experts, tidbits on technology, and myth-busting segments. First-hand accounts of diagnosis and navigating life with diabetes, and the mental toll of constant vigilance. Whether you’re newly diagnosed or a seasoned T1D warrior, the podcast offers something for everyone. There’s practical clarity on diabetes lingo and management basics , but also gritty wisdom from people who’ve lived, learned and are eternally striving to tame the diabetes beast! Juicebox doesn’t sugarcoat (pun intended). It celebrates victories—but also sits with the hard stuff: burnout, misdiagnosis, and the fear of complications. It’s a rollercoaster, but one you feel seen riding.Through the Highs: Empowerment, community, breakthroughs etc and the Lows: Isolation, stigma, variables and body betrayal etc. Episodes explore the tension between wanting to be understood and wanting to be invisible. From kids navigating school lunches to adults explaining their pump at TSA, the podcast honors the delicate balance of being different while trying to blend in. Sharing Quiet resilience, private routines, subtle adaptations. Some guests are loud and proud advocates, turning their diagnosis into a platform. Others just want to live their lives without being defined by it. The podcast respects both paths, showing that there’s no “right” way to do diabetes. Juicebox captures the constant daily grind, the small wins, the heroic warriors that battle diabetes! The episodes balance both the realities & the possibilities, the human side and the science side, the education side and the street smarts, the ups & downs, standing out while fitting in, advocacy vs normalcy, urgency vs preparation and the experiments and the experiences! Juicebox is more than a podcast—it’s a lifeline. Scott has such a remarkable gift for conversation & has created a much needed and powerful space in the diabetic community! It’s the kind of show that makes you laugh, cry, learn, and reflect—all in one episode. Whether you’re living with Type 1, loving someone who is, or just curious about what it really means to manage a chronic condition 24/7, this podcast delivers truth with tenderness and grit with grace. Rating: 5/5 syringes 🩸🩸🩸🩸🩸

I’ve laughed, I’ve cried, and I’ve learned so much from the Juicebox podcast. When my daughter went into DKA it was the most terrified I’ve ever been in my life. Thanks to what my wife, my daughter, and I have learned from this show, she is now doing completely awesome with her diabetes management. Hearing interviews with other parents was unexpectedly therapeutic for me during those first few months. Between medical appointments and management episodes, those conversations made me laugh, made me cry, and helped me move beyond constant anxiety, guilt, and worry into a place of real hope. The Juicebox podcast doesn’t just share information — it gives practical guidance, emotional support, and community to families navigating a type 1 diagnosis. I can’t recommend it highly enough.

This podcast is amazing 🤩 It has helped me is much! It made managing me diabetes is much easier. Scott makes it not boring like other podcasts. My A1C went from the mid sevens and now I am in the sixes. Scott’s podcast is just amazing. I have only been a type one for about 2 years. My a1c was around 12.5 at diagnosis and in less than 2 months my a1c was 7.0 and now it is 6.2. This podcast is an amazing learning tool. I am not an adult but it helps me manage. Highly recommended this podcast.🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩 I give 5 stars if I could it would be 100,000,000!🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩 Also, my dad was on the podcast, but his episode did not get out yet but he was on a year ago

My son was diagnosed last year 02/22/24 and I was told about juicebox from one of the T1D mom groups I'm in. At first I was like I don't listen to podcast that's not for me. It took me months and I mean MONTHS to actually tell myself this is important you need to just try it. So I did and I loved the information... so much that I went back to the beginning from 2015 and now I'm in the process of catching up! I'm thankful for this podcast and I find myself crying, laughing, intrigued and all the feelings listening to it. I respond back to questions while driving like they are going to hear me lol. Needless to say I 10/10 recommend this podcast! Very informative and helpful
