The Diacast: A Podcast About Diabetes

Talking It Out - dealing with misconceptions, ignorance, and people

Elizabeth Baker, Amy Steiner Season 2 Episode 7

Liz and Amy are joined by diabetic and pediatric nurse Paige to talk about their experiences interacting with other people when it comes to talking about diabetes. Dispelling misinformation, combined with the (perceived) need to educate others about diabetes can be exhausting and frustrating. The gang shares how they deal with other people’s misguided “helpfulness” and discuss the misinformation rampant within the medical and diabetes communities.

We’d love to hear your stories and tips for dealing with other people!
