Found beta cell about six months ago, and it was honestly a breathe of fresh air. As an introvert, I tend to keep a close circle, but none of them are type ones. So stumbling upon beta cell was exactly what I needed. Everything is so honest, and it makes me feel like I’m not alone.

Fantastic

I&#39;m partial to listening to Laura, Craig and James on Out of Range for their honest and brave conversations around the topic of living with T1 diabetes. I&#39;m also impressed by the wide range of satellite shows and topics Craig has created surrounded family and friends of T1d&#39;s.

So practical and honest! The best!
