Marcia Hines: Queen of Pop Opens Up About Life With Type 1 Diabetes
Sobre este podcast
Drew’s Daily Dose Podcast is your new destination for inspiring, meaningful conversations with people who are thriving with type 1 diabetes—and beyond.
I’m Drew Harrisberg—a happy, healthy guy thriving with type 1 diabetes. I’m also an exercise physiologist with a postgraduate certificate in diabetes education and management. In this podcast, I dive deep into the lives of incredible individuals living with or connected to diabetes—athletes, artists, health professionals, and anyone who inspires me to grow.
We explore what they eat to manage their diabetes and fuel their performance, how they move their bodies, navigate daily life, and the mindset that helps them show up as their best selves.
Some episodes feature a special segment called What’s On Your Plate, where my guest and I share a plant-forward meal, track our glucose, administer insulin, and unpack our real-time strategies for diabetes management.
But this podcast isn’t just about diabetes—it’s about living fully, with purpose and vitality. Expect stories, science, and your daily dose of inspiration and education.
