Adjusting to a Type 2 Diabetes Diagnosis - PR Pro Matt Friedman

Adjusting to a Type 2 Diabetes Diagnosis - PR Pro Matt Friedman

My guest is Matt Friedman, an expert in public relations who lives with type 2 – we get his take on what's going on in PR these days – with social media, crisis control, and even CHatGPT and AI – and of course we'll talk about diabetes, and the bone Matt has to pick with restaurants.

I love talking abou technology and the majority of these episodes will be about management tools and techniques, but I've also learned that personal stories – talking to people JUST living with diabetes – can be extremely helpful. This episode is one of those people focused ones.

We'll also talk about carbs - why do people with diabetes measure carbohydrates and not sugar?

Also this week, as long as we're talking about insulin, we'll define the different kinds.
