My Sleep Data Changed Everything About My Diabetes

Sleep, blood sugar management, and recovery are more connected than most people realize. Especially when you live with a chronic illness like type 1 diabetes (T1D)!
In this episode, I talk with Josh Webb about what a year of wearable data can reveal about T1D, overnight blood sugars, and the patterns that shape the next day.
We break down how sleep quality, heart rate, recovery, and activity may influence blood sugar stability, and why more personalized diabetes management could change the way we make decisions.
If you’ve ever felt like diabetes is unpredictable, this conversation offers a clearer way to understand the cycle. It doesn't have to be so chaotic after all!
