Episode 35: A Type 1 Conversation with Jye Warren

In this episode, Jacqui sits down with Jye Warren, a dad, social worker and person living with type 1 diabetes, for an honest and deeply human conversation about diagnosis, mental health, masculinity, parenting and finding the right support. Diagnosed at 25, Jye shares what it was like navigating type 1 diabetes as a young adult with limited education, minimal support and the realities of young adult social life. He speaks candidly about burnout, denial, complications and the turning point that came with fatherhood and finally finding a healthcare team that truly understood him. This episode also includes a special and heartfelt conversation between Jye and Jacqui's son Harvey, offering a powerful glimpse into peer connection and what it means for kids living with type 1 diabetes to feel seen and understood.
