Pop the kettle on and join us, this week’s podcast episode is a chatty one! My guest Eoin Costelloe was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes in 2012 at the age of 19 at home in Dublin, Ireland. Since then he’s grown an incredible online following with his approach to what he calls ‘redefining’ diabetes, setting up a personal training business specifically for diabetics, and in 2020 he launched The Insuleoin podcast.
This episode is much more of a two way dialogue and incredibly relaxed one at that, because Eoin has a natural way of making you want to talk to him – as all the best interviewers do. With that in mind you should definitely check out The Insuleoin Podcast if you haven’t already! And not just because episode 77 features yours truly…
Warm, open and gregarious, Eoin discusses his approach to life with diabetes and how structure, perspective and some wisdom from his dad have helped him to tackle his condition head on from the start. We chat about what he means by ‘redefining’ diabetes (and why it needs redefining), how he manages living with type 1 diabetes himself alongside being in the diabetes space professionally, and why he wouldn’t change his diagnosis – such is the extent of the fulfilment he gets from helping people to live better with type 1 diabetes. Enjoy!
