What happens when you're told you have type 2 diabetes… but your body keeps telling you something isn't right? In today's conversation, I'm joined by Linnea May Huxford, author of the book Success with LADA Diabetes, as we unpack one of the most misunderstood forms of diabetes: LADA (Latent Autoimmune Diabetes in Adults). Linnea shares her personal story of being misdiagnosed with type 2 diabetes at 31 years old, despite having classic symptoms of autoimmune diabetes. We discuss the emotional toll of delayed diagnosis, the importance of proper testing, and why so many adults are still falling through the cracks. Inside this episode, we cover: What LADA diabetes actually isWhy adults are often misdiagnosed as type 2Important testing: antibody panels + C-peptideWhy insulin is not something to fearCGMs, pumps, and learning to "sugar surf"Hormones, perimenopause, and insulin resistanceMental health and diabetes burnoutThe difference between managing diabetes and micromanaging itWhy women especially experience more unpredictable blood sugars during hormone shiftsThe importance of community, advocacy, and self-trust This conversation is compassionate, educational, and deeply validating for anyone living with insulin-dependent diabetes—especially women navigating midlife hormone changes. Linnea also shares why she believes earlier diagnosis and awareness could dramatically change long-term outcomes for millions of people living with LADA worldwide.
