## Resource

The teenage years can bring a unique set of challenges for young people living with Type 1 diabetes. As independence grows, so do the demands of managing a chronic condition alongside school, friendships, sport, social pressures and the desire to simply fit in. In this episode, Jacqui is joined once again by Angie Manzke from Reflective Haven to explore the emotional side of Type 1 diabetes during adolescence. Together, they discuss diabetes burnout, motivation, responsibility, family dynamics and how parents can continue to support their teenagers without creating conflict or pressure. Angie shares practical strategies for understanding what's happening beneath the surface when a young person starts disengaging from their diabetes management and explains why connection, compassion and nervous system awareness are often more powerful than reminders, rewards or consequences.
