Diabetes Late Nite Podcast Inspired by Maren Morris Coming In April

Country’s brightest star, Maren Morris inspires GIRL TALK about the challenges of living with diabetes on Divabetic’s Diabetes Late Nite podcast scheduled for Tuesday, April 14, 2020, 6 PM, EST.

Do you know that being a woman with type 2 diabetes poses distinctive challenges along the path to tight diabetes management? 

“Many of the challenges due to diabetes women face are related to their hormones — namely, estrogen and progesterone”, says Gregory Dodell, MD.

Additionally, when it comes to getting treatment for type 2 diabetes, women may have much more of an uphill battle compared with men.  A review of 21 scientific studies from around the world, published in the Indian Journal of Public Health, observed that women deal with many more types of care-related obstacles. These include personal, economic, psychological, and health system–based barriers.

“Among those with diabetes, women were less likely than men to receive the care recommended by guidelines, and women received less-intense therapy and monitoring,” said  Neethu Suresh, PhD.

Women also tend to give less of a priority to their own health, and they often lacked family and social support to get medical attention compared to men. 

Our Diva Inspiration, Maren Morris has opted to do things her own way, shirking convention and obliterating expectation at every turn.

Her new album, Girl offers a masterclass in country rock (“All My Favorite People,” which features Brothers Osborne), super-sized pop (“Girl”), and pulsating soul (“Make Out With Me”). “The Feels” is anchored by a reggae groove, while “Flavor” and “RSVP” embrace heady ’90s-era R&B. 

“Getting married made me want to better myself and figure out why I do the things I do,” Maren Morris says of the decision to look beyond her songbook for relief. “And, for my own mental health, as I go deeper and deeper into this world of music, I need another outlet besides writing songs to get out what I’m feeling.”

Throughout this podcast we will be featuring music from Maren Morris’s Girl album courtesy of SONY Music.
