47: Talking Diabetes and Entrepreneurship with SkirtMyPump Founder, Erin Calhoun-Dulaney

The Pursuit of Freedom

Join me as I chat to Erin Calhoun-Dulaney - type 1 diabetic, mum and founder of Skirt My Pump.

Erin shares what it's like to live with Type 1 Diabetes and we dispel some common myths before diving into how her company, SkirtMyPump, came to be.

Erin's invention, the SkirtMyPump slip offers an innovative way to discretely (and comfortably!!) wear your insulin pump for those occasions where you want to focus to be on your outfit not your pancreas!!
