Real Talk. Real Food. Real Life with Type 2 Diabetes

Tired of vague advice like “just lose weight” or “cut carbs”? You’re not alone and you’re not failing. You’ve just been given a plan that wasn’t built for your life.

Welcome to Blood Sugar Unfiltered, the podcast that helps you cut through the confusion of managing type 2 diabetes, prediabetes, and insulin resistance with practical, personalized strategies that actually work.

Hosted by Russ Powell, MS, RD, LD, BC-ADM, CDCES, this bi-weekly show blends clinical expertise and real-life coaching to help you:

• Understand your A1c, fasting glucose, and CGM data without fear
• Build flexible, blood sugar-friendly meals without restriction
• Navigate real-life challenges like stress, cravings, culture, and burnout
• Get results like lowering A1c, reducing meds, and feeling more in control

Whether you’re newly diagnosed, managing women’s health concerns like PCOS or menopause, or just tired of second-guessing every bite you’re in the right place.

Each episode offers clear explanations, mindset shifts, and no-BS advice to help you feel empowered and educated without the shame.

If you’ve been overwhelmed by advice that feels too generic—or shamed for not doing diabetes “perfectly”—this podcast is for you.

In this kickoff episode of Blood Sugar Unfiltered, I’m pulling back the curtain on why I created this show, what makes it different from everything else out there, and how we’re going to navigate real food, real numbers, and real life—together.

By the end of this episode, you’ll know:

• What to expect from the show each week
• Why most advice fails people with type 2 diabetes and prediabetes
• How we’re flipping the script with food freedom, blood sugar strategy, and mindset
• How to grab your first free tool: the 3-Step Fruit Pairing Guide

You don’t need another voice telling you what you “should” be doing. You need tools that actually work in your life—and that’s exactly what you’ll find here.
