    This amazing episode is more of the mental load of not only having celiac disease, but having Type 1 Diabetes as well. We also talk about more fun topics - like her all women's gluten free treat in Costa Rica and her Gluten Free Food Truck event at the end of May! PLUS she gives a 25% discount code to her merch at the end of this episode. So make sure to listen to the entire episode!
