UNASHamed
DIABETES
A 4‑week live course to stop letting guilt and shame hold you back, so you can own your diagnosis & become the woman who manages it instead of hiding from it
Happening november 9th-november 30th
(calls will be recorded)
Diabetes isn’t the only thing weighing on you.
You didn’t just get a diagnosis.
You got a story about yourself.
For most women it sounds like:
👉🏼 “I did this to myself.”
👉🏼 “If I’d just had more willpower, I wouldn’t be here.”
👉🏼 “My A1C is proof I’m a failure.”
👉🏼 “My doctor must think I’m lazy.”
👉🏼 “My family is disappointed in me.”
👉🏼 “If I had just cut out sugar, I wouldn't be here.”
And when that’s the story… you don’t feel “motivated.”
You feel ashamed.
You avoid appointments.
You ignore numbers.
You eat in secret and promise to “start over Monday.”
You tell yourself you know what to do, you’re just not doing it.
It’s not that you don’t care.
It’s that shame has made it feel safer to hide than to try or try again.
You are not the problem. The shame is.
Having diabetes or prediabetes does not make you a bad person, a failure, or a lost cause.
But years of:
👉🏼 being talked down to by providers
👉🏼 family comments about weight, food, and “taking care of yourself”
👉🏼 headlines that blame people for “bringing diabetes on themselves”
… have trained you to see your diagnosis as a punishment instead of a body asking for a different kind of care.
Unashamed Diabetes is where that changes.
Before you can follow any nutrition plan, exercise routine, or blood sugar strategy…
… you have to stop beating yourself up for needing one.
What Unashamed Diabetes actually is
This 4‑week live course IS:
✅ A safe space to drop the guilt and shame about your diagnosis
✅ A place to change the way you talk to yourself and think about your body
✅ A gentle on-ramp into feeling capable of managing this condition
✅ A taste of what it’s like to be supported instead of judged
This 4‑week live course is NOT:
❌ A meal plan or diet challenge
❌ A workout program
❌ A deep dive into diabetes physiology or medication
It’s the step before all of that.
By the end of these 4 weeks, you’ll feel like a woman who can face her diagnosis…
so that when you are ready to learn the nutrition and blood sugar tools, you can actually use them.
This is for you if…
You’ve been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes or prediabetes and feel a lot of guilt about it
You avoid checking your blood sugar or booking appointments because you’re scared of being judged
You constantly talk to yourself in harsh, punishing ways about food, your body, or your numbers
You know you “should” be doing more, but the shame keeps you stuck and frozen
You’re tired of feeling like you caused this and deserve to suffer
You want to feel calmer, kinder to yourself, and actually ready to make changes — without another restrictive diet
If you already know you want long-term support with food, movement, and blood sugar, this 4‑week course is the emotional foundation that makes those changes possible.
What we'll do together in 4 weeks
Week 1: You Are Not Your A1C
Week 2: Changing The Voice In Your Head
Week 3 – Guest Speaker You’re Not Lazy, You’re Carrying A Lot
Week 4 – Becoming The Woman Who Manages This
Here's what's included when you join Unashamed Diabetes:
4 x weekly live Zoom sessions (60–75 minutes) with teaching, reflection, and gentle coaching
1 x live guest session with a psychologist who also lives with type 2 diabetes
Private Slack community for the 4 weeks for questions, support, and accountability
Simple, doable weekly challenges to help you practice what we cover
Replays of all sessions if you can’t attend live
This is not a passive watch-and-forget course. It’s a live experience where you are held, seen, and supported as you begin relating to your diagnosis, and yourself, differently.
faq
I feel like I should be focusing on food and exercise. Is this really the right place to start?
If beating yourself up about food & movement actually worked, it would have worked by now. This course gives you the emotional safety & self-respect you need before any plan can stick. After these 4 weeks, you’ll be in a much better place to actually use nutrition & exercise guidance — whether that’s with me in the 12‑week or elsewhere.
I already know a lot about diabetes. Will this still help me?
Most of my clients don’t have an information problem. They have a self-blame, avoidance, & burnout problem. Unashamed Diabetes isn’t about teaching you more facts. It’s about changing the way you relate to the facts you already know, so they stop feeling like a verdict & start feeling like data you can work with.
What if I can’t make the calls live?
Replays will be available for all sessions. You’ll still be able to follow along, post your reflections in Slack, & get support. That said, if you can make it live for even one or two sessions, you’ll feel the shift more powerfully.
Is this only for women?
Yes. This round is specifically for women living with diabetes or prediabetes. My 12‑week group is also women-only, and this keeps the space focused and safe.
Will you tell me what to eat or change my medications?
No. We won’t be prescribing diets, changing meds, or replacing your healthcare team. We’ll be working on the shame, self-talk, & emotional weight that make it so hard to even use the medical care and information you already have.
Will you talk about your 12‑week program?
Yes, near the end of the 4 weeks, I’ll share how my 12‑week coaching group supports women with the nutrition, movement, & blood sugar skills to build on the emotional work we’ve done here. There’s no pressure to join, but if you know you want more support, you’ll have a clear next step.
