Getting diagnosed with type 2 diabetes can feel overwhelming. Fear, denial, guilt, sadness — it’s an emotional rollercoaster that many people don’t talk about enough. In this episode of The Beating Diabetes Lifestyle Podcast, Oscar gets real about what happens after that diagnosis and how to move forward with hope and purpose.

November is National Diabetes Awareness Month, and if you’ve recently been diagnosed — or you’ve been living with diabetes for less than a year — this message is especially for you. Oscar shares his own story of being 268 pounds, newly diagnosed, and determined to turn things around through small, consistent steps.

You’ll learn:

  • How to process the emotional side of a diabetes diagnosis
  • Why mindset and self-compassion are key to lasting change
  • Simple, practical ways to start reclaiming your health today
  • How physical and mental wellness work hand-in-hand

Oscar also challenges listeners to take action this month — whether that means signing up for a 5K walk or run, reading one book on nutrition, or simply learning more about how your body works. Progress starts with one small step.

If you’ve been wondering where to start, this episode will help you see that your story isn’t over — it’s just getting started.
