Science + Support for Type 2 Made Simple
I'm a clinician who has cared for thousands of patients with type 2 diabetes, and I've also watched my own family navigate the challenges of this condition. Those experiences shaped my mission: to help people stabilize their blood sugar and feel confident in their daily choices—without overwhelm.
With the blend of clinical expertise and compassionate coaching, I guide you through a simple, science-backed process. Together, we shift your mindset, simplify your routines, and build sustainable habits that support long-term health and steady blood sugars.
You're Not Alone
Over 38 million Americans live with diabetes (about 1 in 10)—and nearly 95% of them have type 2 (CDC). Diabetes care is more than lab results and medications—it's learning to make daily choices with confidence and ease. That's where Type 2 Shift™ steps in.
The Type 2 Shift Coaching Framework™:
The Type 2 Shift Coaching Framework™:

Built on the Type 2 Shift Coaching Framework™, it transforms complex diabetes science into simple, sustainable habits—so daily management feels easier, not overwhelming.
This isn't another diet plan or generic advice— it's a science-backed, coaching, supported method rooted in clarity, behavioral change, and compassionate guidance.

Meet your coach— Azaret Villeda, FNP
I've been caring for patients since 2016 as an ICU nurse and, since 2021, as a Nurse Practitioner specializing in endocrinology. I've completed my life coaching certification and am currently finishing my Health Mindset certification as well as the requirements for the Certified Diabetes Care & Education Specialist (CDCES) credential. This unique blend of clinical expertise and coaching tools allows me to translate the science of diabetes into simple, sustainable strategies—so that you feel both supported and empowered on your journey.
Simple Wins. Real Change.
The research is clear: small, consistent actions create meaningful shifts in type 2 diabetes.
A 10-minute walk after meals has been shown to significantly reduce post-meal glucose spikes (Hashimoto et al., 2025).
Brief mindset and behavioral-based coaching reduces diabetes distress and improves adherence to healthy habits (Chima, 2021).
That's why the Type 2 Shift Method™ blends science + mindset +simple daily actions—helping you build habits that are realistic, sustainable, and grounded in evidence.
Small wins add up. Real change follows.
