Webinar: Conquering Fear and Embracing Life with Dr. Mark Heyman
Join us for a special T1Dto100 call with Mark Haymen, where he’ll be tackling one of the biggest challenges in T1D management—the fear of low blood sugar. Mark will share practical strategies to help you feel calmer around everyday decisions like bolusing, exercising, and sleeping, using real skills for your nervous system paired with actionable plans that work with your tech and real life. Whether you run high “just in case,” stay glued to your CGM, or avoid activities you love, this conversation is for you. Come ready with questions—Mark will be there to coach you through them.
You’ll learn why your fear of low blood sugars sticks around, the “control trap” that keeps you feeling stuck, and how to retrain your brain to trust your body again. I’ll show you how to rebuild confidence, take your insulin, and stop letting your fear make decisions for you.
Dr. Mark Heyman is a clinical health psychologist, Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist (CDCES), and has been living with type 1 diabetes for over 26 years. He helps people with type 1 diabetes overcome fear, anxiety, and burnout so they can live with confidence and freedom — not fear and restriction. Dr. Mark teaches practical, evidence-based tools to calm your nervous system, rebuild trust in your body, and take back control so you can live life on your own terms. He is the author of Diabetes Sucks and You Can Handle It.
