About the Book

Discover how stress, cortisol, and blood sugar may keep your body stuck in survival mode. A compassionate 42-day plan to support energy, calm cravings, rebuild body trust, and create lasting change.

Book Synopsis

You're eating better. You're trying to lose weight. You're doing everything you've been told to do.

So why are you still exhausted, stressed, craving food, and struggling with stubborn weight?

The answer may not be a lack of willpower.

You may be caught in the Cortisol Trap.

For people living with Type 2 diabetes, chronic stress can affect far more than mood. Cortisol, blood sugar fluctuations, poor sleep, emotional eating, inflammation, and nervous system overload can create a frustrating cycle that leaves the body feeling stuck in survival mode.

In The Cortisol Trap: Why Diabetics Struggle With Weight, Stress & Exhaustion, Dr. Constance Santego explores why your body may be holding on instead of letting go-and how to begin working with your body instead of constantly fighting against it.

Inside, you'll discover how stress may influence blood sugar, cravings, belly fat, energy, sleep, and emotional eating, along with practical ways to support your body through balanced meals, cortisol-safe movement, nervous system calming, journaling, and the signature "I Forgive... I Release... I Allow..." Healing Method.

You'll also receive a complete 42-Day Healing Plan with daily breakfasts, movement support, journal prompts, emotional guidance, and simple healing practices designed to help you create consistency without punishment or perfection.

Your body was never trying to destroy you.

It was trying to protect you the only way it knew how.

Now it's time to teach it something new.

Safety. Balance. Trust. Healing.
