2. Problem and Sub-Problems H0: Diabetes life coaching given to individuals with Type 2 Diabetes has no effect on glycemic control, diabetes strengthening and self-management.

H1: Diabetes life coaching given to individuals with Type 2 Diabetes has an effect on glycemic control, strengthening diabetes and self-management.

3. Aims and Expected Benefits of the Research This study was planned as a control group intervention study to determine the effect of diabetes coaching on glycemic control, diabetes strengthening and self-management in individuals with Type 2 Diabetes.

Expected benefits:

* Developing decision-making and problem-solving skills of individuals with diabetes,
* Promoting diabetes coaching in the nursing profession and increasing its visibility and spreading diabetes coaching.

Detailed description: Research Method In the study, data will be collected by means of the data collection form, the diabetes strengthening scale, the diabetes self-management scale in people with type 2 diabetes, and based on the researcher's experiences and literature.

1. Data collection form: It will be created by the researcher based on the literature. (such as age, gender, how many years have had diabetes).
2. Diabetes strengthening scale: It has 3 sub-dimensions: management of psychosocial aspects in diabetes, level of dissatisfaction and readiness for change, setting and achieving diabetes goals.
