You’ve spent years and hundreds of thousands of dollars training as a doctor. You care for your kids, your patients, and maybe aging parents too.
No matter how hard you work, you feel stuck.
So you push the pain down.
Does this sound like you?
What I Do as a Burnout and Purpose Coach
I am your thinking partner to help you navigate to your purpose filled life. Right now, your life feels safe. It's what you know, it's what you do. But doing the same thing will get you the same result. It's why you feel stuck. Do you want 20, 30, 40 more years of that life?
Or will you muster the courage to step into your big dreams?
I help mother-doctors/professionals work through the mindset and habits that will move them beyond emotional and physical exhaustion and prolonged stress. I help you gain clarify on your core values. I support you as you start to rebuild your ideal life. You will start to build that life and see lasting results through the tough work of translating important goals into smaller tasks and powerful habits. I truly believe in the power of habits. Think of habits as the "muscles and joints" that will get you to your goal.
Most of us know what we SHOULD do--but only a few of us actually do the tough work needed to change our life's trajectory.
That's where I come in.
It took me ten years to help myself get unstuck. I know what works and what doesn't. With me at your side, you will see fast changes. Best of all, you will learn how to help yourself.
Why Work With Me?
As a practising emergency physician and a mother of two young children, I know how it feels to be burnt out and overwhelmed. For most of my medical career, I struggled with control, criticism, anger, and envy. When I became a mother, I felt invisible.
With curiosity and a sense of adventure, I found my place of belonging in medicine. I'm still a doctor. I'm also a storyteller, a coach, a teacher and a thriving mother. It feels great to find this crossroads space of joy where I get to define my own vision of success.
I want that for you too.
I want to help you rise.
Where Do I Start?
The key is to just start! There are lots of great tips, tools, and books that can help. I’ve included some of my favourite RESOURCES here that will help you reflect.
These are books that have changed me, podcasts that I loved, and articles that moved me. I've even created an e-book if you're just getting started and want to work on keystone habits!
But if you’re really stuck, really in pain, I invite you to book a life changing conversation with me. Because the person I want to work with is at a crossroads in their life.
ARE YOU READY?
If you are ready to make the bold choice toward personal growth, let’s meet.
If we choose to work together, expect to be challenged. I have special training in shame and vulnerability. Medicine is not always kind. Yes, we will go there.
I will ask you uncomfortable questions. You will need to be courageous and meet yourself there.
But you will emerge whole.
Trust me. Allow the tears to flow.
Get curious.
You’ve given so much to your patients and families. It's your turn now.
Signature Coaching Package Choice I
"How to Win First as a Mother-Doctor"
Most mother-doctors/professionals try to balance too many roles and feel pulled in multiple directions. This can lead to feelings of overwhelm, anger, mental exhaustion, and a loss of joy in her work and family life.
Perfectionism, an over-reliance on external validation, and a lack of boundaries are common challenges.
If this sounds like you, I've got the solution: YOU HAVE TO LEARN HOW TO WIN FIRST.
When you win first, everyone around you wins.
I struggled with the same superhero aspirations to have it all. Now I help women show up for themselves, meet their own needs, then use that energy to help others rise. I promise you that when you invest in yourself and do this work, you will transform.
