Bobbi Moriel, life coach, California
"I completed a total of five sessions of life coaching with Dawn. Initially, I was quite sceptical as I was afraid I would be pressured into making drastic changes in my life and career that I was not prepared for. But after the first session, I was pleasantly surprised. Dawn is an empathic listener and strategic thinker. She helped me to realize that life coaching is really just about a growth mindset with the goal of attaining greater personal and career fulfillment. She helped me shift my perspective on some of the obstacles I face and identify areas for self-improvement. As a physician mom like myself, she has a great understanding of the unique challenges that we face, especially physician burnout. I have taken what I have learned from the sessions to remind myself to practice more self-compassion on days when I am feeling overwhelmed. I would highly recommend Dawn to everyone, but especially to career moms. J.C., physician, Oakville

"Excellent facilitation, there was psychological safety. There was space for feelings and sharing of personal experiences. As a fellow emergency physician, Dr. Lim has a clear shared understanding of our work experience. There is a buy-in to the knowledge she shares, because she directly related the content to our work. The conversation flowed naturally. Dr. Lim was extremely respectful and inquisitive. I felt included in the dialogue. Overall, amazing workshop!" Huma Ali, emergency physician, Calgary AB
