Leadership & Stress Management Coach for women dentists

Can we take a moment to honor all you’ve accomplished- in your career, for your patients, and for your family. 

Now it’s time to create a life that nourishes YOU. Not just a career that feeds your bank account. Not just a title that looks good on paper. But a way of being that fuels your soul. A rediscovery of what matters to YOU.

Happy leaders, happy lives

Real Results

If success is costing you your joy, health, or peace...

it’s not success. It’s sacrifice.

In my first 2 decades as an orthodontist, I checked all the boxes. A busy practice and growing team. Spouse and kids. Smile ready for every patient.

But while I was taking care of everyone else’s needs, I was neglecting my own. What looked like “success” to the outside world felt like shackles to me. I had lost my passion and excitement for life and kept telling myself “I’ll be happy when….”

The realization that I was literally wishing my life away sparked my journey to learn what they never taught us in dental school:

Success and leadership is not about choosing between our work and ourselves. It’s about choosing a version success that honors BOTH.

To achieve our big goals,

We high-achieving women dentists must first love ourselves.

You don’t have to burn it all down to build something better.

Instead of doing more, I invite you to do different
 
If you’ve been looking at the pieces of your life asking ‘Is this just how it is?’—this space is for you.

Therapy is a beautiful, valuable tool. However, unlike coaching, therapy focuses on understanding past events to make sense of our current reality. 

Coaching focuses on where and who you are right now to help you move forward to where you want to be. 

With coaching, we get to settle back into the driver’s seat of our lives.
