Expert Overview

I help introverted High Achievers overcome stress, reach bold goals, and live life on your own terms.

I help you BE the Truest & Highest Version of Yourself in your personal and professional life without compromising who you are.

I am a physician, an anesthesiologist, a mom, a spouse, an introvert.
I am a recovering perfectionistic procrastinator, self-doubter, & people-pleaser.
I am a Thriver emerged from the ashes of my own burnout, a goal-getter, and a lifter of weights & minds.

I felt stuck in the rat race of life. I always had to get to the next thing before I could arrive and allow myself to feel good about where I was.
I was in this cyclical state of dis-ease... feeling this need to fill this void that I didn't realize was there... trying to meet societal, cultural, and self-imposed expectations and pressures of being "good enough".

I would take out my frustrations on my family or myself.

When finally, I thought — enough was enough.

Sometimes we need a coach, a mentor, a guide to help us see what we don't see… to help pull us out of the same old story of our lives.

I had tried to DIY my personal development. I read the self-help books, listened to podcasts, tried meditation and yoga, studied philosophy, theology, positive psychology, and neuroscience.  But it wasn't until I personally experienced coaching that I got the guidance and traction to overcome my old thought patterns and reactive habits.

And so, It is my mission and vision to share the power of coaching to help you shed the limiting stories within you and re-write your story and create new ones beyond the same old limited soundtrack.  I want to help you uncover what is keeping you stuck… help you reveal your highest self even in the most “triggering” situations. Our brains are neuroplastic, and it is absolutely possible to become the person you want to be and create a life you love… and enjoy it!

• Maybe you're working through bettering your relationship with your spouse, your kids, or your work place.
• Maybe you're working on getting over your self-doubt or imposter syndrome.
• Maybe you're wanting to perform better in your work or business.
• Maybe you're going through some major life or career transitions.
• Maybe you’re wanting to manage your time better.
• Maybe you're wanting to get out of over-eating, over-drinking, over-working, … over-doing.
• Maybe you're wanting to feel less angry and just… feel better.

Together, we create a process to do just that.
