HOLISTIC WELLBEING COACHING

For Doctors in Transition

You’ve built a life around taking care of others… Now it’s time to take care of yourself.

LEARN MORE

You're a dedicated physician.

You've spent years—maybe decades—giving everything to your patients and your work. It’s given your life a deep sense of purpose, but you’re burnt out, exhausted, and wondering who you are beyond the white coat.

You might be wondering…

  • Is this what the rest of my life looks like?

  • What happens when I’m just me, not “Doctor So-and-So”?

  • How do I make room for rest, joy, or even just a proper night’s sleep?

Whether you're in the thick of burnout, approaching retirement, or simply waking up to the truth that something needs to change—you're in the right place.

Hi, I’m Virginia.

I’m a holistic wellbeing coach and retired palliative care physician. I help doctors reconnect with themselves—especially in the messy middle of burnout, life transitions, or big questions about what’s next. Whether you’re navigating too much on too little sleep, or starting to wonder what life outside medicine could look like, I offer grounded support to help you find clarity, breathing room, and a path forward.

BEYOND THE WHITE COAT

I coach doctors who are:

 Burned out and overextended

Seeing patients by day, charting at night, holding everything together at home, and slowly unraveling inside.

A stick person sitting on a rock looking sad and dejected.

 Longing for a fuller life

One where work, family, and personal well-being can coexist... or at least take turns.

A stick person with a thought bubble with a question mark inside.

On the brink of transition

Stepping away from full-time practice, shifting roles, or preparing for retirement with no clear sense of what’s next.

What Do We Do Together?

We clarify what matters and reimagine what’s possible.

This is about creating space to ask:
What you really want (and need)

Through coaching, we explore:

  • What actually matters to you—your values, your strengths, and your vision of a more sustainable, fulfilling life.

  • What kind of care you need—and how to give it to yourself, even in small ways.

  • What’s next—whether that’s redefining your relationship with work, building a second act, or rediscovering joy in the everyday.

THE PATH AHEAD

We can take one of three paths…

A small stream covered in mossy rocks.

Burned Out and Ready for Change

You’re exhausted, your inbox is endless, and you’re working nights and weekends just to keep up.
You’ve got nothing left—and you're finally ready to try something different.

In the Midst of Overwhelm

You’re a parent trying to do everything—running the household and working too many hours. Or maybe injury or illness have forced you to take stock. Medicine is important to you, but there are other things that are important too.

Preparing for Retirement (Or Already There)

You’ve spent decades serving others. Now you’re wondering: What does life look like beyond medicine?
What gives me meaning? What brings me joy?
