Are you burnt out, exhausted, and emotionally spent? Do you feel there are not enough hours in the day to accomplish what you need to do?

A Champion for Obliterating Burnout in Healthcare & HR | Transformational Keynote & TEDx Speaker | Author | Certified PQ Coach | Mental Fitness * Wellness Coach Has self-care become a luxury? Do you reach for food as a source of comfort, only to find that it's ultimately making you feel worse? Are you sick and tired of being sick and tired? Is your health suffering? This was me, after 26 years in the corporate retail industry. I reached my heaviest weight and was completely miserable. I desperately needed a change. I took a leap of faith, quit the corporate world, and started a career in the direct selling industry. I spent an amazing 16 years serving my clients, and developed a love for coaching and mentoring others. During this time, I began my health and wellness journey with one of largest global wellness companies, losing 65 pounds in 2011. Upon reaching my goal, I decided to become a service provider, and have spent the last 10 years as a Wellness Coach, helping thousands of members achieve their health and wellness objectives. In 2020, the direct selling company I was employed with, closed its doors. I took this as an opportunity to take my wellness journey to a new level. In May of 2020, I launched my Success Coaching practice, to help individuals who were struggling with unhealthy behavior due to the pandemic. My practice has grown to helping business executives take charge of their lives, by releasing limiting beliefs that drive unhealthy behavior, and resetting their mindset and actions so they can live their happiest, healthiest, and most successful life. My clients have struggled with the following:
* Weight gain
* Poor health
* Job burnout
* Limiting beliefs that lead to lack of confidence and self-worth
* Inability to achieve work, life, balance
* Inability to achieve personal and professional goals
* Relationship challenges

Client success stories include:
* Significant reduction in stress and anxiety by creating a balanced life
* Weight loss
* Improved health
* Development of sustainable healthy habits (mind and body)
* Development of a solid Vision for goal achievement
* Building strong confidence
* Positive mindset shift
* Improved relationships
* Business success

Burnout in healthcare is more than a clinical issue.

It impacts HR leaders, executives, and entire organizational cultures.

👉 Staffing shortages.
👉 Rising costs.
👉 Regulatory changes.
👉 Leadership transitions without support.
👉 Values misalignment.

Over time, chronic stress impacts judgment, drains energy, and fuels disengagement — for leaders and teams.

Burnout is a byproduct of chronic stress.

The first step is identifying the source.
The second is strengthening our mental fitness.

When we recognize unhelpful thoughts and have the ability to shift to a positive mindset — we lead with clarity, calm, and confidence.

Challenges do not disappear overnight.
But how we respond to them can change immediately.

And when leaders shift, cultures shift.

If you’re ready to move from burnout to sustainable leadership, schedule a Discovery Call:

Your best life — and your best leadership — is waiting.

02/12/2026

Valentine’s Day is this Saturday. ❤️

For many, it will mean flowers, chocolates, dinner reservations, and time with someone they love.

For healthcare and HR leaders, it may also mean:

• Covering an unexpected shift.
• Navigating a weekend call about staffing.
• Responding to an employee crisis.
• Mentally replaying the week instead of fully disconnecting.

You spend your days caring for others. Advocating. Solving. Supporting. Carrying the emotional weight of your teams.

But here’s a leadership question as we head into Valentine’s weekend:

How are you expressing love toward yourself?

For many high-achieving leaders, self-love feels indulgent and selfish.

You’re supposed to be the strong and resilient one. The one who “knows better.”

So when something falls through…
When a metric dips…
When engagement scores drop…
When you lose patience…

You become your own worst critic.

But self-love is not narcissism.

It’s not self-absorption.

It’s self-compassion.

It’s speaking to yourself the way you speak to the exhausted nurse.

The HR director navigating layoffs.

The leader managing impossible expectations.

You would never say to them:
“You should be better than this.”

You’d say:
“This is hard. Let’s work through it together.”

Unfortunately, you deny yourself that same grace.

Here’s what I’ve seen time and again in healthcare and HR leadership:

Self-compassion reduces stress reactivity.
It improves decision-making.
It strengthens resilience.
It interrupts burnout before it spirals.

When you lead yourself with compassion:

• You communicate more calmly and clearly.
• You model sustainable performance.
• You build healthier cultures.
• You make better long-term choices.

As Valentine’s Day approaches this Saturday, consider this:

What would it look like to offer yourself the same care you so freely give others?

That’s not selfish.
That’s sustainable leadership.

02/10/2026

When we talk about chronic stress and burnout, healthcare and HR leaders often feel it first—and carry it the longest.

Not just because of the work, but because of the weight of responsibility.

In healthcare and HR, burnout is often driven by:

• Chronic staffing shortages and demanding workloads
• Rising costs and pressure to do more with less
• Constant change with little margin for recovery
• Feeling responsible for everyone else’s wellbeing, with little support for their own
• Misalignment between organizational values and daily realities

Over time, this shows up as overwhelm, decision fatigue, frustration, anxiety, and declining health—long before leaders feel “burned out.”

And for many leaders, the stress doesn’t stop when the workday ends.

• Caring for aging parents or sick loved ones
• Raising children or teenagers while working in crisis-driven roles
• Navigating strained relationships or personal health challenges
• Managing financial uncertainty or major life transitions

Regardless of where the stress originates, the outcome is the same: emotional and physical exhaustion that impacts leadership presence, communication, performance, and wellbeing.

In my best-selling book, From Burnout to Best Life: Sustainable Strategies for a Healthy Mind & Body, I share how mindset, internal “saboteurs,” and work environments shape stress—and how mental fitness creates the capacity to respond rather than react.

Burnout isn’t a personal failure. It’s a signal that something needs to change.

If you’re a healthcare or HR leader ready to reset how you lead, work, and live, I invite you to join the Burnout to Best Life: Next-Chapter Leadership Reset—a guided experience designed to help leaders rebuild clarity, resilience, and sustainable energy.

What if burnout isn’t a flaw in you… but a flaw in the system you’ve been carrying on your back?

In healthcare and HR, leaders are often the strongest, most dependable people in the organization—and the most exhausted.

You absorb the pressure of staffing shortages.
You navigate rising costs and limited resources.
You manage constant change, compliance, crises, and competing priorities.

All while trying to support everyone else.

So you push through.

You normalize overload.

You sacrifice your health, time, and balance because the role demands it.

Until it doesn’t.
Until your energy crashes.
Until your focus slips.
Until your body and mind start sending louder signals.

If you’re feeling the spiral — the overwhelm, the loss of control, the quiet exhaustion — it’s not weakness.

It’s feedback.

And it’s time for a different kind of reset.

Introducing the Burnout to Best Life: Next-Chapter Leadership Reset

Your next chapter doesn’t have to look like burnout in a different role.

02/05/2026

Healthcare & HR leaders—what happens to you under pressure?

When your inbox is exploding, staffing is short, budgets are tight, and everyone needs something right now… how does stress show up?

• Do you feel overwhelmed and mentally shut down?

• Do you get short-tempered and lose patience with your team?

• Do you go into “power-through” mode… until you crash hard later?

Different responses. Same result.

When stress isn’t managed, it doesn’t just affect performance—it spills into your health, decision-making, communication, and relationships.

Over time, chronic stress can look like:
• Frequent illness or inflammation

• Poor sleep and constant fatigue

• Brain fog, forgetfulness, and poor judgment

• Irritability that strains team and family relationships

• Weight gain, digestive issues, and headaches

• Feeling isolated, disengaged, or emotionally drained

Here’s the dangerous myth many leaders believe:

👉 “Stress is just part of leadership.”

Short-term pressure can motivate.
Chronic stress erodes your effectiveness.

If you’re noticing tension headaches, racing thoughts, indigestion, or difficulty slowing down—you’ve crossed the line.

The good news?

Stress is manageable.

Mental fitness gives you tools to quiet the constant mental noise, reset in the moment, and respond instead of react—especially in high-stakes environments like healthcare and HR.

You don’t have to sacrifice your health to be an effective leader.
I can help.

Staffing shortages. Difficult conversations. Compliance audits. Employee crises. After-hours messages that can’t wait.

Here’s the thing:

Our nervous system doesn’t know the difference between a true emergency and yet another urgent issue landing on your desk at 4:47 pm.

When stress hits, our body goes into fight-or-flight. Heart rate rises. Breathing shortens. Focus narrows. Over time, that response becomes easier to trigger—and harder to shut off.

🛑 Try this 10–15 second reset at work:

👀 See: Look at one object as if you’re seeing it for the first time. Notice color, shape, texture.

👂 Hear: Tune into the most distant sound you can detect.

🌬️ Breathe: Slow your breath—inhale through your nose, exhale through your mouth.

✋ Touch: Notice the texture and temperature of whatever you’re touching.

This quick pause helps calm the nervous system so you can respond—not react.

If chronic stress is affecting your clarity, communication, productivity, or wellbeing, you don’t have to keep pushing through.

💡 Burnout to Best Life: Next-Chapter Leadership Reset starts March 2

A 4-week small-group experience for leaders navigating burnout, transition, or redefining success.

👥 Limited to 6 leaders

If you’re ready for a reset that sticks, let’s connect.

02/01/2026

Healthcare and HR leaders—quick check-in.

When you leave work for the day, do you actually leave… or does work come with you?

• Listening to voicemails on the drive home
• Checking email while “relaxing” on the couch
• Responding to Teams, Slack, or texts during dinner
• Running back to your home office every time your computer dings

Sound familiar?

In healthcare and HR, accessibility often feels like part of the job.

Patient needs. Employee crises. Staffing issues. Compliance deadlines. Something is always urgent.

And in today’s highly accessible world, it’s harder than ever to disconnect.

IMs. Email. Texts. Teams. Slack. WhatsApp. GroupMe. The list keeps growing.

When we don’t give ourselves permission to unplug, chronic stress quietly creeps in—and over time, it can lead to:

• exhaustion and frequent illness
• anxiety or depression
• strained relationships at home and at work
• reduced focus and decision fatigue
• lower job satisfaction and productivity

Here’s the hard truth: when we’re burned out, we lose perspective on what matters most—our health, our energy, and our relationships.

If this resonates, consider this a gentle pause—not a judgment.
Ask yourself:

👉 What will life look like six months from now if nothing changes?
👉 What might I be forced to give up if my health or relationships suffer?

Being available 24/7 is often an assumed expectation—not an actual requirement.

And while some roles do involve being on call, even public service professionals have scheduled time off.

Healthy boundaries aren’t selfish.

They’re a leadership responsibility.

If you’re ready to reclaim your energy, clarity, and life outside of work, I’m here to help.

01/30/2026

You worked hard to get where you are.

The title. The salary. The security.

And yet… it’s no longer fulfilling.

Many healthcare and HR leaders I talk to feel trapped in roles that look great on paper but drain them daily. Walking away feels risky. Staying feels like quicksand.

Here’s the truth we don’t say out loud:

Your growth and fulfillment won’t magically be handed to you.

If you want something different—more meaning, better balance, work that aligns with who you are now—you have to be your own advocate.

You have to ask for support.

You have to explore options.

You have to get curious instead of staying quiet.

Waiting for the organization to notice your burnout or offer a solution rarely works. Most systems are designed to keep moving—not to pause and ask if you’re okay.

Yes, there are real constraints. Financial obligations. Family responsibilities. Golden handcuffs.

But you still control how you respond.

If you stay in victim mode, nothing changes.

If you respond with curiosity—What do I need? What’s possible? Who could help me?—new paths start to appear.

Is change uncomfortable? Absolutely.

Is staying stuck even harder? Yes.

You don’t have to quit tomorrow.

But you do owe it to yourself to stop ignoring the quiet voice that says, there’s more than this.

If you need clarity and accountability to move forward, let’s chat.

01/27/2026

Healthcare and HR leaders make thousands of decisions daily—often under pressure, with limited resources, and while supporting others who are already stretched thin.

Now add this:

Our brains process ~70,000 thoughts a day.
About 80% are negative.

That means many leaders are running meetings, managing crises, and supporting teams while an internal narrative is saying:

• I’m behind.
• I should be doing more.
• I can’t let anyone see me struggle.
• If I slow down, everything will fall apart.

Over time, these negative thoughts not only impact wellbeing—they show up in:

• Decision fatigue
• Shortened patience
• Communication breakdowns
• Difficulty setting boundaries
• Burnout (for the leader and their team)

Here’s where mental fitness comes in.

The first step in shifting mindset is briefly pausing.

Take a deep breath in through your nose, then exhale slowly through your mouth.

Repeat for a count of five.
Notice your thoughts.
Be curious, not critical.
Awareness is the goal.

Once you notice a negative thought pattern, ask:

👉 Is this actually true?

Most of the time, it isn’t.

A simple, powerful reframe is adding the word “yet.”

• I don’t have time for myself…yet.
• This team isn’t where I want it to be…yet.
• I can’t create more balance…yet.

This small shift creates space for possibility instead of pressure—and strengthens healthier neural pathways over time.

As leaders, we’re often the last to recognize how our internal stress impacts our behavior, the behavior of our team, and the culture we’re developing.

That’s why accountability and support matter.

I help healthcare and HR leaders strengthen their mental fitness, release limiting beliefs, and create sustainable work-life harmony—so they can lead with clarity, confidence, and compassion while protecting their own wellbeing.

If this resonates, let’s chat.

01/25/2026

In healthcare and HR, getting through the week can feel like a win.

Clearing the backlog.
Covering open shifts.

Making it through another round of tough conversations or compliance deadlines.

Those moments deserve to be celebrated. You’ve earned them.

But sometimes, celebration quietly turns into comfort.

Comfort sounds like:
➡️ “Let’s keep things as they are—we’re barely hanging in as it is.”
➡️ “Now is not the right time to change anything.”
➡️ “Once things calm down, then we’ll focus on growth.”

The challenge?

When celebration becomes an excuse to stay where we are, growth stalls, and burnout often follows.

Breaking the cycle doesn’t require a massive overhaul. It starts small.

Consider, what’s needed now:
👉 What’s one small step I can take today to lead more sustainably?
👉 What’s one conversation, boundary, or decision I’ve been avoiding?

Then, take that first small step.
Then, take another.
Then another.

Before you know it, you’ve built momentum and you’re not just celebrating survival…
You’re celebrating progress.

01/20/2026

Third week of January already—how is that possible?

The holiday break feels like a distant memory now.

It’s back to:

• Back-to-back meetings
• A growing inbox and compliance deadlines
• Staffing shortages and employee issues that can’t wait
• Eating lunch at your desk—if you eat at all
• Leaving work after 7pm (again)

Those 10–12 hour days have a way of sneaking back in fast.
By the time you get home, you’re exhausted.

Cooking feels impossible, so it’s takeout.

You pour a drink to “take the edge off” and crash on the couch, mindlessly watching reruns—telling yourself you’ll start being healthier next week.

Sound familiar?

You might be thinking, “I just need another vacation.”

I used to think that too.

This was my reality for years—and I’m here to tell you: this pace is not sustainable.

For me, it eventually led to full-blown burnout, serious health issues, strained relationships, and leaving a 26-year career without an exit plan—resulting in bankruptcy.

I’m here to tell you, much of it was preventable.

The warning signs were there:

• Chronic stress and anxiety
• Poor sleep and constant exhaustion
• Tension headaches that became migraines
• Digestive issues
• Depression and dissatisfaction
• Communication breakdowns at home
• Making life-altering decisions from a place of desperation

Healthcare and HR leaders are especially vulnerable because you’re always taking care of everyone else.

But here’s the truth:

Prioritizing yourself is not selfish—it’s essential.

Burnout prevention starts with protecting your:
• Time
• Energy
• Health and wellbeing

A new year is the perfect opportunity to do things differently.

Imagine looking back at the end of this year feeling healthy, fulfilled, grounded, and proud of how you showed up—for yourself and your team.

That can be your reality.

The question is:

Are you ready to do the work to make it happen?

01/17/2026

Ever notice how leadership can feel like trying to finish a puzzle where none of the pieces quite fit?

In healthcare and HR, the pressure to get everything perfect is real—staffing shortages, compliance demands, burned-out teams, and constant change.

I recently learned a lesson about perfectionism the hard way.

I spent hours stuck on a puzzle, convinced there was only one right way to finish it. I focused so much on tiny imperfections that I missed the bigger picture.

When it was finally “done,” it wasn’t flawless—but it was complete.

And that’s leadership today.

Perfection is exhausting and unsustainable.

Flexibility is what allows progress, resilience, and sanity.
Sometimes the most effective leaders stop forcing the pieces to fit—and learn to lead in the gray.

Where might good enough actually be good leadership right now?
