Reclaim Your Life
A 4-month 1:1 coaching program for women in medicine ready to break free from burnout and overwhelm to reclaim their lives.
You’ve Achieved So Much — But At What Cost?
On paper, you’ve done it all. The diplomas. The titles. The family. The accolades.
But beneath the accomplishments, you feel… empty. Exhausted. Like no matter how much you do, it’s never enough.
You wake up before your alarm, already anxious, your mind spinning with charts, emails, and conversations you’d rather avoid. You push through your day without breaks, skipping meals and restrooms. At home, you’re there in body but not in spirit — your mind drifts back to work, even at the dinner table.
Sleep suffers. Health declines. Your relationships feel strained. And despite giving everything, you wonder:
“Is this really it? To stay in medicine, do I have to accept this is the way it is?”
I know it isn’t easy to believe, but it doesn’t have to be this way.
It's possible to...✨ Wake up rested and calm, even on busy clinic days.
✨ Greet your family with warmth and presence.
✨ Lead at work with confidence, clarity, and compassion — without the exhaustion of burnout.
✨ Meet challenges without spiraling into self-doubt.
✨ Leave work at work, with energy left to enjoy your life.
✨ Say no without guilt, asking for support without shame.
✨ Live aligned with your values, vision, and authentic self.
…and you don’t have to wait until you’re unable to function to start.
Healing from burnout doesn’t have to wait for systemic change.
In medical culture, where exhaustion, cynicism, and “never enough” are normalized, it’s all too easy for burnout to hide.
Naming this reality is the first step — because once you can see it clearly, you can choose a different response.
And that shift begins with radical responsibility: not blaming yourself, but reclaiming the power to respond differently, so you can thrive even in a system that may not change overnight.
It took time (and coaching to unlearn deeply rooted patterns), but I did it – and you can too.
After years in academic medicine, climbing the ranks to Professor and departmental Vice Chair, I said yes to all of these. I lived in a state of hustle and grind, not realizing how my perfectionism and need for external validation were preventing me from achieving real success. It wasn’t until years of feeling this way that I’d had enough.
Through my journey, I’ve realized I didn’t have to do it that way any longer; that I could choose my path and do things differently.
I could choose to honor my nervous system and the rhythms of life; I could choose to listen to my emotions and hear the guidance that they were there to give me; I could make decisions from my own internal compass and knowing; I could have compassion for myself and take off the protective armor.
And I want this for you. It’s time and more than possible.

“Before working with Christine, I often felt anxious about speaking my needs and carried a heavy weight when relationships shifted or ended. I spent too much energy trying to make everyone else happy, leaving myself depleted. During our time together, Christine gave me the tools and space to reframe my thinking, focus on what I can control, and practice healthier ways of responding to challenges. As a result of working with Christine, I feel more confident, more at peace, and better able to release situations and relationships that no longer serve me. I've learned how to stand in my own truth without fear. If I hadn't worked with Christine, I would still be caught in the exhausting loop of people-pleasing and self-doubt. Instead, I now feel free to move forward with clarity and confidence.
Christine's Reclaim Your Life program is not just about coaching--it's about transformation. She creates a safe, compassionate space to process hard things, while also challenging you to grow. Her guidance is practical, but her presence is also deeply supportive. Working with Christine has been one of the most freeing and empowering investments I've ever made in myself, for which reason, I have decided to continue the program and continue working with her. “

How it Works:
Your journey is guided through my signature RECLAIM framework, designed to move you from survival mode to soul-aligned living.

While each session will be tailored to what you bring that day, I’ll partner with you to create your specific goals for our 4 months together to ensure we are focused on your top priorities.

1 x 90-minute intake session to review your career, life path, and set program goals.
9 x 60-minute 1:1 coaching sessions tailored to your real-time challenges and goals.
Ongoing support via email and Voxer between sessions (responses within 24 hours).
Resource library of educational videos with tools and practices for burnout recovery.
Investment
$3000
(or 3 monthly payments of $1100)
Because the cost of staying stuck — emotionally, physically, relationally — is already too high.
You are worth this. And the version of you waiting on the other side? She’s worth it, too.
By the end of 4 months, you will go from:
Only feeling valuable when you’re productive, to feeling that your worth is inherent and doesn’t require performance.
Believing that if you don’t do it all, you’re failing, to being able to delegate and trust others without guilt.
Letting your emotions get in the way or constantly pushing them aside, to using emotions as data that helps keep me aligned with my true self.
Needing to be in control to feel safe, knowing that you are safe when you’re connected to my values—not control.
Not prioritizing yourself, to honoring your needs, and knowing that when you do so, you serve more powerfully.
WHO IS THIS FOR:
Women in medicine experiencing burnout or overwhelm and ready to stop running on empty.
Women who want to thrive at work and at home, without sacrificing themselves.
Women who are open to trying new approaches that might initially feel awkward or vulnerable.
Women who are willing to invest in themselves to finally make lasting change.
I’ve walked this path myself — from caring physician, mentor, clinical investigator, and leader in academic medicine to a woman who nearly lost herself to burnout. I know the culture of medicine, the unspoken rules, and the pressures to over-function, be perfect, and disconnect from our emotions.
Through my own journey, I’ve learned how to step off autopilot, release perfectionism, and lead from clarity, compassion, and courage. Now, I help other women in medicine do the same.

FAQs
Why coaching?Information is easy to access, but transformation is harder. Coaching creates transformation by using perspective-shifting questions to uncover and remove the beliefs that keep you stuck. Change feels uncomfortable because our brains are wired to prefer the familiar—even when it’s harmful. Real change means questioning the thoughts you’ve assumed are true, and that’s nearly impossible to do alone.
Additionally, coaching has been shown to reduce burnout in medicine at relatively small doses, just a few coaching sessions. This program is more intensive than the studied programs in order to ensure more substantial and lasting benefits.
How do I know if I’m experiencing burnout?Burnout exists on a spectrum, and it looks different for everyone. You can take a quiz [link] to check your level of burnout. But if you’re asking the question, chances are you’ve experienced it to some degree. Burnout can ebb and flow, but if ignored, it deepens over time. The tools and coaching in this program help you reclaim energy and alignment, no matter where you are on that spectrum.
Can I benefit from Reclaim Your Life even if I am not burned out? The RECLAIM framework can support growth and transformation for women, both in and out of burnout. If not in burnout, the program can help women live and work with greater ease, finding more alignment and confidence.
What if I don’t have time?Transformation does take time, but it can give you time back. In my own life, I used to work over 60 hours a week, never fully disconnecting on weekends or even during vacations. Once I addressed my own patterns of overfunctioning, people-pleasing, and perfectionism, I reduced my hours to about 45 per week—without changing the scope of my work.
TESTIMONIALS
"Before working with Christine, I doubted myself and lacked confidence. I felt overwhelmed by all of my responsibilities.
During our time together, Christine helped me become compassionate toward myself and stop creating false narratives that drove my anxiety. My attitude towards difficult situations has changed. I now realize I will always be faced with challenges, but how I approach them makes the difference.
I now start my day more intentionally about how to proceed- I can control the narrative of a challenge or choose how I will react or not. This is empowering. If I feel anxious, I stop and slow down, and am compassionate and intentional about what I need at the moment. This all makes it easier to be and work. I'm less overwhelmed by life.
If I hadn’t worked with Christine, I would still be doing what everyone else wanted, not addressing my own needs, staying in a panic anxiety state, not listening to my own inner voice, and not trusting my wisdom because I compared it to someone else’s situation.
I want people to know that the program is the best investment you will make for yourself and those around you. I learned tactics that I use personally and in my career. I wish I had discovered this type of coaching earlier.”

“Christine has provided a safe, understanding virtual space for coaching. She has amazing skills to flow from informal conversation, to different supportive strategies for body, mind and intuition connection, and then return me to the simple action that I was dancing around. I appreciate Christine’s commitment, generosity, and courage to step into her calling. Thank you for your expertise and kindness.”
Leanne G.
“In a short time, Christine helped me focus on a few key issues that were influencing my happiness at both work and home. She helped me realize that I have control over my own energy and how I react to other people. Since she's a doctor mom herself, I felt like she got it!"
