Hi, I’m Sharon.
Mom, Wife, Physician Executive and Certified Life Coach.
In the past 30 years as a physician and healthcare executive, I have learned about what it takes to be successful as a woman navigating a diverse career. Through coaching, I learned how to feel better and enjoy it all much more.
my journey
Early days at Georgetown University.
While I love being a doctor, I sensed early in my career that the healthcare system was flawed. So, I focused on fixing what I could, by bringing healthcare to underserved groups, improving quality & safety and leadership development.
Although I was achieving much in my career, I believed the myth that the price of success was exhaustion, overwhelm, and caring for others ahead of myself. When success came, I believed it was somehow a mistake and I would be found out for the imposter that I was. So I sought more external validation, more work, said yes to everything. Externally I looked like I had it together, inside I was a hot mess (my words) and I wasn’t sure what to do. Does this sound familiar?
Looking for solutions, I tried things that worked temporarily. Then, I hired a great coach, who helped me see the answers already within me. I changed my life confidently, with energy and passion. This experience convinced me of the power of coaching.
It was through working with a coach that I pivoted my career toward addressing the root causes of physician and healthcare worker burnout and improving well-being in healthcare. And ultimately, I became certified as a coach to help others learn what I did—coaching is a gift to yourself!
As a Career & Life Coach, I love working with women leaders to explore what really matters to them and imagine the life they want—in work and in life. I teach practical skills, to uncover their unique answers to achieve the life they want today and for all the dreams yet to come.
