Dear Friend and Colleague,

I’ve been thinking about you a lot lately. I know how hard you’re working, juggling clinical duties, research projects, teaching responsibilities, and everything else life throws your way. I see you putting in the hours, pushing through the overwhelm, and doing your best to carve out a meaningful career in academic medicine.

But let me ask you—how often do you feel like you’re thriving, not just surviving?

I know what it’s like to feel stuck, confused about the next steps, or unsure if you’re making the right moves to build the career you dream of. I’ve been there. And I’ve worked with so many others who’ve been there too—brilliant, capable physicians who just needed the right tools and guidance to unlock their full potential.

That’s why I created the Academic Physician Career Kickstarter Course, a program designed to help early-career academic physicians like you gain clarity, build confidence, and accelerate your path to the career (and life) you truly deserve.

Let me tell you what this program can do for you.

Through personalized coaching and actionable strategies, you’ll:

• Identify your unique strengths and align them with a clear career path.
• Learn how to build a national reputation and position yourself for promotions.
• Overcome imposter syndrome and step confidently as you create your research and promotion plans.
• Finally achieve balance between your academic aspirations, clinical work, and personal well-being.

Here’s the truth: you don’t have to figure this out on your own.

Take Dr. RP, for example. When she came to me, she had so many aspirations but the path to get there was not entirely clear. Through our work together, she gained the clarity and confidence to step up her clinical leadership,  earn the trust of her team, get on the program routinely at national meetings, and give multiple grand rounds around the country — all while feeling more empowered than ever before.

Or Dr. JD, who noted, after just a few sessions, the she had achieved significant clarity on how she viewed her own value, both from a clinical standpoint and in terms of her nonclinical skills such as leadership and research. This has been crucial in reshaping how she views herself professionally. 

Coaching isn’t just for those who are struggling. It’s for anyone who wants to level up.

You don’t have to settle for “good enough” or wait for someone to hand you opportunities. Coaching gives you the tools to take control of your career, communicate your value, and make intentional moves that bring you closer to your goals.

But more than that, this program is about you. It’s tailored to your needs, your challenges, and your aspirations. Together, we’ll create a plan that feels authentic and achievable for you—because you deserve to thrive, not just get by.

Don’t let fear or hesitation hold you back.

I know what you might be thinking. “Is this really worth it?” “Will I have the time?” “Can I afford this investment in myself?”

Let me assure you—it is worth it. Every single person I’ve worked with has walked away feeling more confident, focused, and capable of achieving their dreams. And you can too.

So here’s my heartfelt request: Don’t let another year go by feeling stuck or uncertain. Take this step for yourself, your career, and your happiness.

You’ve got so much potential—I can’t wait to help you unlock it.

With gratitude and belief in you,
