Hi! I'm Hope

The Basics

I’m Hope, mom to two teens who keep me on my toes and wife to my college boyfriend, Chase.  I love to travel (the more remote and less touristy, the better!), create healthy meals from whatever ingredients I have on hand, write, and take classes in random subjects!

Let's Get Real

Even though my life looked perfect from the outside, I felt restless and discontent.  I kept wondering why I wasn't happy.  Why did I feel so stressed out even though I had exactly what I thought I wanted?

Get to Work!

My journey to discovering my calling began with chronic migraines and career burnout.  This led to my years of seeking.  I went on silent retreats, earned my 200-hour yoga teacher certification, wrote until my fingers were sore, and read/listened to over 500 self-help books.  Even though I had no idea I'd one day become a life coach, I felt compelled to share all the self-help information I was consuming.  My best friends encouraged me to start a podcast, and even though I was scared to death, I took a big breath and did it!  

Cast Away Comfort

God kept nudging me and eventually gave me a big ol’ shove to sign up for an extensive life coaching course by my favorite author and Oprah’s life coach, Martha Beck, which was so life-changing that I took a leap of faith!  I cut way back on my day job and started a coaching business helping other clinicians get unstuck and find joy and purpose!

I had no idea all the writing and podcasting were paving the way to write a book, but that's what happened.  

 

My life’s mission is to help healthcare professionals like you heal from burnout.  I'll show you how burnout can be a wake-up call to do things differently and rewrite your next chapter using tools to access your own inner wisdom.  

Are you ready to get unstuck?

Do you sense you're not where you're supposed to be or doing what you're meant to do?  Does figuring it out feel impossible?  That's where I come in!  I'll walk you through my CPR framework and teach you tools designed to get you back to a place of alignment and joy! 

Curious?  A Little More About Hope:

Yogi

I went to my first yoga class when my second baby was a newborn.  As I lay on the mat, I thought I'd died and gone to heaven.  My body, my time, my thoughts, were all mine for one precious hour. 

Podcaster, Writer, Speaker

Working in medicine activates my left brain, but when I want to activate the right side, I utilize creative outlets like writing. I hole up in my closet office (no air conditioning or heat!) and let my imagination run wild.  This is where I give myself permission to dream and scheme.

Mom

Ollie and Eli are my amazing mini humans.  Even though they bicker nonstop and have food aggression, they make life fun and crazy.

Wife

My husband is a tree-hugging forester.  He dreams of having a vermiculture operation at our house one day, but alas, I'm deathly afraid of earthworms.
