Programs For Clinicians

If you work in palliative care, oncology, or if you care for seriously ill patients, you know that balancing empathy and boundaries is a challenge.

Too much empathy with mushy boundaries = burnout

But too little empathy with inflexible boundaries is not the kind of clinician you want to be.

You may find yourself bouncing between giving too much and then pulling way back to protect your own wellbeing.

None of it feels quite right.

Maybe you wonder if you're doing something wrong. There might be a voice in your head telling you that other people are handling it all better than you are. (Spoiler - they aren't).

Here's what doesn't work:

• Just powering through
• Stuffing your feelings
• Telling yourself to try harder
• Comparing yourself to other people
• Using caffeine to keep from feeling exhausted (but enjoying a yummy cup of coffee for pleasure is great!)

Here's an uncomfortable truth:

If you don't make a change now, a year (or two, or five) will pass and you'll be in exactly the same situation.

If you work in palliative, oncology, or serious illness care you know that  many people wait to create the life they want, and then get a devastating diagnosis and miss their chance.

Do not let this happen to you.

Creating a joyful, meaningful life is primarily an inside job.

You can create a life that fills you up even if your job is hard.

You can set boundaries and still be a loving person.

You can quiet the judgy voice in your head.

You can rediscover your light and your sparkle.

Life is short. Create the life you want.

I created the Healing the Heart of the Healer Program because I know that many physicians, counselors, chaplains, nurses, social workers, nurse practitioners, physician assistants/associates, home health aides, massage therapists, and many other healers are caring beautifully for others, but not extending enough of that care to themselves.

Let's change that dynamic. Let's normalize caring as intensely for your own wellbeing as you do for your patients and clients.

You don't need a program or a coach to do this, you can do it on your own. You can recommit to your own wellbeing, change your unhelpful thinking patterns, calm your stressed out nervous system, and learn to set firm boundaries. You can make decisions for your life that will make you happy, and you don't need my program or any other program to make this happen.

But will you?

Have you?

I don't want you to stay in a life that makes you feel frustrated, overwhelmed, or trapped. Life is just too short for that.

If you'd like a guide to help you create the life you want, reach out. The next cohort of Healing the Heart of the Healer will open soon and you can join the waitlist by clicking below. If you'd like 1:1 coaching, that's available too. 

We are all just "walking each other home," and I would be honored to help you on your journey.
