Leading From The Heart

Small Group Coaching for Women Physician Leaders

Were you taught how to lead sustainably and healthily?

Leaders in medicine are expected to manage schedules, have their teams meet metrics, and lead “by example.”

This usually means showing up as a martyr and running on empty.

Leaders are expected to fix, solve, and push through. To take responsibility for many things that are out of your control.

We are not taught how to lead calmly with intention through uncertainty and constant change. And we pass on patterns of leading and generational traumas that no longer serve.

Chief school didn’t teach me how to lead with vulnerability, creativity, humanity or love.

"Working with Jessie has been one of the best decisions I've made professionally. She is simply amazing.”

This leadership development program is different.

I do not teach “servant leadership.” I help you lead from a place of presence, purpose, and inner strength.

Leading with heart is not about being everything to everyone, ruminating, overworking, and holding it all.

It is about learning how to lead in a way that heals yourself, your teams, your patients, and the culture of medicine.

”I spoke in front of ~1800 people this past Tuesday and have gotten some amazing feedback, including the conference producer telling me I’m the most dynamic physician speaker she’s seen at this annual conference in her past 30 years.

I wanted to thank you for all your coaching over the years, which undoubtedly helped me prepare for and present myself on stage as a calm, collected, and passionate person (despite the chaos of my ADHD brain).”

We will explore the tools of Heart-Centered Leadership

Each session will blend real-time coaching, peer connection, practical leadership tools, and deep reflection.

Sessions will be grounded in mindfulness, neuroscience, and lived experience.

Discover how to move beyond outdated leadership habits, including hypervigilance, people-pleasing, and emotional suppression.

Reconnect with your nervous system and use it as your most powerful leadership tool.

Navigate conflict and change with calm, grounded presence.

Set boundaries without guilt and communicate with clarity.

Model wellness and compassion, rather than martyrdom.

These are not soft skills.

They are sustainable leadership strategies that actually work.

Even amidst the turbulence of 2025 and our broken systems of care.

SAVE YOUR SPOT

“A fantastic investment in yourself and your future!”

Why is this Leadership Program Unique?

What I teach in this program is what I’ve discovered through coaching hundreds of physician leaders and through teaching mindful leadership workshops for national organizations, such as ACOG and the American College of Cardiology.

It is leadership for 2026 and beyond.

What you will learn is rooted in neuroscience and designed to help you navigate the complexity of our current healthcare system with greater ease and confidence.

You will learn how to lead sustainably and creatively and to trust yourself and feel grounded by the radical idea that how you lead should feel good to you, too

“I can personally attest that as a Family Medicine physician and co-director of Primary Care as well as a mom of two young kids, with a commute, and a partner who also has a demanding job, I may have left a job I love if it weren’t for physician coaching and development.”

“Working with Jessie is revelatory, providing practical tools that help us manage the daily demands of our profession more effectively. This work serves as an antidote to our work-induced stress responses, while cultivating calm, patience, and clarity—qualities that are essential to our well-being as physicians”

“When I reached out to Jessie, I thought I was getting an executive medical coach. I got so much more.”

“The very best thing I have gifted myself since becoming a physician. Hands down.”

“Coaching was life-changing! Jessie is so supportive and a wealth of knowledge and experience! “

You no longer have to lead alone

Or on empty.

Whether you’re navigating staffing, patient care, a difficult colleague or charge nurse, or leadership politics,

This group offers a better way forward.

      You can feel strong and soft at the same time. You can be strategic and still lead with love.

   You can stop doing it all and focus on what matters.

“Jessie helped me understand my professional goals and how they align with, rather than compete with, my personal goals. She listened to my particular concerns and helped me outline an achievable work plan.“ - Stanford Physician leader
