Hey there, I'm Chelsea.
I’m a former OBGYN turned medical career coach and digital nomad. I help healthcare professionals, just like you, change into financially stable careers they actually ENJOY. If you are thinking about leaving the medical field, but are feeling so lost and confused as to HOW to do this, I gotchu.
As a medical career coach, I will walk you through the process of changing careers with ease. Together we will find something that really fulfills you so you don’t feel like you are wasting your time on this earth.
I believe there is a way for you to serve the world that doesn’t leave you feeling so drained and depleted. I’m obsessed with helping people leverage their strengths to make a meaningful impact on the world.
Hang around with me long enough and you will see that ANYTHING is possible for you 🙂

I help burnt out health care professionals change into financially stable careers that they actually ENJOY.
For most of my 20’s I got sucked into the lie of how my life SHOULD look. I achieved all the things I was supposed to achieve to be happy and successful: the medical degree, the top residency program, the “dream career” as a doctor. On the outside I had “made it”. Yet I still felt profoundly empty.
I constantly felt drained and exhausted.
Like I was being dragged along on this conveyor belt through a life I didn’t mean to choose.
I was going through the majority of my waking hours on autopilot begrudgingly performing tasks and doing work that didn’t truly align with me or my values.
Plus I had NO TIME for myself outside of work. No time to pursue the hobbies I enjoyed like hiking, traveling, photography, reading, and spending time with family and friends.
Something inside of me kept asking “is this it?” “is this all I’ve ever wanted to do?”. I kept feeling this pull towards something MORE. And finally, during my second year of OBGYN residency, I started to listen. I began to tune into my intuition and pay attention to the clues all around me. The clues that were pointing me in the direction of my purpose.
I walked away from my career in medicine. Sold all of my belongings and now I travel the world as a medical career coach and digital nomad. My life now is bigger and more expansive than I’ve ever imagined. I spend more time in nature and less time cooped up in an office, school or hospital. I am free to work from a coffee shop or even the beach if it’s nice outside. I can go to a yoga class or a long walk in the middle of day if I so choose. I am following my heart more than my head. And most importantly, I am living each day in alignment with my purpose and doing work that actually inspires me.
I believe that each of us is called to share our unique gifts and talents with the world. My mission is to help you unlock your full potential and follow your own path to success so you can live a more inspired, meaningful life.
