From the moment I started coaching with Ashley, I started feeling less overwhelmed. Before that, I felt like I was drowning in my responsibilities. The coaching sessions helped me make relevant shifts in my life and business systems. I came away from coaching sessions with a greater understanding of my current circumstances and clarity to help me take the necessary next steps.

"Your coaching and support has been transformative for me. Our conversations guide my thinking and make me not only question but also challenge myself. You help me to see myself and my challenges differently and encourage me to face issues that I was previously unwilling to see or entirely unaware of. "

– ICU Nurse, North Carolina

“Doug’s coaching helped me build confidence, improve my communication, and become more self-aware. One of the biggest takeaways from our sessions was how he helped me look at things I wouldn’t normally think about, showing me there’s often more beyond my first thoughts. That really pushed me to grow and become a better version of myself.”

– campus safety officer, New York

"I felt truly stuck between a rock and a hard place when it came to the decisions of my business and that of my community. There was no right answer, no easy solution, and I needed to make a hard decision. Working with Doug, I was able to find the hard truth of my situation and the solution that was best for me and my community. Shockingly, I quickly felt peace with my leadership decision because I knew it was the most ethical decision I could have made. I am not sure how I would have come to this conclusion without Doug’s help."

Deb Shannon

Deb’s work brings together neuroscience, resilience, and the real lives of women in medicine. With practical mental fitness tools, her OBGYNs, midwives, and physician clients rediscover trust in themselves and who they truly are. This leads to a better work/life balance.

Behind the white coat are stories the public rarely hears: the hidden strain of hyperachievement, the cost of impossibly high standards turned inward, the paradox of bringing new lives into the world while losing track of yourself. These are the experiences Deb calls to the surface, not just to name the problem, but to open the doors of possibility that create real personal change.

Her mission is to accelerate positive change one conversation at a time. Through coaching, Deb helps high-achieving women in medicine remember who they are — and rediscover that the calm and clarity they're searching for have been within them all along.

Specialties: Career & Performance and Entrepreneurial & Business Coaching 

"Before working with Deb, I thought resilience was just about powering through. Now I see that building my mental fitness daily, especially on the good days, means I'm at my best for my patients and myself. I've learned to pause rather than react in frustration, and found that one mindful moment didn't just help me, it transformed my interaction with a nervous patient. Practicing with Deb helped me realize change truly begins with me, and it ripples out to my team and patients.”    

— Nurse Midwife

"When I started working with Deb, I was ready to stop practicing clinical medicine, and specifically stop working in academic medicine.  Deb helped me organize my career goals and accomplishments so I could move forward with my next professional steps.  Deb’s thoughts and questions helped prepare me for interviews in different medical sectors.   In the end, I am thrilled to return to academic medicine, but with different insight and goals.  Working with a non-physician coach was incredibly valuable to me."
