Does this Sound Familiar?
Emotional exhaustion is one of the first symptoms of burnout that many professionals notice. Dentists and dental staff suffering from workplace stress may find it nearly impossible to get out of bed in the morning.
YOU'RE BURNED OUT
- Drained feelings persist from morning to night.
- There is a feeling of being overwhelmed by even the smallest requests.
- Normal self-care routines have faded.
- You’re frequently irritable- and not just at work.
- You have become complacent in your current position.
- You feel undervalued.
- Motivation has declined.
YOU'RE STUCK
- Feeling uncertain in your current role raises questions about where your skills can transfer.
- A sense of entrapment with no clear exit.
- There's a conflict between the career you built and personal happiness.
- You lack belief and self-confidence.
- Despite working with consultants and undergoing multiple training courses, life remains unchanged.
- Longing for retirement becomes a recurring thought.
- You find yourself procrastinating and have become complacent.
YOU WANT MORE
- You have the nudge in your belly telling you “I have to do something different” yet do not know where to start.
- Comparison with others on social media sparks a desire for a different life.
- You daydream about doing any other job.
- Your current role differs from your career goals.
- There is a desire for more fulfillment in both personal and professional life.
- Aspiration for recognition and career advancement intensifies.
- You’re restless, irritable, and discontent.
You're not alone! Burnout is a major issue across all fields of medicine, particularly in dentistry. Some studies suggest that clinicians can face dental career burnout rates greater than 50%!
TESTIMONIALS
"WOW just WOW. I can't say how thankful enough I am for Heather and what she has done for me. I will admit I was very skeptical but I was willing to try anything at the point I was at in my life. I suffer from anxiety and depression and had done years of on and off therapy/meds and it was only just a band aid for the deeper problems that I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW I HAD! By working with heather and uncovering my limiting beliefs and getting to the core of the problem has changed my life so much for the better! I stopped taking my meds, just like that, I was able to do things again that my anxiety kept me from doing. My family and relationships immediately improved; my work improved. I even received a promotion in a position I never thought I was capable of by eliminating my limiting beliefs! All I can say is I'm so grateful for Heather and I wish I had found her 15 years ago. Thank you, Heather, from the bottom of my heart!."

"I met with Heather for a breakout session after feeling stuck in life. Completely defeated and lost. Professionally and personally. I arrived and noticed immediately the soft, serene music playing (chosen specifically for me), and the scent of a soothing blend of essential oils. Heather made me a delicious coffee and we chatted for a bit. The ambience alone calmed me and I felt very comfortable. We used the beginning of the day to go over past, present and future plans, goals, barricades and blocking traumas.
Heather then walked me through my breakout session. It was mind opening, encouraging and healing. We discussed the same plans and goals after the session and surprisingly I found some of my answers had changed. Somehow, things became more clear. For the first time in a long time, I felt like I had direction again. My expectations had changed. Of others and myself. I felt better than I had in years. A year later, I still carry with me the principals of the session we discussed that day. I check in with Heather when little reminders are needed and she is always happy to assist. Forever grateful for the session and the time I spent with Heather. Highly recommend a session to anyone looking to improve their life in any way."

"After working 20 years in the corporate world, I was burnt to a crisp and desperate for a change. I wasn’t living in alignment with my values, or my passion and it was taking a serious toll on my body and mind. I had a big picture idea of what I wanted to do but no idea about how to go about creating it. Extremely overwhelmed and in a constant state of paralysis by analysis, I knew I needed help. I was seriously my biggest enemy and standing in my own way. Working with Heather has been the game changer I needed! She’s helped me get very clear about my goals and provided a concrete and realistic approach to create my path forward. We have identified and removed so many limiting beliefs and blocks that I feel unstoppable with achieving anything I set my mind to. She has taught me so many phenomenal and life changing techniques that I guarantee I will continue to use moving forward to consistently elevate my life. Her genuine and direct approach is exactly what I needed. There’s something to be said about working with someone who is genuinely rooting for you yet lovingly and accurately calls you out on areas you may be sabotaging yourself AND provides tools to eliminate those negative tendencies and replace them with positive and inspiring actions. I’ve connected with an inner confidence that I didn’t know was possible and I have Heather to thank for this new superpower!"

"My Breakthrough session with Heather will forever provide a pivotal anchor in my life's journey as the point at which I was given the skills to take back my life. Coming from a place of moderate skepticism, I did not expect to leave decades of trauma and heartbreak so easily within the confines of an afternoon. Heather was mindful, kind, and continuously asked my permission during our session:allowing me to gauge and accept what I could manage in an honest and introspective way."

Now, I feel more in control, re-energized in my practice, and equipped with tools to sustain my career long-term. Thank you for bringing back the joy in my practice and daily life”.

About me
Welcome, I'm Heather-
With over two decades of experience in the dental field, I've held various roles, evolving from a dental assistant to a seasoned professional with a passion for transforming lives. My story isn't one of seamless success but rather a testament to resilience, self-discovery, and the power of personal transformation. My career began as a dental assistant, yet an early fainting episode during my first extraction led to a temporary setback. I spent some time observing this newly found role and became a sterilization tech before reclaiming my seat chairside.
Driven by a desire to deepen my impact on patient care, I enrolled in school to become a hygienist despite being a single mother to three boys. As class president and a top graduate, I earned my RDH letters, marking the start of another decade of growth in both corporate and private practice offices. After years of practicing and achieving the career I had always dreamt of, a sense of emptiness and burnout crept in. The grind took its toll, and I found myself questioning the path I had pursued and longed for. It was at this crossroads that I discovered a new career direction – a breakthrough moment that led me out of the operatory and into dental pharmaceutical sales and account management.
During this part of my career, I discovered and worked with my first coach to elevate myself to the top of my sales profession. This was also when I discovered Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) techniques and Mental and Emotional Release (MER®) and obtained master certifications that propelled me to professional success and provided tools to overcome self-doubt and limiting beliefs. Multiple President Club awards and a #1 national ranking validated the transformative power of these tools and techniques.
Inspired by my coaching journey and professional growth, I transitioned into a leadership role in corporate dentistry. While working alongside clinicians in both private practice and corporate settings, I witnessed a common and concerning issue – burnout, a struggle I was all too familiar with. Armed with the tools and techniques to facilitate change, I realized my calling was to help others sidestep burnout or recover from its depths. Today, I work with clients nationwide – from healthcare and dental professionals to senior executives. My mission is to guide individuals toward restoring motivation, uncovering core values, setting and achieving goals, and freeing themselves from the negativity that hinders growth. Together, we navigate the path not just to survive but to thrive, both at work and in life. If you're ready to transform your professional and personal journey, I'm here to help you chart a course toward fulfillment and success.
What is NLP?
Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) is the study of excellent communication both with yourself and with others and is often described as a user manual for your conscious and unconscious mind.
