Hey there,
I'm Coach Chels
Ex-doctor, six-figure CEO, business mentor, intuition whisperer, and digital nomad.
In 2019, I made the radical decision to step off the default path and follow my intuition onto my authentic path.
And since then, life has cracked open in the most beautiful way...
My story
It all started in 2019, when I did something a little crazy. I quit my OBGYN residency during second year, sold all my stuff and bought a one way ticket to South Korea.
I know it sounds absolutely nuts, but I was following this pull from my intuition.
This still small voice that kept telling me
"you’re meant for more”
I think if you are here reading this… you actually know exactly the voice I’m talking about (and I think you’ve experienced your own too).
Since leaving medicine in 2019, my entire life has completely transformed. I have…
-
Built a six-figure business ($380,000 in revenue in the past three years alone!) doing work I LOVE.
-
Started a podcast and interviewed my idols.
-
Lived and worked in 56 countries.
-
Wrote a book called Residency Dropout that made it to the bestsellers list on Amazon → Read it here
-
Done epic bucket list travel experiences on the reg (safaris in the Serengeti, trekking in the Himalayas, wild camping in Mongolia).
-
Created a community of 15,000 like-minded healthcare professionals.
-
Helped clients resign from their jobs, start blogs, podcasts, and launch their dream businesses.
But the real journey has been so much deeper...
Little by little, the process of building a business began revealing parts of me that were still hurting.
I started noticing the patterns I used to protect myself.
The places where I still equated self-worth with success.
The shame I felt around failure.
The “never enough” that creeped into every interaction.
And instead of ignoring the patterns, my intuition led me to teachers, practices and experiences where I could heal them.
I started practicing forgiveness, especially with myself.
I let go of the idea that I had to earn rest.
I gave myself permission to slow down.
I learned how to regulate my nervous system
I stopped living from the neck up and started coming home to my body.
I learned how to feel my feelings in the body instead of analyzing them in the mind.
And through all of this, I discovered something I didn’t know I was searching for:
A sense of worthiness that wasn’t tied to how productive I was.
A sense of wholeness that didn’t depend on external validation.
A deeper knowing that my desires are not selfish, they are guiding me towards my most aligned path.
The process of building my business brought me back to life.
So if you are craving a life that feels like YOU instead of a “perfect imitation of someone else’s”
My intention is to show you how to do meaningful work without abandoning yourself in the process.
To make an impact without giving up the magic of everyday life.
To follow your intuition and build a business that heals your heart and funds your freedom.
If this speaks to you, you are in the right place.
Let’s build something beautiful together.
