Hi, I’m Tiff
Ex-dentist. ADHD disruptor. Story-driven strategist.
I spent 15 years building a career that looked perfect on paper—but nearly broke me in the process. Dentistry taught me how to perform under pressure, but recovery taught me how to live. Now, I help other high-achieving professionals do the same: tell the truth, let go of perfection, and rebuild a life (and brand) that actually feels good to live inside.

ABOUT ME
REINVENTION COACH FOR BURNED OUT DENTISTS
I partner with bold humans at turning points—blending truth, creativity, and strategy to build what’s next.

I’m not your typical coach, and definitely not your typical dentist.
I built the kind of career people envied—until it burned me to the ground. ADHD, addiction, divorce, perfectionism… I lost everything I thought made me successful. And weirdly, that’s what set me free.
Now I work with dentists and healthcare pros who are hanging on by a thread but too scared to say it out loud.
You don’t need another pep talk. You need someone who gets it—who’s been in the bathroom crying between patients, who knows what it’s like to hit rock bottom with a license on the line and a smile on your face.
I blend storytelling, nervous system truth-telling, and gut-check strategy to help you figure out what’s next—whether that’s staying, quitting, or burning the whole damn thing down and starting fresh.
You’re not broken. You’re just done pretending. Let’s start there.


"Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. If you love what you are doing, you will be successful."
