About Me

Hi! I’m Michelle Chestovich, MD

I'm a mom of four and a family doc. I used to call myself the "Queen of Overwhelm," and I know what it's like to cry yourself to sleep at night thinking that you're failing at everything.

I tried all the things to feel better (I know you have too!):  more sleep, more exercise, reading all the books, and of course, two date nights a month (because that oughta fix it!).  All of these things helped . . . for awhile.

Finally, I hired a coach and began feeling less overwhelmed and more in control of my life.  I later became a certified coach to help other physician moms.

I am a fierce advocate for physician wellness because I know firsthand the consequences of untreated burnout and depression.  Unfortunately, I lost my younger sister, Dr Gretchen Butler, unexpectedly to suicide in March 2021. She was an incredible radiologist and even more than that, the most loving mom to her three young kids. Her death opened my eyes to the risks we face as women in medicine. I am committed to helping heal the healer through coaching.
