Hi!  I'm Ashley.


I am a practicing academic Pediatric Intensive Care physician and Certified Life Coach for physicians. I serve as APD for a Pediatric Residency Program and am involved in wellness and burnout prevention initiatives for faculty and residents within our medical school.

I am the proud mother of two amazing boys that have taught me so much about life and love. I have a passion for movement, music, wellness, and embracing intuition and empathy and each of our own unique gifts. I love getting outside, connecting with nature, and engaging in activities within our community.

My journey

Physician Life Coach Dr. Ashley Sandeen

After working for years to achieve many of my career and life aspirations, I was surprised by the thoughts and feelings I had once I got there. I was overwhelmed, exhausted, lacked joy and contentment, and felt inadequate in both my career and home life. Life events further magnified these feelings to the point I no longer recognized the person I was, or the life I had worked so hard to create. Through a women physicians CME event, I became exposed to life coaches that focused on physicians and began working with a coach myself. That experience has completely transformed my life. Now, years later, I have become certified in life coaching and have a passion to share the knowledge and tools I have learned with physicians at all levels of training and practice. Through self-discovery and growth I have strengthened my intuition and have been able to embrace my authenticity, purpose, and inner truth.
