The Busy Physician 120-Day Mastermind
Are you ready to start putting your most important patient first?
Gail Gazelle MD, MCC | 500+ Physicians Coached
A proven step-by-step system to get over physician burnout and love the career and life you’ve worked so hard for, even if you’re miserable today.
Before my career as a professor and a physician coach I was a practicing physician, just like you.
And I was burned out.
I was a hospice physician and a mother and I felt like a complete failure at both.
I dreaded work.
I barely had the energy to get out of bed, and I didn’t feel worthy of any of my accomplishments.
Every night dinner was takeout or freezer-food, I had a permanently furrowed brow, and was becoming numb to my patients’ suffering.
I knew something had to change, so I hired a specialized coach for doctors, Sarah.
It was the first time I’d felt understood in years.
Sarah was incredible – she helped me set in place new patterns, reinstill presence and joy, and actually feel pride as a doctor and mother.
I never looked back.
I was quickly promoted to CMO, gained responsibility as faculty at Harvard Medical School, and started a household routine of cooking dinner and watching Shark Tank with my son.
I developed the confidence in myself to start this business as a coach for doctors, where I have personally coached 500+ physicians. And I gained the time and energy to start doing things for myself (I LOVE pickleball!)
If I never got over physician burnout, I never would have been able to live the life I have today.
What are YOU missing out on?
Maybe you’re never being quite as present as you wish you were. Always having another patient note on your mind, letting weddings, sporting events, important time with loved ones passing by while your mind runs rampant.
Maybe you never fully develop that full confidence in yourself. Feeling like an imposter, or maybe just not fully owning your own success. You never set those firm boundaries and wind up taking care of everybody but your most important patient – yourself.
Or maybe you just never truly find joy in your career. Days, weeks, months passing by, Sunday nights where you dread clocking in the next day.
You’ve tried therapy, podcasts or self-help books – great resources for the general population.
But going to a therapist or reading Brene Brown for overcoming physician burnout is like going to a minute clinic for leukemia.
Imagine finally feeling like there are enough hours in your day.
Being able to be fully present with your patients, and then completely turn work off after work and actually live your life and be present with your family.
You won’t be constantly thinking about the charts you still have to get done, or the patient visits from the day. You’ll actually LOOK FORWARD to your next day, and be able to be proud and confident in the difference that you’re making.
I mean, think about it:
You have a lung problem, you go to a Pulmonologist. You have stomach ulcers, you see a Gastroenterologist.
You wouldn’t go to a generalist with a specialist problem would you? Of course not. I mean you could – and they could probably give you some basic answers – but you wouldn’t truly be getting the help you need.
This is what physician coaching is for. I mean wouldn’t it be amazing if there was somewhere you could go – like a school – that coaches doctors like you looking to start loving life? Well that place actually exists. And it’s right here waiting for you.
Your physician coach teaches you the skills, strategies, and habits medical school never taught you on how to actually have an enjoyable, sustainable career in medicine (because if they taught you what you needed to know, you wouldn’t be here, right?)
And most importantly, you’ll have time for YOU.
That’s why I created the 120-Day Busy Physician Mastermind – a step-by-step physician coaching system to help physicians like you enjoy the life they’ve worked so hard for, so you can avoid burnout, eradicate self-doubt, put your most important patient first, and ultimately live the life that you want.
I’ve distilled decades of learning and every possible resource and support into a streamlined Mastermind that gives you exactly what you need to start enjoying your career and life as fast as possible.
And if you liked how your life could look after physician coaching, keep reading, because I’ve helped 500+ physicians get to that exact place. Here’s what some of them have to say:
“Balanced, grounded, and truly happy”
“I came to Gail burned out, down about my work, and dreading every shift. After only 3 sessions with Gail, I don’t dread my shifts anymore, and now feel balanced, grounded, and truly happy with my work life, which I haven’t felt in years.”
“I owe Gail my peace of mind”
“After practicing Emergency Medicine for 12 years, I was completely burned out, experiencing profound dread prior to every shift, and a major sense of frustration. After working with Gail for less than 3 months, my mind is more at ease while at work and the angst that I experienced beforehand has begun to fade. I now have a restored sense of what I want for myself, my family and my career in medicine going forward. I owe Gail my peace of mind and will forever be indebted to her.”
“I am more confident”
“The time that I spent working with Gail has been invaluable for my career and personal well-being. Through careful listening and understanding how my mind “ticks”, Gail helped me develop an arsenal of tools for daily interactions that I used to find draining. I am more confident, ruminating less, and much happier!”
What Is Physician Coaching?
Here’s a quick overview of what physician coaching is and what it is not:
What Physician Coaching Is
A dynamic individualized process tailored to you and your goals
A crash-course on everything medical school should have taught you, but didn’t
A growth-oriented process with your dedicated strategist, advocate, and physician coach
Guidance for you from a former physician who gets it
Action-oriented, goal-focused, helping you be at your best today
Structured with accountability and support for you every step of the way
Designed to help you make real change that lasts (fast)
What Physician Coaching Is Not
Boring, stale, and passive
Slow
A deep dive into everything that’s happened in your life since third grade
A cookie-cutter, one-sizes fits all process
DIY fixing your career and life (you’ve tried that)
Therapy

But how do I know The Busy Physician 120-day Mastermind will work for me?
I’m so confident that you’ll see the same massive success in this program as so many other physicians I’ve coached that I’m offering you not one, but two guarantees!
My Guarantees:
Your Blueprint guarantee: If you aren’t totally in love with the Burnout Free Blueprint I create for you, if you don’t get unreasonably excited by it and see it as the best path to getting your life back from the broken medical system, I require you to ask for your money back. My goal is to bring you to tears with this plan.
Why this matters for you: You get to see the actual steps you will follow (with our guidance) to get you actually enjoying your career—so you can actually feel confident instead of taking a leap of faith.
“Smile on Sunday” Guarantee: If you follow everything we coach you on over the next 120 days and still aren’t smiling in anticipation of the week ahead – being proud of your work, being more efficient, and being more able to drop the Dread and shrug off the s** t, we’ll work with you one-on-one for an extra month for free.
Why this matters for you: You get to make your investment with the certainty that you will Smile on Sunday as you think about your work week ahead. It is actual risk removal.
And if that isn’t enough risk removal, hear first-hand from a few of the HUNDREDS of docs I’ve coached below.
What Physicians Are Saying About Our Coaching
“I have gained an arsenal of skills”
“I came to coaching to resolve workplace issues that seemed intractable and left me feeling powerless. In just three months of working with Gail, I have gained an arsenal of skills and strategies that help me be more productive and content at work. If you’re looking to increase your confidence and make changes in your life, coaching with Gail can really help.”
“I am closing my notes faster”
“Gail’s charting coaching helped me see how much my mindset was contributing to my difficulty getting my charts done. I now see that I was making my notes into something much more than a note. It was so helpful seeing that it is not all me! I can now give myself permission to drop my perfectionism, and I am closing my notes faster and not having them build up in the same way!”
“I felt supported every step of the way”
“Gail’s unique combination of strengths — her intelligence, compassion, perception, and enthusiasm — are unmatched. Her fun, yet focused, style of coaching connected me to the best version of myself and helped me move forward personally and professionally into a life that is fulfilling and purposeful. With her encouragement, I felt supported every step of the way.”
“Landed the leadership role I’ve long wanted”
“Gail helped me recognize and articulate my strengths and values, improve my professionalism as a physician, and develop the servant-leadership skills needed to support my career growth. As a result of our work, I’m much happier in my job, have stronger skills for working with non-physician administrators, and have landed the leadership role I’ve long wanted.”
“Living a much happier and full life”
“Coaching with Gail has been an enjoyable and transformative journey beginning with burnout, a sense of desperation, and doing more and more to prove my worth. With Gail’s mindfulness coaching, I have more authenticity, ease, and enjoyment both at work and at home. The challenges in professional and family life remain, but I am more efficient and at ease with my clinical work, more comfortable with a wider range of emotions, and am living a much happier and full life. Thank you so much Gail.”
“A professional game changer”
“Coaching with Gail was a professional game changer for me. She helped liberate me from long-standing impostor feelings and facilitated the emergence of my true leadership self. Thank you Gail.”

FAQ
How long will it take me to start looking forward to working again?
My goal is to get you to a place where you rest well and smile on Sunday night because you’re actually looking forward to the career you spent a decade training for. That means, at the very least, the 120-day Mastermind will have already gotten you smiling by then.
We even offer a guarantee of Sunday Smiles to everyone who qualifies for the program
How much time will this take? I’m already extremely busy.
My program was designed with busy physicians in mind. (It is called the Busy Physician Mastermind…)
Your coaching program will integrate into YOUR schedule and physicians have reported huge results in a minimal amount of time.
Whatever time they put into the program, the average doc we work with reports saving at least double that.
How? When we teach you how to turn off your mind, stop ruminating, chart more efficiently, set better boundaries, manage your time better, and put your most important patient first, clients tell us that they begin to feel like there are actually 24 hours in the day.
This is time that you’ll get back forever. After the program, you can enjoy more time with your spouse, and kids, (they will thank you!) and finally have time for your most important patient: yourself.
What do I need “in line already” in my life/practice to make the most of the program?
You don’t need to magically clear your overbooked schedule, or be in a place where life doesn’t feel crazy. If you wait until your life isn’t crazy to make a change, you might be burned out forever…
Thinking you “aren’t ready” for coaching is usually just fear talking. And if you think you don’t have enough hours in the day to do coaching, that’s probably why you need it!
But that’s also why we talk to you 1:1 before you can become a client. Because on the off chance you legitimately aren’t ready for coaching, we’ll tell you ourselves.
What if this doesn’t work for my specialty?
This is my favorite question. 🙂
In my 12-year career as a physician coach and faculty at Harvard Med, I have personally coached 500+ doctors. Every specialty, every background, every issue, and nearly every state.
Be it workplace politics, challenging administrators, leadership development, burnout, career dissatisfaction, charting woes, loss of purpose, or any other reason why you don’t look forward to work today, we’ve seen it dozens of times and we can help.
If you are a physician any less than thrilled with your career and life, odds are I can show you an example of a client like you we’ve helped. Just ask when you book your call.
Is physician coaching the same thing as therapy?
Absolutely not. Therapy is a valuable general support meant to aid with mental health issues, primarily by delving into your past. There’s nothing wrong with it and for many, it helps with the symptoms of being a struggling doc in the modern medical system.
However, it’s too generalized for physicians looking for real career fulfillment. Just like you wouldn’t go to a minute clinic for an appendectomy, you wouldn’t go to a therapist to regain your career happiness as a doctor.
Physician coaching is a highly specialized, individually tailored, dynamic, action-oriented process designed to help you love your work as quickly as possible. In 120 days, to be exact :).
Here are other docs who have gotten back to enjoying life:
More Physician Lives Changed
“Tools to manage self-doubting beliefs”
“Working with Gail helped me in a number of ways. She provided me the tools to manage self-doubting beliefs that were holding me back and keeping me from recognizing my full worth to patients and colleagues. She also helped me think through and prioritize opportunities so they’re based not only on career advancement but also on family and personal fulfillment and alignment. I would recommend coaching with Gail to any physician looking to increase resilience and focus on what truly matters!“”
“I feel more relaxed”
“Gail Gazelle is a compassionate and insightful person, who will work hard to get you to moving toward your goals. Coaching with Dr. Gazelle helped me step back and begin to align all aspects of my life toward the goals I choose. I feel more relaxed and also am becoming the captain of my own ship. Dr. Gazelle’s dedication to her work is obvious, and with her skills and talents, you will find yourself advancing toward a new you before you know it.”
“I emerged with a clear sense of what matters most to me”
“I began coaching with Dr. Gazelle during a time of great change in my life. I was continually evaluating what felt authentic to me and what I truly wanted, and trying to let go of the “shoulds” that had been a big part of my life. Gail was instrumental in the process; she listened deeply, frequently hearing what I was saying “between the lines” and reading my body language and facial expression. I emerged with a clear sense of what matters most to me as well as a growing ability to autocorrect when I start to stray off course. I cannot recommend her highly enough!”
“Won a leadership role”
“Gail has helped me take my career productivity and happiness to the next level. In the span of working together for just 3 months, I successfully studied for and passed licensing boards without procrastinating. I applied for and won a leadership role in my department that I wouldn’t have thought to consider a few months ago. I am spending my time pushing goals forward and enjoying my family instead of spinning my wheels on worrying thanks to helpful mental constructs she has helped me develop. I can’t wait to see what the next few months working together will bring!”
“She challenged me to become the best version of myself”
“It is an honor to work with Dr. Gazelle. Her approach to charting efficiency is so humane, and filled with so much understanding of what goes on in a physician’s daily life. She has helped me develop a mindset of focusing on what is really important both in work and life, and has given me the tools to accomplish it. She has challenged me to become the best version of myself. Thank you!!”
“I am more present with my daughters and my husband”
“Before coaching with Gail, I was miserable. I hated going to work. I felt like my patients were a burden and the front desk staff and the medical assistants were out to get me. I found Gail on the Internet and I jumped in with both feet. It has been worth every penny and then some.
I have the same job with the same inexperienced supervisor, the same staff, and the same patients but I have changed. My outlook and attitude have changed. I have developed tools to help me with the difficult administrator and staff. I enjoy the patients again. I enjoy the discovery of medicine again. I do not feel that everyone is against me. I am more present with my daughters and my husband.
It was the best money I have ever spent.”
Are you ready to put your most important patient first and have enough hours in day?
