About you

AbouT You

 

 

You know that something has to change.
 

Your well-being at work is at risk. Whether it’s compassion fatigue, stress, long hours, burnout, or all of the above. You sometimes wonder if veterinary medicine is right for you. You are still trying to do your best, but something doesn't feel right, and you have lost the joy of your everyday life. 

I have been there,  and I know what it feels like.

Maybe there is a better way to cope with the stress and strain of our day-to-day life.  Negative emotion is a valuable signal: imagine touching a hot stove. You immediately remove your hand to avoid a painful burn. Now, ask why you hold onto negative emotions like anger, stress, and disappointment for more than a few seconds. The impact of dwelling on our negative emotions compounds the stress and strain we face each day in the roles we play. 

 

Several years ago, the Positive Intelligence program significantly reduced the stress in my role as Hospital Director. Now, as a certified Positive Intelligence coach, I have worked with dozens of veterinarians and teams, achieving similar results. The Positive Intelligence program will help you find a better way forward to reconnect with the joy of everyday life. 

If you are motivated, willing to learn, and ready to commit to developing your best self, then let's connect
 

Our initial conversation is complimentary and always confidential.

One of my roles as your Coach will be to introduce you to—and guide you through—the Positive Intelligence (PQ) Program, a set of tools that strengthen the Sage part of your brain that serves you and quiet the part that Sabotages you. 

Your personal PQ is a measure of mental fitness. If you’re mentally fit, you can handle life’s significant challenges with a positive mindset, and fewer negative emotions (including stress).

This innovative program offers research-based (more than 500,000 participants from 50 countries), and measurable results (PQ scores, and brain rewiring may be visible on fMRI imaging within 8 weeks). 
 

Positive Intelligence is an operating system with many applications, impacting all areas of your life.

About me

AbouT Me

Doctor Bill

I've experienced the ups and downs of practice life.

 

Over the last 30+ years, I've learned to adapt to the daily challenges of professional practice, became an ABVP Diplomate in canine and feline practice, and gained the resilience to thrive as co-owner and manager of two AAHA-certified multi-doctor clinics. I am happily married and the proud father of two amazing kids and two dogs (Coco and Georgia). 

Now, as a Board-Certified Coach and Certified Positive Intelligence Coach, my primary focus is to help Veterinarians and Hospital Teams reconnect with the greatness within them and rediscover the joy of everyday practice life. 

After decades of sports and fitness training, my other focus is longevity coaching. I help individuals of all ages approach late-career and retirement with a strong emphasis on physical fitness and a healthy lifestyle.

 

I have found that quick-fix solutions can be helpful, but lasting change — leading to personal transformation — is made possible through Mental Fitness training. This powerful, science-based program enhances emotional intelligence and strengthens one's ability to respond positively to life's challenges.

Together, we'll work towards a mindset shift that leads to renewed clarity, passion and purpose in all areas of your personal and professional life. 


Coaching is an investment in you.

He also helped me build up my resilience to a higher level than I can ever imagine but most importantly, he was patient and can completely identify with the many challenges I face in real life and was able to help me focus on the longer term goal and my overall happiness and job satisfaction. “ Thank you.
