I help women in public health reduce their stress.

Without having to quit their job.

๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿผ Meet your new burnout recovery coach

Iโ€™m Marissa McKool, MPH

โ€œI'm able to stop all the housework that will never end and take a minute to sit on the couch with my family, even if everything isn't done that I wanted it to be done. โ€

โ€” Margaret M.

Is this you?

  • You wake up dreading work & counting down the days until the weekend.

  • You have too much work & not enough time.

  • You delay lunch or eat it at your desk to try to catch up.

  • You rush home late because itโ€™s impossible to finish on time.

  • You end up checking emails on nights and weekends.

You feel overly responsible for everything and everyone else so your self-care ends up last on your list.

And at your jobโ€ฆ

  • Youโ€™re undervalued and underpaid.

  • There is no clear direction or support.

  • Your leadership is also burnt out.

  • Turnover is constant and funding is unstable.

  • Your boss or colleagues are difficult to work with.

This is hurting your personal life.

Poor Health

  • You donโ€™t eat healthy and rely on take-out and frozen meals.

  • Even though youโ€™re exhausted, you donโ€™t get enough sleep

  • You rarely workout, let alone have a consistent exercise routine.

Struggling Relationships

  • Youโ€™re short & reactive towards everyone around you.

  • During family time, youโ€™re interrupted by emails and work.

  • Youโ€™re distracted, disengaged, and not present during time off.

No leisure time

  • You donโ€™t have hobbies or plans outside of work.

  • You canโ€™t take time for yourself without feeling guilty.

Financial stress

  • Youโ€™re under-earning in your job.

  • Because you have no time, you impulse shop or buy things at surge prices last minute.

  • Youโ€™re struggling to achieve financial goals like buying a house or having another kid.

Youโ€™ve tried to change it.

But nothing seems to work.

Now youโ€™re wondering if the only option is to quit?

It isnโ€™t.

Imagine your life when you:

  • Eat lunch away from your desk without it causing you to get behind.

  • End work on time so you can be present with your family.

  • Turn off from work on weekends, flex days, and vacations.

  • Get regular sleep and have the energy to focus on your health again.

  • Stop missing out on time with friends.

  • Start focusing on your personal goals and hobbies.

  • Finally have time to work out regularly.

  • Are less reactive with your partner or kids.

You can have this without quitting your job.

You wonโ€™t find this anywhere else in public health.

Not in grad programs, HR departments, at professional development panels, or public health conferences.

I know, because I tried all that.

I got my MPH from Emory, completed a CDC fellowship, and secured a leadership position at UC Berkeley all before I was 30.

But I was secretly miserable and burnt out.

I spent years following all the advice to meditate, do yoga, advocate at work, use Asana, and I even went to therapy.

None of it worked to eliminate my burnout.

Until I started coaching

I learned applied tools that actually helped me reduce stress and get more time back without quitting my job.

And it ended my burnout.

Even with all the problems in the public health field.

Now I am teaching you everything (AND MORE!) in my program that helped me:

๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿผ Stop checking email outside of work.

๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿผ Get SO good at setting boundaries I had colleagues asking for help saying no.

๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿผ Take a three-week international vacation.

๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿผ Get 8 hours of sleep a night.

๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿผ Leave the office by 3:30 pm every day.

๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿผ Have time to work out and make healthy meals

๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿผ And SO MUCH MORE.

This didnโ€™t hurt my career, it helped it.

My work became so effective and efficient that I got a promotion with a $10,000 raise.
