I have learned so much from you and the other ladies in the program. You created a wonderful community as well.

I am stronger and more confident too. Thank you.”

Thriving After Burnout

Harnessing the strength of unity, I leveraged the force of community to amplify our voices and extend support to women experiencing burnout.

I skillfully led a collective of more than 50 women physicians, encouraging them to open up and share their personal narratives on overcoming burnout and discovering effective coping strategies. Our book became a best-seller on Amazon.

The profound impact of our collaboration manifested in the form of a bestselling book on Amazon. It is a testament to the potency that lies within the collective strength of numbers.

“Sharon’s group has been a lifeline for me. Starting an entrepreneurial journey as a full-time practicing physician can feel like trying to climb a mountain alone. Being in FPE is like being guided by someone (SHARON) who has been up the mountain several times with a team of like-minded women physicians who support each other along the way! I’m so grateful for encouragement from all the women in this group!”

How We Serve Others

Events

Our events specifically address the distinct challenges that women physicians frequently encounter, they can serve as a powerful catalyst for motivating women to overcome self-doubt, imposter syndrome, and various confidence-related obstacles. This newfound empowerment, in turn, leads to heightened levels of engagement, productivity, and the realization of greater leadership potential among female team members, ultimately resulting in broader benefits for the entire organization.

Community

The Female Physician Entrepreneurs (FPE) community is a vibrant network dedicated to empowering women physicians to explore, launch, and grow their own businesses. Founded on the belief that physicians are natural leaders and innovators, FPE provides a supportive space for collaboration, education, and inspiration. Through monthly meetups, workshops, and mentorship opportunities, members gain the tools and confidence to transition into entrepreneurship, share their expertise beyond clinical practice, and build businesses that align with their values and passions.

Writing

Writing serves as a powerful tool for cultivating peace in our lives by providing a safe space for self-expression, reflection, and introspection. Through the act of putting pen to paper, we are able to explore our thoughts, feelings, and experiences with honesty and vulnerability. This process allows us to gain clarity on our emotions, identify patterns and triggers, and release pent-up stress and anxiety. We provide writing opportunities such as Thriving a Burnout, a book that over 50 of us wrote.

Sharon McLaughlin MD MBA

In my earlier days as a plastic surgeon, I grappled with a lack of confidence that hindered my ability to assert myself and establish clear boundaries, eventually leading to burnout. I did the inner work and became a certified executive coach. Today, I am passionate about empowering other women to help build a life that has both purpose and peace.

I oversee the Female Physician Entrepreneurs Group, dedicated to providing women physicians with a nurturing environment to acquire knowledge in the field of business. Our community of over 10,000 women physicians fosters networking, learning, personal growth, and empowerment.Whether you’re interested in technology, healthcare, book writing, coaching, or consulting, we have a wide range of resources to support your endeavors.
