Summary

  • Dr. Shola Ezeokoli is the CEO of Balance with Dr. Shola and the Physician Heal Yourself brand. Known for her vibrant personality and innovative approach to physician coaching, Dr. Shola is passionate about helping early to mid-career physicians create lives of more wealth, autonomy, freedom, and fun through her work as a professional coach, speaker, and author.


    As a triple licensed Internal Medicine Doctor with twenty years of clinical experience, Dr. Shola understands the unique challenges of the medical profession. After suffering burnout early in her career, and witnessing her high-achieving colleagues suffer under the intense pressure that comes with a career in medicine, Dr. Shola decided she wanted to do more to support her fellow doctors to fix the burdens of high stress, and beat burnout. This desire led her to explore her interests and talents outside of medicine and use them to help her colleagues.


    A firm believer that physicians can achieve balance and harmony by exploring their diverse range of talents outside of medicine, Dr. Shola guides her clients through the process of identifying and capitalizing on their unique talents, so they can lead happy, productive lives, free of stress and burnout.


    Dr. Shola is an in-demand speaker who helps educate, motivate, and empower her audiences. She never fails to show up as her authentic self and inspires others to do the same.


    She has appeared on Fox 32 News and WVON radio in Chicago and as a guest on Outcome Health TV, an educational TV network shown in waiting rooms across the United States, including the University of Chicago, Stanford University, Walgreens and Kaiser Permanente.
