Coaching & Community for healthcare workers tired of the status quo.

If you believe that healing others doesn’t mean sacrificing yourself, welcome. You’re in the right place.

Hi! I’m Dr. Jess.

I help exhausted healthcare workers break free from the grind, find the spark they thought they lost, and FINALLY build the life they want.

I’m a doctor, coach, startup cofounder, and trauma expert. But a few short years ago, I was a statistic: Another burned out primary care provider counting down the days towards early retirement. I was comfortably numb, going through the motions on a career path that was sucking the life out of me.

But in 2019, my life changed in an instant as I got a wake-up call that catapulted me out of apathy and launched me onto the wildest journey back to my self and my true purpose.

Fast forward to today—I’m living my dream, with a career that’s fully aligned with who I am and what I love—And I actually look forward to Mondays.

Sound Familiar?

You’ve climbed the career ladder in your field, finishing all the degrees and certifications, landing the job, making the salary…and yet. Something is wrong. The satisfaction you thought was just around the corner? It still eludes you. The difference you dreamed of making? Hard to achieve as you spend more time with your screens then living humans.

You are not sure how much longer you can keep going at this pace, and are questioning, well, everything.

If this resonates, you’re not alone - and you’re not out of options. I created Healing Chiron as a safe space for healthcare professionals like you to find the support, tools, and insights needed to create your dream career, even when that seems impossible. I’m really glad you’re here.

Healing Chiron is a philosophy and coaching program designed to help healthcare professionals like you navigate trauma and burnout, regain their power, and (re)discover their purpose. In a few short months, you will be well on your way to creating your dream career. Are you ready for a new chapter?

This Space is for you if:

You have completely lost sight of the passionate excited person who began this career

Your job is impacting your relationships, your happiness, and your health.

You aren’t certain what you want, but you know you this isn’t it. You feel absolutely stuck.

You’ve switched jobs, maybe multiple times, and something is still missing

You realize life is short, and being comfortably numb is no longer acceptable.

You are done putting off your dream life until the weekend, or when the kids are grown, and are ready to begin building it now.

ABOUT HEALING CHIRON

  • My ultimate goal as a guide and coach is for you to stop living vicariously, and start actually living.

    I have found over the years that healthcare workers are so used to living in our heads that we ignore the wisdom from our hearts and souls. My approach combines intuitive insight, holistic healing, and real-world coaching and mindset strategies to support rapid transformation.

  • Breaking free from the status quo to chart your unique purpose-driven life path requires the right tools, the right knowledge, and being a bit of an oddball at times. As a life-long oddball myself, I am thrilled to show you how to do this step-by-step using evidence-based coaching techniques combined with deep healing work and unwavering support. The process that I have been refining for the last five years will support your journey from exhaustion to empowerment so that you can design a life you look forward to vs. trying to escape from.

  • Chiron is the archetype of the wounded healer in Greek mythology, and represents the paradox of those called to work in healthcare–despite our deep knowledge of medicine, we are often unable to heal our own wounds. Chiron is also, and I quote, an “oddball” planetary body: half comet, half asteroid, maybe even a planet (!) that doesn’t quite follow the rules of most celestial bodies.

    I tried–and failed–to learn celestial navigation during a sailing voyage that changed my life from Santa Barbara to Baja California, Mexico. My lifelong fascination with the cosmos and the rhythms of the natural world was deepened during that journey. How impossible it seemed, to navigate entire oceans, using nothing but basic tools and a deep knowledge of the cycles of the earth, sea, and sky. That voyage was when everything began to shift for me. Because when you are charting a new life path those tiny glimmers of light–-stars in the darkness–-and a few tools–such as an experienced coach–are all you have to guide you.

Testimonials

  • As a physician going through life changing events and major life transitions, I was struggling with direction and purpose in life. I knew that I needed a specific type of person and was worried I would never find them. I was fairly certain that I would never find this “someone.” But then, I found Jessica DeJarnette and I was proven wrong. Even with my absurdly high expectations, Jessica has exceeded them all. She is exactly what I was looking for and what a life coach should be. In addition to understanding trauma and career changes from personal experience, Jessica has a clear mastery of these and other subject areas from her commitment to education and learning.

  • Prior to starting the sessions I was in despair about work. I felt like a bandage on a geyser. Through the self exploration sessions, Dr. Jess was able to gentle nudge me to shift my perspective about how I view my work. But more importantly, I feel more empowered to set boundaries and re-define how I see myself and my role in my work. While I cannot change the chaos that sometimes ensues due to the nature of healthcare, I can change how I view those moments and how I honor myself during those times so I can continue to strive to bring the best version of myself to work and my patients. I look forward to more sessions with Dr. Jess!

  • When it comes to improving my life as a female physician, it has been so powerful to work closely with another doctor who understands the field. Jess is clearly highly trained and was able to assist me in aligning my desires and goals, which propelled me to make real change. She is easy to talk to and connect with and I found our sessions enlightening, energizing and fun. I highly recommend Dr. Jess for any physician interested in coaching.

  • Dr. Jess’s ability to weave your spiritual, emotional, and work self into each conversation is really new and innovative. I came out of each session feeling lighter and at the conclusion of our time actually had closure and peace that I didn’t expect. Thank you Dr. Jess!!
