Why I Paused Coaching Healthcare Leaders and Why I'm Bringing It Back Now

What happens when something you created and loved no longer reflects who you've become or the work you're called to do? Sometimes you don't need to quit. You need to pause, reassess, and come back differently. After stepping away from Coaching Healthcare Leaders, Dr. Lisa Herbert is back behind the microphone, and this isn't simply a return. It's a reset. During her time away, Dr. Lisa spent more time listening: coaching healthcare leaders behind closed doors, working with organizations, and hearing physicians talk about what happens when they don't feel heard, supported, or valued. Those conversations revealed an important pattern: The resignation is rarely where the problem begins. Long before someone leaves, disengagement, unresolved conflict, communication breakdowns, leadership challenges, and conversations that simply aren't happening may set in. In this comeback episode, Dr. Lisa shares why she paused the podcast, what changed during her time away, and why she's bringing Coaching Healthcare Leaders back with a clearer mission. You'll hear: • Why stepping away doesn't always mean giving up • What coaching healthcare leaders has taught Dr. Lisa about the problems beneath physician disengagement and turnover • Why healthcare organizations need to recognize leadership problems earlier • How Clinical + Coaching + Culture™ has become the foundation of her work • What to expect from this new chapter, including candid conversations, healthcare leader stories, and real coaching conversations This season, we're bringing some of the conversations happening behind closed doors out of the coaching room. Because healthcare doesn't just need more leaders. We need leaders who know how to listen, recognize what's happening beneath the surface, and have the conversations that matter before a leadership problem becomes a turnover problem. 🎙️ Subscribe to Coaching Healthcare Leaders and join us for this next chapter.
