Think multitasking makes you more productive? Think again. Research shows it actually increases cognitive load, reduces efficiency, and contributes to burnout.
There’s a better way: single-tasking. This simple shift can enhance focus, boost productivity, and support both physical and mental well-being.
Hi, I’m Coral, founder of root & rise strategies.
I’ve seen firsthand how the demands of medicine—long hours, leadership pressure, and systemic burnout—can take a toll on even the most dedicated physicians. Too often, the people caring for others are left with little support themselves. I founded root & rise strategies to change that.
I coach physicians to navigate career transitions, burnout, and leadership challenges—helping them thrive in their work without sacrificing their well-being. I partner with medical departments to build sustainable strategies for retention, leadership development, and systemic well-being (because physician support isn’t just an individual responsibility—it’s a leadership priority). As a speaker, I bring evidence-based insights and actionable solutions to the stage, equipping healthcare teams with the tools to create lasting change.
Medicine needs better support. Let’s build it together.
