The Doctor Coach School™ Podcast
Dr. Kimmy is a double Board Certified Pediatric Hospitalist, CEO of The Doctor Coach School™️, and host of The Doctor Coach School™ Podcast. This podcast was created in order to help doctors, particularly women doctors of color, create, market, and confidently sell transformational coaching programs. Dr. Kimmy first built her business as a Procrastination Coach in 2019, helping professional women break the cycle of self-sabotage so that they could level up their lives, after she was able to push through procrastination and develop systems and processes to overcome her own overwhelm. She built a multi 6-figure coaching business from scratch and while working full time. Dr. Kimmy then began helping women doctors master their messaging and learn how to sell. She was able to help several of her clients develop thriving coaching businesses and sell high-ticket, high-impact coaching. This led to the creation of The Doctor Coach School™️. In DCS, Dr. Kimmy recognizes that the very tools that she developed to coach herself and her clients are also effective to market and sell. DCS is the only coaching school created specifically for physicians and dentists: in it, she helps doctors utilize their unique training of diagnosis and treatment in order to help them achieve results for their clients, market their coaching business, and sell their coaching with confidence. On the DCS podcast, you will learn how to pivot your story into your intellectual property, master your messaging through StorySelling, and sell with confidence. You will learn how to overcome your own mental and emotional blocks, and to teach those very skills to your clients.

Hiding in Plain Sight: ADHD, Rejection, and Showing Up While Disappearing
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
After a two-month break from the mic (and an incredible client takeover series), I’m back on The Doctor Coach School™ Podcast with one of the most vulnerable episodes I’ve ever recorded.
In this deeply personal reflection, I share how my December 2025 ADHD diagnosis helped me finally make sense of the last three years of my life and business—and how rejection, unprocessed grief, and self-protection slowly pulled me out of my own marketing while I was still technically “showing up.”
This episode is about what it looks like to keep producing, keep serving, keep grinding—while quietly disappearing from yourself.
In This Episode, You’ll Hear:
- Why I stepped away from the podcast—and what changed while I was gone
- How my December 2025 ADHD diagnosis reframed my entire life story (and my business story)
- How I went from believing “I’m neurotypical but deficient” to recognizing that I’m neurodivergent
- The moment of rejection in 2023 that created the core belief: “They don’t want me.”
- How rejection sensitivity and emotional dysregulation showed up (what I now understand as ADHD/RSD)
- What “hiding in plain sight” looked like for me: removing myself from my marketing slowly, gradually, unconsciously
- How my content shifted from story-led to framework-heavy—and why selling started to feel harder
- The compounding layers of perimenopause, masking, burnout, trauma, and a shrinking sense of safety
- A raw look at 2025: increasing mistakes, relying on AI for messaging, delegating my authority away, and feeling spiritually abandoned
- The turning point in July 2025, when I sought God in my lowest moment and experienced deep healing and intimacy with Jesus
- How TikTok unexpectedly opened the door to ADHD awareness and self-recognition
- My diagnosis journey, medication changes (Strattera → Adderall → Vyvanse), and the grief work I’m doing in therapy
- What’s changing now as I rebuild, show my face again, and re-enter my business with my full self
