Hey there, I’m Mel.

Welcome, surgeon! Congratulations for investing in yourself! You truly deserve it. My name is Mel Thacker, and I am a professional certified coach and surgeon who realized the career I thought I signed up for wasn’t at all what I expected. While I went through my own period of completely falling apart and losing myself before coaching ultimately helped me build myself back up, I truly believe you can spare yourself years of suffering and dissatisfaction by learning and implementing these life-changing tools right away. That’s the mission of this program. I have spent the last year and hundreds of hours conceptualizing a program that incorporates coaching philosophy into the world of surgery. The result is this program! Take your scrubs off, get cozy with a fuzzy blanket and cup of tea, and let’s dive in!

Important Podcast Episodes to Check Out

Surgeons with Purpose Podcast is a body of work that introduces many of the concepts we will cover in coaching, like thought work, processing emotions, reframing drama, and getting back in your own business. If you find an episode resonates deeply, I highly recommend listening to it more than once.
