Turning the page on burnout: our Founder’s recovery story.
Healthcare simply wasn’t sustainable for Sophie.
While training to become a dietician, Sophie Ash grappled daily with the toxic, unsustainable working environment that ensnared her. Overworked and under-appreciated, with no control over her schedule or caseload, she became trapped in a vicious cycle of exhaustion and overwhelming demands and longed for a way out.
Burnout put an end to Sophie’s dietetics career.
Sophie's grueling schedule wreaked havoc on her health, and it didn’t take long before she burned out completely. Suffering from severe depression, anxiety, insomnia, digestive issues, and “phantom” stomach pain, she avoided going out or seeing anyone, eventually having to drop out of healthcare altogether.
Freelance writing offered a much-needed “way out.”
Sophie landed her first writing gig in 2014, while studying for a Nutritional Therapy diploma. Working from home allowed her to finally start meeting her own needs, and her health improved dramatically. Emigrating to Canada in 2016 presented an opportunity for Sophie to further grow her writing business
Sophie is now living a freedom-focused lifestyle.
Sophie was soon one of the top 3 medical writers in Toronto, making regular $10k-$12k months while enjoying her newfound freedom. Now a full-time business coach for freelance medical writers, she spends her free time travelling with her cat, performing in dance videos, and soaking up the sun in San Diego.
"Nothing is more energizing than shaping your own destiny."

Burning out as a critical care nurse, Allison longed to create a business that could replace her full-time income and allow her to carve out her own path in life, all while finding a better work-life balance.
But many things were holding Allison back from pursuing her dream writing career. She struggled with self-promotion, finding it challenging to network. She also worried that not having a PhD or MD title would make finding a foothold in the industry difficult.
After taking the leap, Allison landed her first client just three weeks into Prospology’s coaching program and secured two more clients before graduating. She’s been busy ever since!
“I just quit my nursing job! The lack of resources and concern for proper patient care finally got to me, and I quit. Thanks for helping me break free—I’m onto bigger and better things.”
Tiffany enjoyed working in retail pharmacy, but with long hours and a busy schedule, she never felt like she had enough time or energy to focus on herself or her creative interests.
Tiffany entered Prospology’s coaching program with the goal of launching her own freelance writing business, reducing her pharmacy hours, and being able to enjoy more flexibility, fulfilment, and opportunities for personal growth.
She was ready to take the leap into entrepreneurship, but needed clear direction to niche herself in the market, develop a stand-out brand image, and make sure she would be well-compensated for her expertise.
“Being in the program sparked interest in niches I didn’t know existed but knew my skill set aligned with. I felt like I was given access to a secret world of possibilities!”
A new entrepreneur, Tenneisa was always wondering what would go wrong next, expecting to find holes in her logic, or looking for pot holes on the horizon.
But, after just three months of personalized business coaching, Tenneisa’s confidence skyrocketed and she soon became fully-booked with writing projects. Deciding to take her business to the next level with Prospology changed her entire outlook on life!
For Tenneisa, there’s a direct correlation between how connected she feels to her identity and her business success. Therefore, learning how to strengthen her brand, combined with the confidence she gained in representing herself online, allowed Tenneisa to lean fully into her specialty area, surpassing others in the arena as well as her personal income goals.
“I have more clients than I can handle! I have easily surpassed the income I made working 90+ hours per week as a physician. I used to be so skeptical, but not anymore!”
