Dr. Shana Johnston

I’m Dr. Shana Johnston. I have been a family practice and maternity doctor since 1998. I am a very empathic person and feel things very deeply. This was a huge asset when it came to supporting my patients through the many challenges of living this human life. It also made me more sensitive to the challenges of working in a volume-based system, where I had to run from one patient encounter to the next every 10 minutes. This ultimately led to my “burnout” in August 2020 and leaving my practice in April 2021. As part of my healing journey, I created a group medical visit called “Connecting in Community” where I brought women together to explore some of the tools I was using on my healing journey and later recorded an online version called “Reclaiming our Power, Reclaiming Ourselves” in order to make it available to more women. 

In August 2023, the hormone changes of menopause really ramped up and sent me into a bit of a tailspin. It took me several months to regain my footing but I learned so much about myself in the process. This challenging journey inspired me to create my latest course “Coming Home to Ourselves at Midlife” helping women navigate the rocky hormonal journey of the menopausal transition.
