#246: From Internal Medicine to TikTok Elder Care Entrepreneur to Pharmaceutical Device Marketing: PA Shay Domangue on Bold Career Changes, Fulfillment & Work-Life Balance

In this episode, I sit down with Shay Domangue, PA-C, whose career path took a bold and inspiring turn — from hospitalist PA/ internal medicine to building her own social media business in elder care to transitioning to marketing development in the pharmaceutical device industry. She's now the Gulf Coast Field Market Development Specialist in the Renal Denervation business unit for Medtronic and is also raising two little humans (with her husband's help).Shay shares what it was like to reach a breaking point in clinical medicine and how listening to that inner voice led her to explore something new. She didn’t just walk away — she walked toward a more aligned, values-based life and career.We talk about the early days of entrepreneurship, the emotional and logistical challenges of building something from scratch, and the surprising role that networking played in her transition into the pharmaceutical industry.Shay opens up about redefining success, protecting her energy, and how work-life balance has become a non-negotiable in her new chapter. She also drops some hard-earned wisdom for clinicians who are feeling stuck or wondering what else is out there — especially if you’ve ever thought, “I can’t do this for 20 more years.”This conversation is for you if you're craving purpose, dreaming of flexibility, or just want to hear from someone who's made a major pivot and lived to tell the tale.CONNECT WITH SHAY:Linkedin.com/in/shaydomangueShay's polypharmacy info on TikTok: @elder.care.hubHOPE'S BOOK:⁠⁠Healing Clinician Burnout, How to Revive Your Life and Career ⁠⁠(available in ebook and paperback)CONNECT AND SIGN UP FOR COACHING:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Hope's Website: www.coachhopecook.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Hope's IG @coachhopecook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Hope's FB @hopeallencook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Hope's LinkedIn: hope-cook-56041283/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Hope's YouTube @coachhopecook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Email: [email protected] y'all, and remember: There's always hope!
