Vicki Abelson, MBA PCC

Certified Professional Coach with over 20 years of healthcare administration experience.

Hi, my name is Vicki Abelson

I help leaders create focus, freedom, and fulfillment, in and out of the office.

Hi, I am Vicki, and I am an executive coach, leadership consultant, and founder of The Defined Leader. I help leaders, in healthcare, consultancies, Fortune 500s, and non-profits—overcome self-doubt, develop unshakable confidence, and lead with clarity and impact.

My Mission

I know firsthand the challenges that come with being a high-achieving woman in a demanding industry. The pressure to perform, the burden of imposter syndrome, and the constant push to balance work and life can feel overwhelming.

I created The Defined Leader—to provide coaching, mentorship, and leadership development specifically designed for women navigating the complexities of healthcare leadership.

My Approach

I use a blend of Core Energy Coaching™, executive leadership strategies, and real-world experience to help women unlock their full leadership potential. My coaching is tailored to:

✔️ Senior and emerging leaders in healthcare who want to lead with confidence
✔️ Women ready to break free from people-pleasing, overworking, and self-doubt
✔️ Leaders seeking mentorship, networking, and leadership growth

Through 1:1 coaching, group programs, and leadership retreats, I create a space where women can refine their leadership skills, gain clarity on their career path, and step into their full authority.
