Meet Bih Bikelle

We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Bih Bikelle. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with BIH below.

BIH, so great to have you with us and we want to jump right into a really important question. In recent years, it’s become so clear that we’re living through a time where so many folks are lacking self-confidence and self-esteem. So, we’d love to hear about your journey and how you developed your self-confidence and self-esteem.

Confidence is faithing the belief in your abilities, skills, and judgment. It’s trusting yourself to
handle life’s challenges, make decisions, and pursue goals, even when the outcome is
uncertain. Self-esteem, on the other hand, is exuding your overall sense of self-worth. With
each layer of my mind, body, and soul I take daily steps in valuing myself by recognizing my
intrinsic worth as a person—regardless of external achievements or opinions.
Building both didn’t happen overnight. It’s been a journey of growth, setbacks, and self-
discovery—especially as I transitioned from Cameroon to the U.S. Let me share (3) principles in
how I built my confidence and self-esteem, and how you can, too.

1. Start with a Strong Foundation.
2. Acknowledge the Power of Preparation.
3. Seek Mentorship and Support.

Confidence and self-esteem aren’t about striving for perfection; they’re about embracing your
potential and recognizing your worth, no matter your past or where you’ve started. These
qualities grow with consistent effort, becoming powerful tools to help you navigate life’s ups and
downs with resilience and purpose. Remember, building confidence is a journey, not a
destination—and if I could rise and strengthen mine, so can you. Believe in yourself, take the
first step, and watch how far you can go.

Thanks for sharing that. So, before we get any further into our conversation, can you tell our readers a bit about yourself and what you’re working on?

I’m Dr. Bih Bikelle, a Board-Certified Psychiatrist, Medical Professional Coach, and Speaker
with over a decade of experience, dedicated to helping individuals and medical professionals
thrive. My work focuses on guiding children, adolescents, and adults through their most
challenging moments, addressing emotional and behavioral struggles with compassion and
expertise.

But my impact goes beyond patient care. I’m equally passionate about empowering medical
professionals—whether they’re just starting their journey or are seasoned experts. My
mentorship and coaching programs are designed to build unshakable confidence, equipping
healthcare providers with enhanced decision-making skills, clinical judgment, and prescribing
strategies. This empowers them to deliver exceptional care to their patients while achieving
lasting career success.

What Makes My Work Unique?
Confidence, Coaching, and Collaboration form the foundation of my brand. My mission is to
nurture a generation of bold, competent, and compassionate medical professionals who leave a
global impact. Together, we’re reshaping the future of healthcare, one confident decision at a
time.

One of the most innovative ways I support professionals is through my 1:1 Chatgram Program.
This personalized coaching service is tailored for busy healthcare providers who need real-time
support but can’t commit to traditional Zoom sessions. Through Chatgram, I offer guidance in
the moment—right when they’re with patients or making critical decisions. This on-the-go
approach ensures they’re supported without interrupting their demanding schedules.

What Else Do I Offer?
I also deliver impactful speaking engagements, where I delve into transformative topics like:
● Defining Your Lane: How to carve out your unique professional identity.
● The Power of Confidence: Unlocking success by investing in self-belief.
My story proves that success is achievable for anyone willing to invest in themselves, and I’m
here to guide others on that journey.

What’s New?

I’m thrilled to announce the upcoming expansion of my coaching resources! Soon, I’ll be
introducing a professional book series and exclusive tools designed to help medical
professionals amplify their confidence and competence. These new offerings will provide even
greater support for thriving in a fast-paced healthcare environment.
Whether you’re a patient seeking guidance or a medical professional aiming to excel, I’m here
to help you unlock your potential and thrive at every stage. Let’s transform lives—starting with
yours.

If you had to pick three qualities that are most important to develop, which three would you say matter most?

Looking back on my journey, here are (3) key qualities that have been pivotal to my growth and
success: discipline, self-reflection, and a growth mindset.

Discipline: Staying consistent and focused helped me tackle demanding workloads, long hours,
and challenges in the medical and mental health field.
Self-Reflection: Journaling and daily mantras have been transformative tools, fostering clarity,
intentionality, and alignment with my goals.
Growth Mindset: Seeing challenges as opportunities and embracing continuous learning has
fueled my resilience and progress.
For those starting out:

● Build discipline with routines and small, achievable steps.
● Reflect through journaling and affirmations to stay centered.
● Cultivate a growth mindset by welcoming setbacks as learning opportunities and
staying curious.

These skills aren’t innate—they’re cultivated. Master them to grow, succeed, and make a
meaningful impact.

Who has been most helpful in helping you overcome challenges or build and develop the essential skills, qualities or knowledge you needed to be successful?

Investing in your professional development is essential if you want to catapult your success. For
me, this meant taking a leap of faith and working with a brand coach—a decision that didn’t just
elevate my career but helped me overcome some of the toughest challenges I’ve faced along
the way.

When I started this journey, I struggled with clarity. I had a vision, but it felt scattered. I knew
what I wanted to achieve, but I didn’t know how to connect the dots or communicate my value in
a way that resonated. My coach Kimberly Clark stepped in and helped me untangle that web of
uncertainty. She listened deeply to my story, understood my goals, and guided me in crafting a
clear, powerful message that truly reflects who I am and the impact I want to make.
Another challenge was self-doubt. I’ve always been driven, but there were moments when I
questioned whether I was enough—whether my skills, story, or experience were enough to
inspire and lead others. My coach didn’t just tell me I was capable; she showed me how to
embrace my strengths and use my vulnerabilities as fuel for connection and growth. She
reminded me that every challenge I’ve faced has shaped the person I am today—and that’s
what makes my message powerful.

Time management and focus were also major hurdles. Balancing a demanding career while
building my brand felt overwhelming at times. My coach introduced structure into my chaos. She
helped me break down my goals into manageable steps, taught me how to prioritize effectively,
and held me accountable every step of the way. Her guidance kept me on track, even on the
days when motivation felt distant.
The most significant challenge, though, was fear—fear of stepping out, being seen, and risking
failure. Kimberly didn’t let me hide in my comfort zone. She gently but firmly pushed me to take
bold steps, lean into discomfort, and trust the process. Her belief in me became contagious, and
slowly, I started believing in myself again.

This is why I created Chatgram, a private 1:1 mentoring program designed for busy medical
professionals who need real-time support while balancing the demands of their careers.
Collaborating and partnering with a coach, professional, or business has so many advancement
opportunities, and I want to offer the same support and accountability to others that I’ve
experienced firsthand.

Here are (2) pivotal ways collaboration with my coach helped me level up:

1. Clarity and Strategy: I went from feeling stuck and unsure of my next steps to having a
clear, actionable roadmap that aligned with my goals. My coach helped me see the bigger
picture while giving me the tools to execute effectively.

2. Confidence and Accountability: Having someone in my corner who believed in me was
transformative. My coach not only encouraged me to push past my fears but also held me
accountable to the commitments I made to myself.

If you’re feeling stuck or unsure of how to move forward, know this: the right partnership can
help you turn challenges into opportunities, doubts into confidence, and hesitation into bold
action. Chatgram is my way of offering that same transformational experience to others in their
own journey. Let’s level up together!
