Meet Hayley
Hayley Harlock is the founder of The Flipside Life (TFSL) and a champion of physician families. She is married to a vascular surgeon and a mom to three school-aged children. Hayley holds a Master of Social Work degree from Wilfrid Laurier University, and previously practiced at SickKids Hospital in Toronto.
After personally experiencing the gap in support available for physician families, Hayley founded The Flipside Life in 2019. Hayley's personal and professional experience, coupled with her natural ability to connect with others and her determination to improve the experience of all physician families, uniquely position her to lead the TFSL community.
The Flipside Life community has grown exponentially since 2019, connecting physician spouses from all over Canada, the USA and beyond. When not working directly with the community, as a leader in physician family wellness, Hayley continues to raise awareness and lead important conversations with stakeholders and other community partners. Hayley has made appearances on numerous podcasts, local and national media, and her work has been published by the Canadian Medical Association and Physician Family Magazine.
Hayley is an Assistant Clinical Professor (Adjunct) in the Department of Psychiatry & Behavioural Neurosciences at McMaster University.
