    Making Medicine Work For YOU (Not The Other Way Around) - 2 Examples To Follow

    You’re going to die after listening to this. That’s a hard truth, but most of us don’t act that way. In this podcast, we talk to a couple of doctors that did. And in doing so, found a way to align their passions with their paychecks. They found a way to love what they do. So listen in as we talk to Doctors Jordan Grumet and Andy Berkowski whose brushes with death gave them the courage to take real action towards finding true fulfillment in their work. Dr. Jordan Grummet was a hospice doctor when he realized too many people waited until it was too late to live the life they truly wanted to live. This set him on a path to live his own life that way. He got his finances in order, reduced his workload for anything that didn’t fill his bucket, started leaning into things he was passionate about, and eventually became a full-time author, podcaster, and speaker with a side of medicine, not the other way around. Dr. Andy Berkowski was a sleep doctor working in a research facility when he had a brush with death himself, facing a serious cancer diagnosis. He too got his finances in order and took different opportunities in research until he figured out that starting a direct care practice was the thing that would bring him the most joy and create the most impact. You’ll see some recurring themes in these stories once they gain clarity-Getting their finances in orderTaking iterative steps toward their passions Finally, understanding they could make their medical careers be the thing that supports their passion, not the other way around. We hope by listening to this, we help you gain the clarity that proximity to death gave them. But don’t forget, you have limited time to act…. Enjoy! Transform your financial outlook today!

    Feeling Trapped? 3 Steps To Break The Golden Handcuffs Or Your Hospital Salary

    In speaking to hundreds of doctors a month, it's obvious that many feel trapped by their hospital salary, and that can lead to burnout, but it doesn't need to be this way!That's why we went back into our past episodes to give you 3 examples of physicians like you who have broken free of the golden handcuffs put on them by hospitals. You'll see that they each had 3 commonalities: There was an "AHA!" moment when their priorities shifted. For these 3 physicians, it coincided with the birth of a child (not always the first), but for you, it's important to validate that it's ok when your priorities shift. Needing to take action became apparent thanks to a 3rd party diagnosis. As a doctor, everyone counts on you to diagnose things for them, and it's ok to need that too. Whether it's a mentor, a good friend, a coach, or a financial advisor, find people who can give you perspective outside yourself. No one got there with one step, but they all got started. You'll see each of these physicians took multiple steps that eventually got them the freedom they desired. What is most important was that they got started. You'll hear from Dr. Mamta Kumar, Dr. Param Baladandapani, and Dr. Ronnie Shalev in this episode with a brief intro from Daniel in each one. Transform your financial outlook today!
