Lessons of a Practicing ER Doctor and $100K+ CEO x 2

Aug 21

There’s no roadmap for what we’re doing.

Building a business while still practicing medicine isn’t easy—and let’s be honest, most of us weren’t taught how to make money outside of our clinical skills. But that doesn’t mean it’s not possible. It just means we have to make the map as we go.

In this episode of The Docs Get Money Podcast, I’m reflecting on some of the biggest lessons I’ve learned as a practicing ER doc and the CEO of two six-figure businesses. This was originally a live conversation on Instagram, but it was too real not to share with you here.

Because if you’ve ever questioned whether you’re cut out for this—this life, this level of freedom, this kind of entrepreneurship—I need you to know: you are.

These Lessons Were Earned

This episode isn’t a highlight reel. It’s a behind-the-scenes look at what it really took for me to grow my coaching and midterm rental businesses while still working shifts in the ER.

I talk about:

The seasons where I was stretched too thin
The times I tried to DIY everything
And the moments where self-doubt crept in and made me want to give up

But I also share how I built support, learned to trust myself, and embraced a version of success that actually felt good.

Because this is the stuff that most people don’t talk about—but it’s the part that matters.

What You’ll Learn From This Episode

This one is for the high-achievers, the overthinkers, and the doctors who are ready to create success on their own terms.

I’m sharing:

How I went from surviving shift to shift to building two thriving businesses
Why deadlines, decisions, and imperfect action changed the game
The truth about mindset, identity, and how much they matter in business
What I actually needed to grow (hint: it wasn’t another certification)

If you’ve been hustling hard but still feel stuck in the same cycle, this episode is your reminder that success doesn’t have to come with suffering. There’s another way—and I want you to have it.
