Find what lights your fire & pave a path that gradually incorporates it in. Even physicians can do things on the side, in the world of today, that helps them achieve better career satisfaction.
It all started out with a stint away from clinical medicine, when I gave birth to my third son. I discovered there was an entire new world out there, that I had never had time to explore. Before I knew it, I was learning how to cook, design, entertain, and even build online. Before I knew it, I was expressing myself in my very own blog.
Was it scary? Absolutely. It was terrifying. But that’s how I got my start. And the rest.. is history.
