Episode 53: Protecting Black Women Series: Turning Our Purpose Into Profit

In Episode 53, I talk about navigating some of the financial challenges that have been brought about by the coronavirus pandemic and how we can pivot given the significantly altered job market for physicians that has lead to the reduction of both starting salaries and practice options for doctors.

According to an annual report tracking physician-recruiting trends, physician-practice revenue has declined by an average of 55%, since patients have been either unable or unwilling to seek medical treatment. As a result, fewer physician practices and hospitals are seeking physicians as they struggle with lower revenues and a focus on treating COVID-19 patients. Like generations of Black women before us, instead of waiting for a seat at the table, we need to build our own tables but that is easier said than done. 

Join me in this week's episode as I break down five key strategies that you can implement right now to uncover a passion that is profitable and start to take action in moving it to reality.
