Just because you leave an adolescent age (and enter medical school... and become a doctor... then become a psychiatrist), doesn't mean adolescence leaves you. Or so I've lived and understood, only now, at 35 years old.
Better late than never.

A 35-Year-Old Completes Adolescence

A weekly treatise on committing to one’s heart instead of hiding inside a career of acclaim, acceptance, and complacency. 

In 2022 at 33 years old, I left my career as a doctor, where I could earn $400,000 per year. I owed $200,000 in student loans. I quit because that life was killing me. And it wasn’t medicine’s fault. I have plenty of friends who love medicine, who love taking care of patients. It was my fault; I never wanted to be a doctor. I needed to find out what I wanted. My life was on the line. 

Since, I’ve started a furniture company. That was a surprising plot twist. And I write. Every Thursday, I pen an essay aimed at sharing what it took (and what it takes) to own a life I love, and share the audio version here.
