Dr. Latifat is the author of the Amazon bestselling books Done With Broke: The Woman Physician’s Guide to More Money and Less Hustle and The Power to Choose: The Woman Physician’s Guide to Financial Liberation and Life on Your Terms. She is also the founder of MoneyFitMD, a financial empowerment platform designed to help women physicians achieve financial independence without sacrificing their well-being.

In this episode, she shares how to create an emergency fund that truly fits you—your current season, your lifestyle, and your goals. She explains why one-size-fits-all advice doesn’t work, how to decide what’s “enough,” and how to make sure your savings strategy aligns with your vision for life and work.


Key Takeaways:

  1. Match your fund to your goals and current season.
  2. Avoid one-size-fits-all advice.
  3. Save with clarity, not guilt.
