Today, I’m joined by Dr. Ryan Mallory, a cardiologist who found a way to regain control over his career and life. After battling burnout and struggling with long hours, he made a bold decision to change the course of his professional life.

Ryan and his wife sought a better way to balance work and family, which led him to the world of locums and short-term rentals (STRs). These avenues not only allowed him to increase his income, but they also gave him the freedom to be present with his family, significantly reduce his work hours, and unlock opportunities to grow wealth outside of traditional medicine.

We explore the practicalities of making such a transition, including the financial benefits of locums and how investing in STRs can help you minimize taxes while increasing income. Ryan also shares actionable steps and insights that will help you design a life with more time and financial freedom. If you’re ready to take control of your career and life, hit play now!

Craig also breaks down his effortless discipline system, showing you how to reprogram your habits without relying on willpower. So, if you’ve ever felt like you’re doing “all the right things” but still aren’t seeing the results you want, this episode is for you. Tune in now for the strategies you need to make real, lasting changes.
