Feeling anxious about where your career's headed? You're definitely not alone. We surveyed over 8,000 high-income professionals and asked what's keeping them up at night about their profession in 2025. The answers were eye-opening — but also pretty relatable. We're covering the top 10 fears that come up again and again. If you're a doctor, dentist, lawyer, or another high-earning professional, chances are you'll see yourself in at least a few of these concerns.

Key moments:

(01:26) Rising education costs and massive debt loads are crushing high-income professionals

(09:15) Rural practice bring in more money due to high competition in urban areas

(20:06) Compassion fatigue is burning out professionals at alarming rate

(24:59) Clients may not value a professional's expertise when free AI seems "good enough"
