About This Episode

Most doctors don’t stay stuck because of lack of time or money.

They stay stuck because of fear.

Fear of failure.

Fear of being judged.

Fear of being visible.

Fear of success and the pressure that comes with it.

In this honest, firecracker episode, Dr. Abeyna Bubbers-Jones breaks down the real emotional blocks that hold brilliant doctors back from taking bold, strategic action and what to do about it.

What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

The 5 most common fears keeping doctors playing small

Why learning more is often just a smart-looking way to delay

How perfectionism and overthinking are keeping you broke

Why waiting for “the right time” is costing you income, energy, and opportunities

What actually happens when you move before you feel ready

Real Stories You’ll Hear:

A doctor who waited 9 years to make a move and what it cost her

A Fellow who didn’t feel “ready” but landed her first £5k client within 6 weeks

Abeyna’s own behind-the-scenes story of fear, burnout, delayed action and how she broke through it

This is for you if...

You’re telling yourself “maybe later”

You know you want something more, but you’re afraid to take the first step

You’ve done all the planning, learning, and thinking but no action

You’re ready to face the fear, and move anyway
