Start a Side Business Not a Side Hustle

I was on the search for something. 

A group for guys where you could develop friendships, learn from one another, help each other. 

A group where people could share their dreams and put actual action behind them. 

A group where experts from all sorts of fields came together to educate and learn from one another. 

And most importantly, a replacement of traditional networking, where true friendships were made. 

Oh yeah, and by the way the group wasn't stuffy, it was filled with fun and social events. 

There was one little problem in my search though....I couldn't find it.

So, I decided to build it.  

If this sounds like what you have been missing, we invite you to apply on my profile, it will be a decision you'll never forget.

Effectively lead a diverse team of 130+ associates and 100+ volunteers in leading a $2.8M operation. 
•	Led the Tampa market in sales in 2019 and improved sales by 15% YTD.
•	Fundraising of $300K cumulatively and highest fundraising year in 2021. 
•	Increased revenue by 10% in 2019 and improved net margin position by 8% YTD.

When my 3 year old called me out after a long day at work, “We ate without you because you came home late … again,” my world crumbled.

I started wondering if it was worth missing out on my kids’ lives in order to have a good job, squeezing out every extra dollar of income to “enjoy” our lives.

If I was honest, I wasn’t enjoying my life - I felt like all I was doing was working and paying bills.

Yes, my kids had nice sneakers, but it hardly seemed worth it.

I was riddled with mom and wife guilt.

Yet, I kept pushing through because I felt pressure to live up to my privilege as a doctor and also fulfill my greatest earning potential because I was the sole breadwinner.

That comment from my 3 year old made it clear that I wasn’t the only one suffering - it was all of us and it was time to change.

I felt like I was playing small, living at 5% which meant I was failing and I started to feel resentful.

That comment made me take a step back and do the math on what living at 100% could look like.

I knew I could have it all if I chose it. 

Experiences as a family. 

A great relationship with my husband.

Time with my kids so they knew they were seen, heard, and loved.

A career that allowed me to serve my patients and community.

And… time to take care of myself.

It was clear, living at 5% didn’t meet my expectations of this lifetime. 

I had created this 5% life and I was ready to make different choices to create my 100% life.

I set boundaries with my schedule at work, my husband, my kids, and myself to carve out time and effort for each so that each part felt at 100%.

I forgave myself for my previous choices that put me at 5% and leveraged the lessons to make better choices into my future.

I gave myself space to live for myself - putting my oxygen mask on first so that I wasn’t desperately gasping at the end of the day, being no good to anyone, especially myself.

It took intention, hard conversations, and digging deep into figuring out what I really wanted from this life, and it was worth it.

From discussions with fellow female healthcare colleagues, I know that my situation was common.

What isn’t common is doing something about it. 

If you are ready to live a 100% life by your standard, let’s hop on a call:
