Episode Details

Do you ever worry that leaving medicine means “throwing everything away that you worked so hard for?” Do you feel a lot of pressure from your culture or your family to continue down the path of medicine, even though it doesn’t feel right for you anymore?

This is exactly the dilemma our guest Dr. Toni Liu, struggled with during her medical career. Toni is a family physician, self-love and relationship coach, and digital nomad who shares with us her story of leaving clinical medicine as an Asian American. During this episode you will learn:

• How the expectations of Asian culture have impacted Toni’s career decisions and how she started living for herself despite the backlash.
• How Toni has reclaimed the word laziness to actually be a GOOD thing.
• The importance of following your creativity and accepting yourself on your journey to career fulfillment.

And so much more. This conversation is a highly empowering and heart-centered one, that I know you’ll be thinking about for days and weeks to come. I can’t wait for you to tune in.
