244 Agency Over Your Paycheck

Join in as Kemi opens an honest conversation about money, career satisfaction, and the quiet frustration many women of color experience in academic medicine and public health. She reflects on what it feels like to be years into a career, deeply skilled, highly trained, and committed to the work, while still questioning how much control you really have over your financial life. Kemi also shares how her own path into public speaking and coaching began with a desire for more flexibility, more options, and more say over what her work could make possible.  This episode is for the woman who still values her work, but has started wondering whether the current structure gives her enough room to build the life, stability, and freedom she wants. Tune in for a candid conversation about career, compensation, and the questions many women are thinking but have not always had space to say out loud.  Order Dr. Kemi’s Book: A Terrible Strength: The Hidden Crisis of the Black Womb and Your Survival Guide to Healing   If you'd like to learn more foundational career navigation concepts for women of color in academic medicine and public health, sign up for our KD Coaching Foundations Series: www.kemidoll.com/foundations. Text Dr. Kemi directly.
