Ep23: The Secrets of Essentialism for Physicians with Dr. Kristine Goins, The Nomad MD

Dr. Goins found freedom through travel by embracing her passion for exploring healing approaches outside of conventional medicine and combining it with her love for traveling. Her journey from traditional medical practice to becoming a digital nomad reflects her desire to break free from the constraints of traditional medicine and immerse herself in a nomadic lifestyle. Dr. Goins initially started her journey to become a doctor at a young age, like many others in the medical field. However, she also had a strong passion for traveling, which she picked up as a teenager through books. Although she couldn't afford to travel at the time, she traveled extensively in her imagination through the stories she read. As she pursued medicine and prepared for medical school, Dr. Goins faced conflict within herself. She felt that medicine required all of her time, energy, and resources, leaving little room for her other passion for traveling. She even expressed her concerns to her mother, worried that she wouldn't have the opportunity to live the life she had envisioned for herself. This is a lovely conversation. We hope you enjoy.
