She opens up about the health scare that completely shifted how she sees her life, her work, and how she spends her energy.We also get into something I know so many of us struggle with — how to take something that feels personal, meaningful, even spiritual… and allow yourself to monetize it without guilt.And what I loved most is how grounded she is in her values.We talked about:what it means to actually live in your purposehow to build something that aligns with your life (not drains it)creating income outside of medicine in a way that feels goodand why community is so important when you’re building something newThis is one of those conversations that will make you pause a little… and think about how you’re living your life right now.If you’ve been feeling like there’s more for you outside of medicine — this episode is for you.Connect with Dr. Adeola Abisogun on:Instagram: @okayadeolaWebsite: e-toju.com and http://e-toju.com/venturesInstagram: @the.enamel.doctorWebsite: http://e-toju.com/oral-health-optimizationContact: http://e-toju.com/connectSend us Fan MailCheck out my website here: Kimberlybrownmd.comFollow me on Instagram: @drkimberlyb

Building Wealth Outside Medicine: Dr. Eva on Business, Motherhood & Real Estate
Whatsup doc! In today's episode, I’m joined by physician, entrepreneur, and creator Dr. Eva Beaulieu, and this conversation is such a powerful reminder that you can build a life that goes far beyond medicine. Dr. Eva shares her journey from following the traditional path of becoming a physician to stepping into entrepreneurship, building multiple streams of income, and creating a life that actually feels good to live.We talk about what it really looks like to balance motherhood, marriage, and business, especially when both partners are physicians navigating demanding careers. From building an urgent care business with her husband to eventually creating space for herself through social media, brand partnerships, and writing books — her journey is layered, honest, and deeply inspiring.But what I loved most about this conversation is the mindset shift.Dr. Eva opens up about the pressure physicians feel to stay in a box, and how she had to unlearn that in order to show up fully as herself. From social media to business to lifestyle design, she shares how authenticity became the thing that actually helped her grow.We also get into building wealth beyond the U.S., including her investment in real estate in Ghana and her long-term vision of creating a life outside of the traditional American system.And then we had a real moment around something I think so many of us don’t talk about enough: Figuring out what actually makes you happy.Because after all the degrees, the training, and the titles… you still have to answer the question: what kind of life do I actually want to live?If you’ve been feeling the pull to do more, explore more, or become more than what medicine has defined you as — this episode is for you.Connect with Dr. Eva Beaulieu on:Instagram: @dr.evab YouTube Channel: Dr. Eva BWebsite: drevabtoday.comSend us Fan MailCheck out my website here: Kimberlybrownmd.comFollow me on Instagram: @drkimberlyb

How Dr. Nkem Ezeamama Built a Multimillion-Dollar Real Estate Portfolio
Whatsup Doc!! In today's episode, I’m joined by ER physician and real estate investor Dr. Nkem Ezeamama, and whew… this conversation is powerful.Dr. Nkem shares how her journey into real estate started at a moment many doctors can relate to, realizing that medicine alone might not provide the security or freedom we thought it would. After watching private equity reshape emergency medicine and seeing colleagues suddenly lose their jobs, she started asking herself a life-changing question: What else is possible beyond clinical medicine?What began as a search for passive income turned into something much bigger. Dr. Nkem walks us through how she went from making her first real estate investment to building partnerships, raising capital, and ultimately growing a multimillion-dollar real estate portfolio while still practicing emergency medicine.But what I loved most about this conversation is that we didn’t just talk about real estate.We talked about the identity shift doctors have to make when stepping into entrepreneurship, breaking out of the mindset of being “just a physician,” overcoming fear around money and investing, and building the confidence to lead in rooms where you might be the only one who looks like you.Dr. Nkem also shares how she leveraged LinkedIn to build her network, connect with investors, and raise capital — turning a platform most doctors only use for job hunting into a powerful tool for building wealth and business opportunities.If you’ve ever wondered how doctors can create financial freedom outside traditional medicine, this episode will open your eyes to what’s possible.Because sometimes the first step toward building wealth as a physician isn’t having the perfect strategy, it’s giving yourself permission to believe that your career can look bigger than the path you were originally handed.Connect with Dr. Nkem Ezeamama on:LinkedIn: Nkem Ezeamama MDFacebook: Nkem EzeamamaInstagram: @drnkemezeamamaTiktok: @drnkemezeamamaX: Dr Nkem Ezeamama (@DrNkemEzeamama)Send us Fan MailCheck out my website here: Kimberlybrownmd.comFollow me on Instagram: @drkimberlyb

How to Work Less and Live Abroad as a Doctor with Dr. Kristine Goins
Hey Doc! Have you ever wondered what it would actually look like to practice medicine… but not live in the U.S.? Not vacation. Not take a sabbatical. Actually live abroad.In this episode, I’m sitting down with Dr. Kristine Goins, psychiatrist, founder of Nomads MD, and full-blown digital nomad physician who spends most of her year outside of the United States while still practicing medicine and building wealth. And this is not some “one day when I retire” story. This is real life.Kristine shares how burnout pushed her to rethink everything, how she used geo-arbitrage to maintain her U.S. income while lowering her cost of living, and how she built a time- and location-independent medical practice that allows her to work 20 hours a week (or less) while living in Colombia, Mexico, South Africa, France, and beyond.We talk about:• What finally made her leave a traditional academic role• How she replaced her income through telemedicine and consulting• What geo-arbitrage actually is (and why doctors should understand it)• How to digitize your medical expertise• Why financial freedom isn’t about quitting medicine, it’s about redefining your relationship to workIf you’ve ever felt the pull to live differently… slower… more intentionally… this episode is going to stretch your thinking in the best way. Because the question isn’t “Is this possible?”It’s “Are you willing to build it?”Connect with Dr. Kristine Goins on:Facebook: @thenomadmdInstagram: @thenomadmdsWebsite: thenomadmd.comSend us Fan MailCheck out my website here: Kimberlybrownmd.comFollow me on Instagram: @drkimberlyb

DGM #055: Celebrate Life: Healing Through Gratitude with Ms. Pat Martin
Hey Doc! This week’s episode is not your typical Docs Get Money conversation, but it might be the one you didn’t know you needed.While on one of my locums assignment, I had the absolute honor of meeting Ms. Pat Martin, a patient whose story stopped me in my tracks. Our conversation was one of those rare divine moments that stayed with me long after I left the hospital. We didn’t talk about business strategy or entrepreneurship. We talked about life. Gratitude. Pain. Beauty. Survival. And the kind of wealth you can’t count—but you can feel in your bones.Ms. Pat shares her journey through breast cancer, the evolution of her Celebrate Life Day tradition, and the hard-won wisdom that only decades of living can offer. We talked about how purpose can show up in unexpected places, and how being open to the moment—even the painful ones—can lead to profound healing.This is an episode about redefining what matters. About remembering who we are. About the internal power we all have to rebuild, reclaim, and rejoice—even when life doesn't go the way we planned.I hope this conversation blesses you the way it blessed me.

DGM #054: Not Another Burnout Story: How Dr. Nikia Smith Reclaimed Her Life Outside the OR
Hey Doc! Burnout doesn’t always hit like a freight train—it often creeps in quietly, disguising itself as “just a rough week” or “just part of the job.” In this episode, I sat down with Dr. Nikia Smith, an anesthesiologist and life coach who knows exactly what it feels like to be successful on paper and completely depleted behind the scenes. We talked about the version of burnout no one sees coming, what it looks like to start over while still in medicine, and how she found her way back to herself—through community, coaching, and choosing ease.Dr. Nikia is the kind of woman who gets it. She’s been in the OR during the worst of COVID, supervised by mid-levels, navigating the microaggressions and systemic mess that come with being a Black woman in medicine. But instead of letting it take her out, she used it as a launching pad.Now, she’s building group coaching spaces and retreats that center healing, softness, and connection—especially for high-achieving women who’ve forgotten what it feels like to want something for themselves.We talked about what it means to rest without guilt, how to trust your desires again, and why building a new way of working doesn’t always require a dramatic exit—just a different kind of courage.If you’ve ever said, “I’m tired, but I don’t have time to slow down,” this one’s for you.Follow Dr. Nikia Smith on Instagram: @sheisfireforgedSend Dr. Nikia Smith an email on: [email protected] us Fan MailCheck out my website here: Kimberlybrownmd.comFollow me on Instagram: @drkimberlyb

DGM #053: Changing the Cycle: Dr. Charis Chambers on Reproductive Truth & Showing Up Unapologetically

What if your purpose was never meant to look like anyone else’s?This week on the pod, I’m joined by the brilliant Dr. Charis Chambers a.k.a The Period Doctor, board-certified OB/GYN, pediatric and adolescent gynecologist, educator, and coach.We talk about her journey from Spelman to Baylor to becoming a national voice in women’s and adolescent health. But this conversation goes way beyond medicine. We get into what it means to show up authentically in a world that profits from your silence, how to build a personal brand rooted in joy instead of performance, and the power of making faith-led moves even when the path isn’t clear.Dr. Charis opens up about treating patients with gender dysphoria and disorders of sexual development, why representation in medicine isn’t just nice—it’s necessary—and how The Period Doctor was born from a deep desire to reclaim reproductive health education for Black girls and their families.We also talk about how she built her coaching practice ReclamationRx, the tension between monetizing your purpose and protecting your peace, and what it means to create impact and income without selling your soul.This episode is vulnerable, joy-filled, and full of truth.

Hey Doc!

In this conversation, we break down everything from IP and innovation to digital money and wealth building in communities of color.Professor Evans shares how she went from big law to blockchain, why Bitcoin isn’t a scam (even though it sounds like one), and what physicians and professionals need to understand now to stay financially relevant in a digital economy.

DGM #050: From Imposter Thoughts to Internal Shifts: Dr. Rasheeda Hall on Betting on Yourself
Hey Doc! This week on the pod, I got to sit down with Dr. Rasheeda Hall, an associate professor, nephrologist, and national research award winner who’s also the founder of Make Internal Shifts, a career coaching program for women of color in academic research. From building one of the few geriatric nephrology clinics in the world to leading multi-million dollar NIH-funded research initiatives, Dr. Hall is proof that you can be deeply academic, highly strategic, and boldly entrepreneurial—all at once.In this episode, we dive into the underrecognized emotional labor of academic research, why women physicians often minimize their achievements, and how coaching can completely transform the way you see yourself and your potential. Dr. Hall shares her journey into medicine, how she discovered coaching through a grant at Duke, and the moment she realized her lived experience was more than enough to start a business that changes lives.We also talk about the courage it takes to start something of your own, the mindset shifts required to step into visibility, and how entrepreneurship is teaching all of us to bet on ourselves in bigger ways. This is a conversation about impact, identity, and making space for your boldest dreams—even if you still work a 9 to 5.Visit Dr. Rasheeda Hall's Website here: makeinternalshifts.comFollow Dr. Rasheeda Hall on Instagram: @rasheedakhallFollow Dr. Rasheeda Hall on LinkedIn: Rasheeda HallSend us Fan MailCheck out my website here: Kimberlybrownmd.comFollow me on Instagram: @drkimberlyb

DGM #049: This Is Your Sign to Monetize What You Know: The IMG Roadmap with Dr. Nina Lum
She was just writing to process her journey—blogging through the culture shock, the IMG grind, the snow, the running water, all of it. But what started as therapy turned into a movement.Hey Doc! This week, I’m joined by my friend and co-author Dr. Nina Lum, the powerhouse behind The IMG Roadmap to talk about what it really looks like to build something meaningful from scratch, while still working as a full-time physician. What began as a humble blog on Blogspot (yes, throwback vibes) has grown into a six-figure business helping international medical graduates get matched, get confident, and get paid. Nina opens up about the quiet beginnings of The IMG Roadmap, how she went from creating low-cost courses to leading a high-impact business, and the inner work it took to own her worth as both a doctor and entrepreneur.We talked about the tension that comes with monetizing your story, the mindset shifts that helped her charge what her expertise was worth, and the spiritual downloads that have guided her every step of the way. Nina doesn’t just run a business—she runs it with integrity. She’s built The IMG Roadmap on purpose, not pressure, and her story is full of wisdom for every doctor who’s ever asked, “Is it okay for me to get paid for what I know?”This episode is a masterclass in walking by faith, leading with value, and letting go of the guilt so many of us carry around money. It’s also a reminder that your story, your knowledge, and your lived experience are worthy of being paid for—period.Visit Dr. Nina Lum's Website here: drninalum.comFollow Dr. Nina Lum on Instagram: @drninalumFollow The IMG Roadmap on Instagram: @imgroadmapListen to Dr. Nina Lum’s podcast here: The IMG Roadmap PodcastSend us Fan MailCheck out my website here: Kimberlybrownmd.comFollow me on Instagram: @drkimberlyb

From growing up in Nigeria with 31 siblings, to surviving the loneliness of immigration, to experiencing a heart attack that changed everything—Dr. Kome shares the raw truth about what it took to rebuild her life, her marriage, and her sense of self.We talk about the toxic "strong Black woman" narrative, the burnout that comes from carrying your relationship, and how Kome shifted from over-functioning to thriving in her feminine power. She breaks down how she went from begging for connection to becoming the kind of woman who magnetizes love, softness, and support—without losing her voice or her ambition.This episode is for every high-achieving woman who’s been told she has to choose between success and softness. Kome is proof you can have both, and it starts with choosing you first.

DGM #046: IGNITE: The Year Everything Fell Apart… and Then Fell Into Place
It’s been a wild ride, y’all. I’m recording this just two days before I head out on maternity leave, and I couldn’t leave without taking a moment to reflect on the journey IGNITE has taken me on over the past year. What started with tears in my bathtub turned into a full-blown, revenue-generating, confidence-building, client-transforming business process. In this solo episode, I’m walking you through the real behind-the-scenes — the wins, the flops, the tears, the courage, and the evolution of my signature process, IGNITE.I’m taking you back to January 2024 when I was questioning everything, watching clients walk away, wondering if I had what it took to keep going. Spoiler: I did. But not without burning things down, rebuilding, trusting my vision, and leaning hard on the power of perseverance. From my first beta test to helping clients sign their first (and multiple) high-ticket clients, IGNITE has grown alongside me — and now, it’s ready to grow with even more of you.If you've ever found yourself in that messy middle, where the vision is clear but nothing seems to be working, this episode is for you. I want you to hear the full story: the breakdowns, the breakthroughs, and the belief that got me here. Because success doesn’t always look like a highlight reel. Sometimes it looks like starting over in a candlelit bathtub with nothing but a journal and a dream.Send us Fan MailCheck out my website here: Kimberlybrownmd.comFollow me on Instagram: @drkimberlyb

DGM #045: From Dumpster Fire to Doctor-Led Healing: A New Script for Women in Medicine with The Whole Physician
Hey Doc! Let’s be honest, medicine can be a dumpster fire. And I say that with all the love and respect in the world for our profession. But if you’ve ever cried in the hospital stairwell, questioned everything you worked so hard for, or wondered, “Is this really what I signed up for?”—this episode is for you.This week on The Docs Get Money Podcast, I’m joined by not one, not two, but THREE phenomenal women—Drs. Kendra Morrison, Laura Cazier, and Amanda Dinsmore, collectively known as The Whole Physician. They’re board-certified emergency medicine docs who hit their breaking points, burned all the way out, and then did something wild… they healed. Not just for themselves—but for the entire house of medicine.Together, we unpack what it really looks like to walk away when everything in your life is telling you to stay. We talk about the gut-wrenching decision to quit medicine without a plan, the unexpected beauty of starting over, and the power of saying “enough” before your body forces you to.But we didn’t stop there. We talked about entrepreneurship, coaching, and how redefining your identity can unlock a life that actually feels like yours. We dive deep into why therapy and coaching can coexist, how perfectionism shows up in our white coats, and why writing a new script for our lives is the most radical, life-giving thing we can do.Sis, if you’ve ever felt like you were suffering in silence, like you couldn’t tell anyone how much this career is costing you emotionally, physically, or mentally—please know you are not alone. The Whole Physician has been there. I’ve been there. But there’s a way forward that doesn’t involve sacrificing yourself to succeed.This episode is full of truth bombs, belly laughs, tender moments, and real talk about what healing and wholeness can look like in a system that was never built for us.

Hey Doc! Let’s talk about something real—something every entrepreneur, coach, and doctor-turned-business-owner has faced at some point: discouragement. You start your business with big dreams, fire in your belly, and a plan to change the game… and then life happens. The clients don’t roll in as fast as you thought. The people who hyped you up in the beginning? Suddenly real quiet.

Because, listen, discouragement is part of the game, but quitting doesn’t have to be.I'm breaking down what to do when your business isn’t moving as fast as you want, how to handle the doubts that creep in late at night, and the mindset shifts that separate the people who make it from the ones who give up too soon. I'm also keeping it real about my own struggles with discouragement and what I've learned from years of coaching doctors into successful, profitable businesses.So if you’re in a season of “Why isn’t this working yet?!” or feeling like you’re running out of steam, press play.

DGM #043: Intuition, Tarot & The Power of Letting Go: RaDonna Reed on Why You Already Know Your Next Move
Hey Doc! Have you ever felt that deep knowing—that undeniable pull in your gut telling you it’s time to make a move—but fear keeps you stuck in the same place? You tell yourself you need more time, more certainty, more proof that it’ll work out before you take action. But here’s the truth: waiting for clarity is keeping you broke, stuck, and exhausted.In this episode, I’m joined by RaDonna Reed, my personal life coach and the founder of Inspo Studio, where she helps women reconnect with themselves, trust their intuition, and step into their power using tarot, coaching, and deep self-reflection. We had a real, raw, and necessary conversation about the ways high-achieving women—especially doctors—get trapped in the cycle of perfectionism and overworking, ignoring that quiet voice inside them that already knows the next move. RaDonna shares how she walked away from a business that no longer served her, the role tarot played in helping her trust herself, and why so many of us struggle to let go of control and surrender to the bigger vision that’s waiting for us.If you’ve ever felt stuck, burnt out, or like you’re forcing your way through life instead of flowing with what’s meant for you, this episode is the sign you’ve been waiting for. Your next level isn’t something you chase—it’s something you allow.Follow RaDonna on Instagram: @yourtarotbffVisit RaDonna’s Website here: inspostudio.coVisit RaDonna’s Website here: radonnareed.comSend us Fan MailCheck out my website here: Kimberlybrownmd.comFollow me on Instagram: @drkimberlyb
