What if the thing standing between you and the business you really want isn’t your circumstances?
What if it’s the conclusion you’ve drawn from them?
In this episode of the EntreMD Podcast, I’m joined for the third time by Dr. Cheruba Prabakar, board-certified OB/GYN, fellowship-trained minimally invasive gynecologic surgeon, private practice owner, author, and “The Fibroid Doc.”
And this conversation is not theory.
Dr. Prabakar shares the story behind her work with women suffering from fibroids, including the deeply personal connection she discovered between the patients she serves today and watching her own mother suffer from fibroids decades ago.
But we also talk about something every physician entrepreneur needs to hear:
The moment when the dream feels impossible.
In this conversation, we talk about fear, entrepreneurship, building a profitable business around meaningful work, creating impact through medicine, and refusing to put a lid on what you can build simply because you haven’t seen it done before.
You don’t need to eliminate fear before you move.
You need to stop allowing fear to make your decisions.
Listen to this episode, identify the dream you may have talked yourself out of, and ask yourself one powerful question:
What if I could?
Then take the next step.
