About This Episode
You’re a smart, qualified — probably overqualified — doctor.
So why do you still feel stuck in industry, underpaid, undervalued, and unsure of your next move?

In this episode, Dr. Abeyna Bubbers-Jones, Occupational Health Consultant and founder of Medic Footprints, unpacks why so many brilliant doctors stay financially stuck — even after doing everything "right."
Abeyna speaks directly to doctors who:

Have tried applying for dozens of jobs with no response
Have done the MBA, the courses, the unpaid work
Are trying to build a consulting or coaching offer… but it’s not making money
Feel like they’ve hit a ceiling and have no roadmap forward

What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

The 3 real reasons smart doctors stay poor:
1. No roadmap
2. No network
3. Weak positioning
Why doing more courses or an MBA won’t fix the real issue
How one doctor landed a £10k HealthTech contract without applying for a single job
Why 85% of the best roles aren’t advertised — and how to access them
The true cost of waiting another year (or two) before making a move

This is for you if...

You’re stuck in a low-value role or industry position
You’ve been winging it and hoping something will land
You want more income, more freedom — and a clear, smart plan to get there
