Episode 120: You Don’t Have to Choose Between Mission and Money

Do you ever feel guilty for taking a vacation? I just got back from a trip, and even though I felt refreshed, I still found myself rushing to catch up. That guilt? It runs deep. In this episode, I’m talking about what it really means to rest, the pressure to always be available, and why your career shouldn’t feel like something you have to escape from.

I’m also challenging the belief that you have to choose between mission and money. That if you’re passionate about the work, you shouldn’t expect to be paid well. If you’ve ever been told you’re “doing it for the right reasons,” but the pay doesn’t reflect your value, this one’s for you.

We’ll talk about:

• The toxic belief that being mission-driven means sacrificing financial security.

• Why vacation can’t be the only place you feel rested, and how to change that.

• How organizations try to underpay doctors in the name of “passion.”

• The hidden costs of burnout when you’re undercompensated, overworked, and under-supported.

  
  

You can do meaningful work and still demand meaningful compensation. You don’t have to stay in a career that drains you just to serve others.
