Joshua and I have been talking about student loan

Joshua and I have been talking about student loan debt a lot lately! We want to have a clear plan in place so that we can let go of any stress associated with student loans.

@citizensbank offers refinancing specifically designed for medical residents to help us manage our student loan debt before moving into our professional careers. It’s super simple - just take 2 minutes get your rate and pay only $100 per month* (link in bio) while in residency and/or fellowship.

You can make things even more simple by combining loans from multiple lenders. The less we have to worry about on a daily basis the better, right?!

You can learn more about Citizens Medical Residency Refinance Loan™ through the link in my bio!

I mean I def don’t regret the fun I had but also

I mean I def don’t regret the fun I had but also, never again will I cliff jump from 50+ feet 😬

All of the trending “5 things I wouldn’t do as a [insert medical specialty]” videos got me thinking… I have like 5000 things on that list 😂

My UPS & DOWNS through this journey in medicine 🫶🏼

Yep, took the MCAT twice. A lot of people do and it doesn’t mean you’re not good enough! The premed pressure to be perfect was heavy - my premed counselor doubted me and people who I thought were my friends put me down. But I got in to med school and put all that behind me.

Failed my first exam in med school 🤦🏽‍♀️ that rocked my world, and I felt like an imposter. But I picked myself up, passed that class, and got through the didactic years. Thank goodness I thrived in the clinical years!

I can also add in that I went to med school to become an OBGYN but then didn’t like my rotation and had a mid-med school crisis thinking I shouldn’t have gone to med school bc I didn’t like what I came for. But I found PM&R in that moment bc I was LOOKING for something I loved!

Joshua was one year ahead of me in med school, so he applied to and matched to residency a year before me. For this reason we could not couples match, but we knew we would make it work no matter what. Now he is done with residency and we are finally able to live together! 🥰

What’s your story?

If I’m stopping at a gas station late in the eve

If I’m stopping at a gas station late in the evening, especially after a long shift at work, these are the things I do to stay safe:

⛽️ Choose a well-lit spot that is visible to passing traffic or people inside the store.
⛽️ Carry my @taserselfdefense Bolt 2 - it clips easily on to my waist!
⛽️ Check my surroundings
⛽️ Close my windows and lock my doors
⛽️ Stay off my phone and remain aware of my surroundings

What other tips do you have? Do you carry a safety device?
