Becoming a physician assistant (PA) is difficult. But becoming a PA on the way to financial independence (FI) shouldn’t be. Allow the PA the FI Way podcast to be your guide to becoming a physician assistant on the way to financial independence. Unfortunately, even basic personal finance and budget concepts are rarely taught in high school, college or PA school. Then once PA students become certified physician assistants and begin their professional journey practicing medicine, they typically have a heap of student loans just waiting to be paid back. Let’s not only discuss how to prevent large student loan amounts, but also how to pay them back quickly. Let’s discuss how practicing PAs can learn to save and invest for their futures. PA the FI Way’s mission is to provide both future and current PAs alike strategies to not only become financially literate, but to also reach financial independence along the way. Think of it as personal finance for PAs with a financial independence twist. Financial independence provides the freedom to find balance in work and personal life. FI is about creating the life you want to live, choosing when to retire (IF you want to retire early), choosing when to cut back on working, or choosing when to work on another passion in your life. The decision truly is yours, and I hope you decide to join me on the journey to becoming a PA the FI Way.© 2025 @2021 PA the FI Way 個人ファイナンス 出世 就職活動 経済学

    In this episode, I sit down with seasoned realtor and real estate investor Joel Anderson of Counselor Realty to break down everything busy healthcare providers need to know about buying, selling, renovating, and investing with confidence. We cover how to choose the right realtor for you, how to know if you’re ready to buy versus rent, and how much house you should actually purchase based on your financial and lifestyle goals. Joel shares common buyer and seller mistakes, the hidden fees and upfront costs that surprise people, and which cosmetic updates actually boost a home’s value.

    We also talk through smart selling strategies, whether staging is worth it, and how to price your home without leaving money on the table. To wrap up, Joel shares about his real estate investing journey and covers what may be realistic for clinicians navigating unpredictable schedules and long hours.

    If you’re looking to buy or sell in the next year, or just want to make smarter housing decisions on your financial independence journey, this episode will give you the clarity and confidence you need.

  • 168 | The Power of Yet: How One Word Can Change Everything
    2025/11/14
    In this episode, I break down one of the simplest but most transformative concepts in personal development: The Power of Yet. Inspired by Dr. Carol Dweck’s research on growth mindset, “yet” is the tiny word that shifts you from feeling stuck to seeing possibility. Whether you’re struggling with money, burnout, confidence, career direction, or new skills, adding “yet” rewires your brain to believe you’re capable of change- because you are. You’re not good at budgeting... yet. You don’t feel confident at work... yet. You’re not financially independent... yet. You don’t have work–life boundaries... yet. Not “no.” Not “never.” Just not yet. This episode gives practical examples, stories, and tools to help you adopt the “yet” mindset so you can grow in any area of your life. What is covered in this episode: • What the “Power of Yet” actually means A simple mindset shift backed by decades of psychology and neuroscience. • A quick overview of Dr. Carol Dweck’s research How growth mindset vs. fixed mindset impacts confidence, learning, resilience, and even burnout. • How “yet” reframes failure Turning mistakes into information, not identity. • Real-life examples of “yet” in action Money, relationships, boundaries, investing, career development, and personal habits. • Why 'yet' is crucial for financial independence If you don’t believe you can learn to budget, invest, or build wealth… you won’t. • The neuroscience behind “yet” Why this tiny word activates motivation pathways instead of threat pathways in the brain. • How the Power of Yet protects against burnout When you see yourself as someone who can grow, setbacks feel temporary- not personal. • Easy ways to integrate the “yet” mindset into daily life Microhabits, affirmations, self-reflection prompts, and language shifts. By the end of this episode, you will learn: How to spot fixed-mindset thoughts How to rewrite them using “yet” statements How to create microhabits that support growth How to build confidence through incremental wins How “yet” can change the trajectory of your financial life How to use this mindset shift to reduce burnout and self-doubt How to apply “yet” in relationships, career, money, and personal goals Resources Mentioned: Wealthfront HYSA referral link: https://www.wealthfront.com/c/affiliates/invited/AFFA-NGE2-ZDDZ-K8BK Dr. Carol Dweck’s TED Talk – “The Power of Yet” If this episode was helpful, subscribe to the PA the FI Way podcast or YouTube channel for more content to help you build financial independence and prevent burnout along the way.

  • 167 | Decluttering Your Way to Freedom: How to Simplify, Downsize, and Keep What Truly Matters
    2025/10/31

    In this episode, I’m sharing what I’ve been learning firsthand as I declutter and prepare for the upcoming sale of our house, and how this process has completely reshaped the way I think about freedom, finances, and fulfillment. I’ve realized how much the things we own can quietly drain our time, energy, and even money.

    I’ll cover some helpful decluttering principles that my husband and I have recently implemented as we gradually move toward a more minimalistic lifestyle, including the 20/20 rule, the 90/90 rule, and how to break free from the sunk cost fallacy, along with a few mindset shifts that have helped us let go with intention.

    You’ll learn why simplifying your space is so powerful for both your peace and your financial independence journey. If you’ve been feeling weighed down by too much “stuff” or craving a simpler, lighter life, this episode will inspire you to start creating more room for what truly matters.

    If this episode was helpful, be sure to subscribe to the PA the FI Way podcast or YouTube channel for more content to help you build financial independence and prevent burnout along the way.
