This week on Be Empowered, we tackle a topic that hits close to home for so many in healthcare—why doctors are often bad with money.

Despite years of education and training, most physicians enter the workforce financially unprepared. We’re taught to master complex diseases, not personal finance. From delayed earnings and massive student debt to lifestyle inflation and lack of business training, we unpack the systemic and cultural reasons doctors struggle to build—and keep—wealth.

In this episode, we explore:
💰 How medical training sets physicians up for financial vulnerability
📉 The emotional and cultural barriers to financial literacy
💡 Steps to reclaim control, build financial confidence, and change the narrative

Because being empowered in medicine isn’t just about clinical decisions—it’s about financial independence, freedom, and sustainability.

This week on Be Empowered, we sit down with Dr. Leah Houston, board-certified emergency physician and founder of Evercred (https://www.evercred.com/), a platform transforming how healthcare professionals manage their credentials and identity.

Her own shocking experience with medical identity theft became the catalyst for change.

In Part 1, we discuss:
⚕️ The credentialing crisis and its impact on patient care
🚨 How inefficiency fuels burnout and system-wide waste
🧩 The moment that pushed Dr. Houston to build a solution
