About This Episode
If you’ve ever told yourself, “Maybe I need to do that MBA first…”
 Or “Once I’ve done that course, then I’ll be ready…”
 This episode is for you.
 
In this truth-telling solo, Dr. Abeyna Bubbers-Jones breaks down why so many brilliant doctors get stuck in the “just one more qualification” trap  and how it’s costing them time, energy, and income.
Abeyna shares real stories of doctors who:
 

Spent £20k+ on an MBA and still couldn’t get interviews
Delayed career moves for nine years, waiting to feel “ready”
Built profitable consulting offers without doing another course
Finally learned how to package their existing value and get paid




 What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

Why more courses ≠ more credibility or income in industry
The uncomfortable truth: qualifications don’t teach you how to get clients, market yourself, or make money
How the industry actually rewards clarity, confidence, and strategic action
Why “learning” feels safer than “doing”  and how to break that cycle
What it really means to stop collecting certificates and start getting results

 
This is for you if...

You’re addicted to courses but still feel lost
You keep delaying action until “the time is right”
You want to finally take ownership of your career and income  on your terms
