How many income streams do you have? How many income streams do you think you should have? In this physician focused episode, I answer the listener question, “how many income streams is really the right number? And how did you decide?” Then I take it further and explain four key reasons why the number you have in mind may not be the right number! I know this episode is longer than usual but trust me, you’ll wanna stick around until the end. In this episode of The Career Rx we’ll discuss:What being overextended means for your side-gig What’s the magic number? There’s real, peer-reviewed science at work here.Putting social comparison into perspective.How credible sources build credible businesses.You’ve been told that you need a bunch of side gigs and income streams.
