Disclaimer: This is a sponsored episode. Not advice. Educational purposes only. Not an endorsement for or against. Results not vetted. Views of the guests do not represent those of the host or show. Â
đź“„ In this episode, we deep-dive into bold, practical, and compliant strategies for tax planning for physicians.
Laxman, CPA and co-founder of DocWealth, breaks down the exact tax approaches used by more than 1,000 physicians — including 1099 locums doctors, private practice owners, and W-2 clinicians looking to reduce their tax burden.
Whether you're transitioning out of residency, earning 1099 income for the first time, or already an attending looking to maximize deductions, this conversation will help you understand how to legitimately lower your tax bill using the tax code.
- The most effective strategies in tax planning for physicians
- How 1099 doctors can save tens of thousands using S-corps
- Real estate tax benefits: short-term rental loophole, REP status, cost segregation
- What the Big Beautiful Bill means for physicians in 2025
- SALT deduction updates — and who benefits most
- When doctors should consider a trust for asset protection
🔑 Key Quotes & Insights
“W-2 physicians are limited. The tax code favors business owners.”
“A short-term rental with cost segregation can offset six figures of W-2 income.”
“A properly structured S-Corp can save physicians 8–9% in payroll taxes.”
“Most physicians overpay taxes simply because no one is proactively planning for them.”

🎙️ Universal Law of Attraction and Abundance with Heather Day | Transform Your Money Mindset
đź“„ This episode explores the universal law of attraction and abundance through a practical, mindset-driven, and energetically aligned approach to money. We also dive into bold adjacent ideas like money and spirituality, abundance mindset, spiritual money management, financial surrender, and the law of attraction and money.
Many people who search for guidance on money aren’t just looking for financial tips — they’re seeking emotional relief, clarity, and a new way to align their energy with abundance. If you’ve been feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from your financial flow, this conversation with Heather Day offers the insight and grounding you’ve been craving.
People often struggle with money not because of numbers, but because of unconscious patterns, emotional imbalances, or scarcity-based conditioning. Heather breaks down how money behaviors reflect deeper inner needs, and how shifting your mindset and energetic alignment can dissolve stress and create more ease in decision-making. Instead of pushing, forcing, or resisting, she explains how surrendering in the energetic sense — releasing control, softening the internal struggle, and letting clarity arrive — can open the door to real abundance.
If you’re someone searching YouTube for help with the universal law of attraction and abundance, your questions might sound like:
Why does money feel so stressful?
How do I attract more abundance into my life?
Why do I keep repeating the same money patterns?
How do I stop scarcity thinking?
What mindset shift will finally help me feel aligned with money?
Heather’s experience speaks directly to these challenges. She shares how she and her husband transformed their financial lives by changing their internal patterns — not just their budgets. By understanding emotional triggers, reprogramming reactions, and creating new mental associations with money, she demonstrates how abundance becomes something you tune into, not something you chase.
Her story is a powerful reminder that money is an energetic mirror: it reflects your beliefs, priorities, and internal state. When you realign with clarity, peace, and intention, your financial world begins to shift accordingly. This episode offers grounded wisdom, relatable stories, and actionable insights so you can reconnect with your natural ability to attract opportunities, stability, and flow.

âś… Scaling eCommerce Brands with Abir Syed
✅ Scaling eCommerce Brands is one of the biggest challenges founders face once they’ve reached that early traction stage, and in this episode, CPA-turned-eCommerce operator Abir Syed breaks down how entrepreneurs can overcome plateaus, maintain margins, and scale beyond the limits of their own time, energy, and operational bottlenecks. Whether you're struggling with advertising metrics, cash flow forecasting, inventory management, delegation, or 8-figure operations, this conversation delivers clear, experience-backed answers that match exactly what people search for when trying to grow an eCommerce brand effectively.
Founders looking for help with scaling eCommerce brands typically ask questions like:
• “Why am I stuck at 6 or 7 figures?”
• “How do I keep margins healthy when ad costs rise?”
• “When should I hire? When should I replace myself?”
• “What data actually matters for profitable scaling?”
Abir Syed’s background—starting in accounting, running an 8-figure eCommerce brand hands-on, moving into advertising, and now running a 70-person eCommerce accounting & CFO firm—makes him uniquely qualified to answer these exact questions. His expertise sits at the intersection of financial clarity, eCommerce operations, and performance marketing, giving founders a blueprint for sustainable growth rooted in real data instead of guesswork.
This episode is tailored to the search intent of entrepreneurs who want solutions to:
âś” inconsistent cash flow
âś” poor understanding of true acquisition costs
âś” weak operational systems
âś” margin erosion
âś” lack of clarity in revenue, profitability, and scaling strategy
You’ll learn how Abir identifies bottlenecks, how he advises brands on omnichannel expansion, how to manage the “unglamorous” operational side of scaling, and how founders can break past the mindset barriers that keep them from hitting 8-figure growth. If you're actively researching how to scale your eCommerce business, optimize profitability, and build processes that don’t depend on you—this episode gives you the frameworks, insights, and wisdom to take the next leap.

âś… Humanizing Healthcare with Dr. Amy Loden Tiffany, MD
✅ Humanizing healthcare is more than a trend—it's a necessity in a world dominated by AI, Google, and overwhelmed medical systems. In this episode, Dr. Amy Loden Tiffany, MD shares how she helps women reconnect with real care in an era of digital overload, physician burnout, and distrust in the system.
Are you searching for a healthcare experience that prioritizes you, not the algorithm? Tired of being dismissed, misdiagnosed, or misunderstood—especially around postpartum health, midlife women's health, or your emotional wellness? You're not alone. Many women feel unheard by traditional medicine. Dr. Amy, a physician and TEDx speaker, explains how her concierge telemedicine clinic offers more than prescriptions—it offers clarity, connection, and transformation.
If you've ever turned to Google or ChatGPT for answers, felt lost after a medical visit, or wondered why your symptoms are dismissed as “in your head,” this conversation will speak directly to you. Dr. Amy unpacks how she left a broken medical system to build one that works for women, how AI in medicine can be a tool (not a replacement), and why restoring trust in healthcare starts with listening.
Whether you're a new mom, navigating menopause, or simply searching for a doctor who gets it, this episode gives you actionable insight into your care journey—and how to reclaim it.
