Dr. Latifat Akintade is a remarkable individual who has transformed her life and the lives of countless others through her expertise in personal finance and her compassionate approach to teaching. However, her journey to success was far from conventional.

"I wasn't always like this," Dr. Akintade reflects, acknowledging her personal transformation. As a recovering people pleaser and self-sacrificing ex-broke physician, she intimately understands the struggles and challenges that many individuals face when it comes to managing their finances.

In her early years, Dr. Akintade had minimal knowledge about money. Despite her medical expertise, she found herself banging her head against walls while trying to fit into the traditional bucket of financial education. Realizing that continuing down that path would only lead to frustration and setbacks, she made the brave decision that a hematoma wouldn't look good on her.

Today, Dr. Latifat Akintade’s journey serves as a testament to the power of self-discovery and the importance of breaking free from societal expectations. Through her work, she continues to touch lives, opening doors for individuals to embrace financial freedom, joy, and fulfillment.

About Succeed in Medicine

Was your training enough to handle everything physician life demands? From lawsuits to leadership, career decisions to challenging conversations, balancing the personal with the professional — not enough was addressed in medical school, residency or fellowship. This show fills those gaps so you can live up to the expectations that come with the white coat — not just in the exam room, but in all the places your MD follows you. Your host, Dr. Bradley Block, a private practice ENT, is right there with you — navigating the same challenges and bringing in world-class guests to teach, as he puts it, “everything we should have been learning while we were memorizing Kreb’s cycle.” With nearly 500 episodes and close to half a million downloads, Brad has built a trusted space where physicians come for brass-tacks, immediately-applicable advice. You don’t need another certification. You need a podcast that covers personal finance, private practice, side-gigs, main-gigs, reacting to bad reviews, misinformation, social media, charting, parenting, communicating, negotiating, leading, managing, teaching, learning and what to do when someone yells, “Is there a doctor on board?”
