Episode 109: Turning Your Expertise into 6-Figure Contracts with Dr. Alana Arnold

Melanin & Medicine Podcast

As a healthcare provider, it is so valuable to move around and experience how different facilities operate so that you can find the gaps to create a solution for in your own business for better healthcare overall. That’s why episode 109 of the Melanin & Medicine Podcast is about taking your entrepreneurial skills into the entrepreneur space to fill the gaps in the industry!

The 2021 Funding Your Healthcare Vision Summit is a one-day event that will highlight and create perspective for Black women in healthcare to get funding to create profitable, purpose-led & uniquely funded businesses or practices that are uniquely designed to provide equity for underserved Black and Brown populations.

Instead of sitting on an idea wondering if it’ll be profitable, you leave with the confidence and the proven concept needed to create a stream of income that will allow you to complement or replace your income as a physician.

In this episode of the Melanin & Medicine Podcast, my guest (and coaching client) Dr. Alana Arnold shares the importance of being coachable to be the client you wish to have one day and to shift your perspective to look at your business idea with an entrepreneurial lens alongside your physician lens.

What You’ll Learn From This Episode:

• Seeking out the autonomy to try out new processes in your healthcare system and asking for the space to tweak these processes as needed.
• Taking your intrapreneurship experience and building off of it outside of your facility to become an entrepreneur by nature.
• The challenges Dr. Alana Arnold faced while getting her business off the ground and how Melanin and Medicine has helped overcome some of these hurdles
• Doing something small every day to actively progress towards your goals.
• The big takeaways from someone working in the business to business space and how to come out on top.

Be sure to tune in to all the episodes to receive tons of practical tips on empowering Black women in medicine and academia to find their purpose and achieve their vision.
