Doc G | A Former Hospice Doctor's Take on Money & Purpose
In this episode, we're joined by Jordan Grumet, also known as ‘Doc G’ - a former hospice doctor turned leader in the financial independence movement. Jordan spent years as a physician before burning out and discovering a new path that combines his medical insights with personal finance wisdom. Today, Jordan shares invaluable lessons learned from his experiences with dying patients and his journey to financial independence. Jordan’s take is different from many of my previous guests, and I found it refreshing and a good reminder to focus on what matters most
Key Takeaways:
Focus on finding purpose, identity, and connections in life rather than just accumulating wealth. Money is a tool, not the end goal.
Understand the three paths to financial independence (the parable of the three brothers) and identify which approach aligns best with your values and goals.
Overcome financial trauma and scarcity mindsets by recognizing their origins and consciously working to change your perspective.
Create "margin" in your life by leveraging all available resources – time, energy, skills – not just money, to build the life you want.
Balance pursuing long-term financial goals with living a purposeful life now. Don't defer all gratification for an uncertain future.
Plus, so much more!
I hope you enjoy this conversation with Jordan as much as I did!
