Scrubs & Suits By Afsha Alam
Why am i doing this podcast:
The name “Scrubs and Suits” represents the two distinct categories I will be exploring: medical students (who typically wear scrubs) and entrepreneurs (who often wear suits). By combining these two terms, I have tried to create a catchy and memorable name that perfectly encapsulates the focus of my podcast. Additionally, the name “Scrubs and Suits” suggests a balance between the practical and the professional, which is exactly what my podcast aims to provide.
I wanted to essentially put out content that I wish I had known or seen or listened to when I was first starting out my journey of picking a career then surviving through med school and uni and then finally getting bitten by the entrepreneurial bug.
On this podcast, I want to explore the habits and traits that make people successful particularly as entrepreneurs or medical professionals.
There 2 sides that we will be exploring together in this journey. The content that I will be most interested in exploring on this podcast would be a mixture of the two I just described. So, folks who are medical professionals or have a doctoral degree and are also crushimg it at social media apart from their day job.
We will also discuss the opportunities for foreign graduates here in the US, stuff like getting to know ur options what other foreign graduates did to become successful when they first moved to US this is because being a foreign graduate myself and coming from a country that has way different systems as compared to the US, I understand and feel the need to put out content for my fellow friends who might be in the same shoes as I was years ago. I wish someone would have guided me or showed me ways to better use my skillset in this land of opportunities which is also known as the united states.
So, i just want to create a space where we as students or beginners who are just getting started or maybe not happy with the job they are currently in to discuss the ways we can flourish and make the most of ourselves and maybe take advices from experts who are already where we want to be years down the road.
But, just a quick disclaimer slash note: I am not a career advisor or anybody who has academic knowledge over subjects like career development and growth and entrepreneurship. I am an average foreign grad student living here in the US. Trying to make my way through this land of opportunities and sharing the experiences with people who might resonate with me along the way.
So yes in the beginning you will probably be seeing me talking generally but as we proceed I do wanna bring guests like entrepreneurs or medical professionals or even other professionals who are successful in what they do and share their experiences with us so we can learn from their journey.
This has been a long time coming. I have been procrastinating for years now and its finally happening. So i hope and pray that i provide value to my community.
