The 5 shifts coming for UK medicine (and how to prep)...


Hi Reader

I've spent the last three weeks off the grid,

deep in the trenches with my current cohort of doctors.

The break from creating content, has given me the chance to step back and look at the macro-data of where our profession is actually headed as we move through 2026.

Here's what I'm seeing:

The traditional routes UK doctors have used to find autonomy and freedom are changing in real-time.

Portfolio careers, locum work, private practice pathways, the landscape for all of these are changing.

One thing has become crystal clear: most doctors are still operating on outdated assumptions.

The ones I see successfully building alternatives aren't doing it alone, they're using systems that actually work in 2026, not 2020.

If you're on this list, you're already paying attention.

You're thinking ahead.

So I want to make sure you're prepared for what's coming.

After several years in the online space, moving through non-clinical industry, publishing, and healthtech, I can say this with confidence:

The old playbooks are expiring.

Which is fine, if you know what to do next.

Then you can build a level of freedom and options that most colleagues won't even realise is possible until it's too late.

I have just finished recording my findings..

I’ve identified the 5 key shifts you need to look out for this year to stay ahead of the curve, and I will be dropping a full strategic breakdown of these 5 shifts next week to help you prep.

If you're ready to move from "good intentions" to real infrastructure this year, join the community ​Here to stay ahead when it drops.

I’m also exactly 10 subscribers away from the 1,000 milestone on YouTube.. so if you want to help me reach it... you can subscribe :)

P.S. While you're there...

If you want to see why traditional financial "safety" is actually a trap in the current climate, check out this video. It’s been watched by over 6,000 colleagues and will help with understanding the shifts I'll be breaking down next week.

Hey Reader, Lets talk about side hustles and why they fail, because What if the reason side hustles fail was really simple Not just yours (if you've tried) but everyone's. Here's what the numbers say: 90% of podcasts never make it past episode three. Of the 10% that survive, a further 90% quit before episode 20. The average podcast produces 7 episodes, then stops. If you've ever started something on the side, a podcast, course, and watched it slowly fade after a few months, you're not alone....
