We don't often think of money as a health topic, but being savvy with our finances can not only impact our quality of life, but can be really important in case of a medical emergency.  In this episode Dr. Elisa Chiang and I had such a great conversation about Growing a Wealthy Mindset in which we answered the following questions: *************** - As an ophthalmologist, how did Dr. Chiang become an expert in money management? - What are the advantages of investing early in life even if you can't invest much? - Why do women wait until later on in life to start thinking about money management / investing? - How does mindset affect performance when it comes to money management? - How can women like us start learning about money management? - How does coaching help advance our understanding of and strategy for investing? - What about credit cards?  How can they be used to improve your finances? - Which type of investing is the easiest to get started? - Is it wise to have a financial advisor? If so, what should we be looking for? - What are Dr. Chiang's money mindset words of wisdom? *************** Elisa Chiang is an board certified Ophthalmologist, fellowship trained Oculoplastic surgeon and certified Life Coach.
