Hi doctor nurse podcast, welcome to another episode.
And today we have on Aisha, Alan she is a CRNA, dnp doctor and
she started with her BSN in 2013 started her nursing career in
the step-down unit in Virginia Beach and then six months later
jumped into the cardiac surgery ICU where she started her
journey to become a nurse and a seismologist or a nurse
anesthetist. No, wait, nurse anesthetist,
right? You had it right though.
New term is anesthesiologist, so you go ahead.
Excuse me, excuse me. Nurse, I don't want to be.
Oh my goodness, you guys are getting call nursing
anesthesiologist. Oh my gosh, that is so ba.
That is so be it, you know? But like we could have another
conversation. Oh my, I thought I read it
wrong. I was like, I got it wrong.
Know that, I love that. Okay.
So she originally took to social media to encourage nurses, to
pursue advanced practice degrees, and has started to get
kind of metamorphosis her platform into To get wealth step
away from the bedside, come back to the bedside, as a nurse.
That's not burned out, or broke or tired, because you have been
able to kind of generate your own Revenue side.
Hustles. We've been wanting to talk, I'm
so glad you talked to her thanks for coming on today.
Good at this, I just have to say, like, you're freaking good
at this. I love it.
Girl, I'm pregnant.
Don't make me cry. It kind of just let it flow.
So again, I'd introduce you but tell my listeners again.
You kind of see your role and how you view what you do on a
day-to-day basis. Yeah.
So by trade nurse anesthesiologist, my role is to
meet a patient and in five minutes, gain their trust enough
for them, to let me put them to sleep, feel comfortable, of
course, you're going to have anxiety, and to trust me enough
to watch every single heartbeat. Every breath that they take
every bat of their Ash and wake them up and send them home to
their family and yes and I told us about Bill it's not a small
deal. A lot of people get.
They see my platform to the bedside I make money as a CRNA
and they forget what I actually do for that income and if I only
cared about the money, I would not be good at my job, so just
to say that. So that's how I look at my job,
I love it. It's an investment becoming a
CRNA, three years of not working unless you Built-in come.
And that's kind of where I learned.
I felt that shift of like, oh, wait, they really wanted me to
go to school without any income. There's some people do because
it's, you know, you get loans and it's an investment, you can
pay it back. But yeah, it's a nursing is easy
ologist. Just like nurses.
We are the Crux of healthcare surgeries do not start without
the anesthesia. So, you know, you hear all this
blame indices of this plane - you sure that, you know, we kind
of just laugh hahaha because like you wouldn't be cutting
into this patient if they're not comfortable.
Who do you call when your patients and pacu?
And in a lot of pain, you call pain doctors.
So I love my job that way. And I have now found even A
Renewed passion because I just left the military so spend last
three years by earned a scholarship to the Air Force.
If anyone doesn't know me, I am all about strategy, I will make
a move to bust a move and so I joined the eighth had cut an
hpsp scholarship to pay for my tuition, my nurses easier
tuition. So, you owe back.
Yeah, you go back. Active duty time.
Three years. But like and three years, I
blinked. It was done.
And so I served three years travel, the world doesn't Japan,
just got back here in October. I put myself in his position to
be where I am right now, which is I'm not working until 2023 of
March after my birthday and when I go back, I'm working two days
a week. I posted a picture about that.
You know an email that I got there, like days, are you going?
Be working full-time or part-time part-time man, two
days a week and I'll be working with kids.
We were talking about that briefly.
I'm working on pediatric dental. And yeah and so my nursing
career kind of Miss Meadow of morphed into this experience
where I'm at now being like, Oh No She days a week because I
make good money, guess I love what I do yes, I'll be working
with Medicare Medicaid patients, so I'm not getting paid very
well. You asked us the RNA about my
salary, they'd be like, girl, you Like that's nothing but it's
because of the short term rentals, the real estate, all
the other things that I have dabbled in where I'm like, oh I
got income coming other places. I don't have to sell my soul and
so my time for to the highest bidder if I don't want to.
So that's where I am right now. I love that.
I love that because what you're describing is working out of
overflow and out of passion instead of working out of
necessity and working out of a sense of obligation to the Bills
or the things that you've got to pay for, right?
So you've got all these liabilities, pulling your money
away. You're like, no, I've invested
in assets, which is now giving me my time back, right?
That is the currency. You can't pay to can't by the
hand. This is the piece that you got.
Yeah, like yeah. I investing like I invested in
number one though, in the greatest asset that I know is
me. Yes, like and so everyone listen
to his podcast, most of us are probably nurses or going to
become a nurse, you have done that already.
You have invested in your greatest asset yourself.
And so now you have a very stable job, I do.
My platform is all about ditch the bedside, but I wouldn't be
here without nursing, like, I need to set that straight like
nursing changed my life. And if, Is hit the fan today, I
would go back and be a bedside nurse, and I would hit the
floor. If I needed to, I have no qualms
about it. The, it's a crazy skill set to
have that side office Amazon's probably about to hire, you
know, bedside nurses soon. Did you feel like this is a
skill and a trade? That you can't touch.
Yeah. And so I'm like this podcast
were talking about like stepping outside of bedside to me.
It's like it's deep. /. I know I mentioned, I've just
came from Japan. There's this term called, is she
got lucky? I know so it means life's work.
And I talked about this in my horses, we have been brought up
in a capitalistic system and I will not sit him in capitals and
bad. Like we need money to live.
I can have a conversation today but we have conditioned
ourselves and we brought in system where our life's work is
nursing. It's an accountant, it's being
an analyst. It's all the things that we go
to work to create and generate income for somebody else and the
term and about is she gawky is what is your life's Mission
actually, that is your life's work.
So for me it's Building Wealth within our communities, not to
be rich and flashy and get a Bentley in a Rolls-Royce but to
build enough. Well so that we can actually
pursue life's work in all of ours are different.
So what your life's work, maybe to just be the best mom that you
can and stay home and to go to work two days a week and care
for the world and that's your life's work.
Work and you get to spend more time doing that for me, it's
showing people what life can be. That's my life's work.
But if I am stuck in necessity and stuck in needing to bring
in, come home to my family, then there's just chart, I'll send it
to you. Maybe you could post it
somewhere, there's this chart, that shows.
Yeah. So there's a chart where it has
the work that the world needs the work that you love the
life's work, that you love something that brings you
income, and there's four quadrants, I can't remember.
The time I had with the fourth one is and a lot of us, stay in
the quadrant where it's what makes us money.
Now, when you move towards the center of this chart, you're at
the center of what makes you money, what the world needs,
what you love doing and what's good for the world?
But nurses and it's why I love working.
Nurses, we already every day. We walk wake up and go to work.
We are doing what the world needs, but we're so far over and
and doing what makes us money. So, we're on one half of the
chart. I want to try to get us to the
center of it and where we are doing a lot of the things that
we love and that can generate US income and what the world needs.
But nurses really have to afford checked out.
We don't there's people who wish and strive wake up and say I do
I feel fulfilled because I'm not doing anything for the world
because humans are fulfilled by service.
Yeah. And so we have that already and
so I want to move us to the life's work.
What sets us on fire? What do we love doing?
What would not feel like work? And we briefly talked about this
before? I think the closer we get to
that, you would have nurses being happy to skip into work
because they're fulfilled outside.
Imagine going. Work, and everyone's everyone's
working two days, three days a week with smiles on their faces,
it would be lit. I think everyone it would be
amazing. Obviously, you gotta get the
for-profit hospital systems in order but yeah.
So just that's where I'm at on this Mission aside from building
businesses and things and real estate.
That is so cool. I love that whole diatribe that
you just shared basically saying, Hey listen like I want
us to be in the middle of a Under of knowing what we love
doing, what brings Joy, brings a service to the world.
What we're passionate about, I wanted to help us bring money
because it's unrealistic to say that we don't need money or
people don't need to work for profit.
I think there's something about greed that I have found as I've
gotten older than I'm just like, well, that's just greedy.
Like, you know, when somebody comes and takes like, you know,
when I went trick-or-treating with my kid, he took one piece
of candy from everybody's. It was so precious one.
And I was like they're like no no take more.
And he was like, nope I'm okay. I'm content with just the one.
Where did you get that from? I don't know where he got think.
It's my how you chill. He's my husband is so like
content. So like I think no, I think it
is. It's the parenting right?
And so I was so proud of him. I little mama heart was so full
because I was noticing, he wasn't that kid, that was like
all the kids taking it, he wasn't being greedy.
And so, I think you can get what you need and other people have
different levels of need, right? Like some people want certain
things. Or they certain things.
And okay, fine, I think that's okay, get what you feel like you
need, but I think to a certain degree, the greed is what's
turning people off to certain concepts of capitalism where
it's like okay that is just greedy.
Like come on man. You're just taking advantage of
people's vulnerabilities, those types of things bother me about
it. But I do look ago, it's on
realistic to say that we don't need these things to be able to
live and to provide a family, especially your, where we live,
right? Yes, keep it real.
We live in the United. States.
Most of us. I mean, I'm sure you have
listeners all over the world but to it's crazy.
You know what? You know about the United
States? You step out your house is
expensive. Yes.
I don't want any more expensive with inflation and I mean, I
wouldn't sell a car and eggs the same eggs.
I bought like not even six months ago, they've gone up two
dollars. I was like this is crazy like
Derby, which is why I have chickens like that's a whole
other podcast for another day. Girl, I know, I know, I know, I
just know. So great.
If there's a person that refuses to get, like, beat up over the
head by a capitalistic Society, it's me.
And sometimes my detriment, but like we have chickens back here
in the city of Durham North Carolina and not paying those
precious honey. I don't blame.
You know, they're probably cleaner eggs to man, get the
chickens out there in the sun living the best life Scavenging.
And their eggs are, I mean they Allah while and they're animals,
they are free rage. I was eight.
They fly over the fences, three Rage Cage free.
They're all the things free. They really, you're not even
your kids or for you girl, even your chickens are free.
Yeah, everybody's reading my chickens are free free at last.
They're free. My chickens are free, okay, and
I wish that on everybody, that is so funny.
So tell me a little bit about what you were doing on this side
to be able to go two days a week because I know there's a nurse
out there, that's like, okay, wait a minute, what did you do?
Cuz I'm hungry for days and I want to, I'm having to do five.
How do I get down to where you are, take me through your
process and how you started investing in yourself with your
DMP, and then just kind of moved into, all right?
I want to set myself, free from the grind and do the stuff that
I'm passionate about. Would you say that the term was
in Japanese? If she got key, is she gaki?
I want to get that. Sorry.
Wow, my brain. So I must say that I just got
over covid y'all. I'm like, oh, it's okay.
What did you get? Is a different icky guy?
Icky guy, okay. Guy is she got?
Key is my favorite island of Japan?
Y'all, it's called a key guy. That's what you got.
Oh yeah, I Ki icky guy. So life's work.
Okay. Thank you.
Gotta file enough in Japan, so I'm just impressing the
Japanese. So don't worry, you're good.
I do not, I don't like the, I know how to order food, I don't
say hello and good night. I'll be a pretty good life
skills. So I think quick background
story you mentioned it. I was at the ICU nurse, I had
applied for nursing school, literally the day before the
deadline because it was 2008 and I'm looking around at everyone
and 2008 like the job market just hearing.
Like, I'm a vision, I'm a Visionary.
Like I look way ahead and I sat in my room, on Christmas break
around this time. Actually, and I'm like, what do
I want my life to be? I'm 18, but when I finished
College, what's what There for me.
And I was a graphic design major at the time, and I love that and
probably would have went to have Kaizen and been fine.
I'm very confident in my abilities to do.
Well that was like, I don't mean that as an athletic trainer in
high school for four years and I was like, oh, let's try nursing.
So I applied. I knew I would get in because I
had, I was a D1 athlete at the time of the school.
My grades were right, and I was like, oh, this application looks
great. So got my rexton, I applied.
And at the same time, I was looking at that application.
Ation. I said, well, where do I go
after that? Because I am the first daughter
of two Caribbean, parents education.
Yeah. It's my mom's where Ruben my ass
in Jamaica. My mom speaks Spanish,
Portuguese, all the deal. So cool didn't teach us the word
love him. And so I was like, I knew I had
to go back to school. I just knew so I was like,
what's a nurse 1 grad, school of nursing and back.
Then the only two things that came up were nurse practitioner
and CRNA, And I was looking at nurse practitioners like just
for off what I knew. Don't let anyone come from me, I
was like, I'm not gonna be working at the hospital anymore
like that. Like I saw them at the bedside
and I was like, no, that's not what I want to do it.
So I saw CRNA and I look at the salaries and I said, oh yeah, I
just really do that after I graduate school.
Yeah. So from, then I said, that's
what I want to do because I knew that making that amount of
money, I would be secure. Call it what you want.
I knew that's what I needed to do.
Now me being young and naive, I didn't really know what that
entail but I just had said it my mind and I was going to do it so
fast forward went to the ICU step down immediately.
Found a CBI, see job and couldn't get it initially.
And so I just started working like I didn't want to wait
around just to get a nice easy job and so eight months after
that, I applied got in. Like I worked at a very good ICU
and started that journey of Air Force, like I mentioned.
And when I started school because you know, he wanted the
military to pay for your D. I knew that he I was looking at
that. What I was like, how do I pay
for the expensive? Yeah that's who.
And I found some some other scholarships that are in zafer
scholarship that they had closed that funding down it was time
for me to go. It sounds like okay pivot, I
guess its military and so when I started school in 2016, I
stopped working. I was getting a stipend and From
the military. So you pay about 1200, 1200
dollars, twice a month. And I was looking at my
classmates and they were struggling like we went to
expenses who I was to do. Like there was no by the time
you leave, there's 250,000 dollars after everything and I
chose Duke on purpose, but I was looking at people struggling,
they made it obviously and could pay backs because of the skill
set. But even I was feeling a little
tight in my finances and I was like, well I know I'm not going
back. It's because I couldn't stand
it, mainly the people like I'm not gonna sit here, I'm trash
bedside nursing. It was named in the people and
the scheduling, and yeah, that I didn't like and I said, I need
and I was starting to figure out how the hospitals were working.
You're talking about that briefly and how personalities
are just, they're contagious 1. And when people are upset and
jealous and just gross, they can turn a whole tide of nurses
against you. And I was like, I don't ever
want to be in a position. And where I'm like dreading
going to work. I don't like being dependent on
the military to send me money even though I know they're
supposed to yes waiting around for a check this twelve hundred
dollar check like did it because of yeah it was a check.
Male could. I don't know, it could be
snowing in the mail doesn't come and I still don't have a check.
And I was like, oh wow, yeah, no.
This is not like that's where it clicked for me like that
instance and I started like, researching.
What do people do? It didn't take me long because
in this anesthesia School, you are exposed your circles
immediately different. You are now an operating rooms
with Millionaires surgeons other crnas.
Come on, girl, the people who helped certain select the right
screws. That's a whole different class
of people who. So we were in the operating
room, I'm learning anesthesia, but then the see our neighbor
Leaf would come in and be like, oh, did you see the stocks?
Oh, what did you do this again? Oh, I took the boat out with the
girls. It was great.
And I'm over here, like do both And you have a look like me.
I'm training in Wilmington, North Carolina and I'm like oh
this is different. And so we we talked about
anesthesia and then I'd like can you tell me about what you mean?
But what about that? Oh well we all have real estate.
We all own apartment buildings. We all invested together in an
apartment building. Wow.
So that like the circle and I
say the network makes your net worth immediately.
I was like, oh, true. So half the time I would be
getting pimped about questions. Anesthesia half the time.
I'm pimping them about oh so what do you mean about apy?
And after repair value arv, so I had a to full education systems
and see her to clinicals going. You have the two full of life
and the clinical of CRNA School. Right.
So I want to fuck. Okay.
And so halfway through your high school I bought a home.
Everyone tells me, don't do that.
You just finished school. Don't don't buy a home.
I have a home here in downtown Durham about four hundred fifty
seven thousand dollars. It's not worth 357 because I
said and I'm listening to the people who've done it before
around me. Yeah.
Now have a you know a renter in there and at that time I didn't
know I don't get it but then I moved to Las Vegas to start my
career in the Air Force and you know you have a choice of where
to go and I was like well where's the real estate?
The best out of these places, it was Las Vegas.
They were going to build a you know you look at City plans are
about to build a Raider Stadium and they getting all these new
things and city of Las Vegas. So I went and I found a home for
two hundred thousand dollars now we're 389.
And that I just have renters in. And I put I started short-term
rentals with that. I bought that for.
How much did you start with pain down?
Like because I mean your way you're still, you're done with
school. Yeah, you're making money.
So did you put down like 10%? I did you put down my hateful
20,000 for the house in Durham? They have down payment
assistance. A lot of cities have down
payment, assistance. And I found this house
specifically because I wasn't making income technically that
money, that stipend is not It as income and for the hpsp
scholarship and so that house has like a deed on it.
That required it to be this how they stopped or delayed
gentrification the / people having to move into that house,
have to have an income below. A certain amount was a beautiful
house and so I was like oh that's me typically and so I
moved into that house and I just lived there and this is what I
coach people on in my network and the hive.
By where you live everybody. You're living there.
Someone else has to move. Lay their head there.
It's easiest thing ever. If you're nursing school
somewhere by and we can talk about Rabbi or whatever.
But yeah, so nothing with that one.
This next one which is also why I joined the military no payment
down now, go down payment cuz I was the VA VA loan loan right
now. But like I said, there's down
payment systems for everything. There's find programs where you
can buy a home. FHA 2003, and they give you
funds to renovate it. And I'm just going to plug this
in right now. If I knew what I knew.
Now, as a nursing student, I would have gotten a little CNA
job. Not little, scuse me.
I was young at the time, so I'm calling myself little.
Yeah. I would have gotten a part-time.
Some that gives me a W-2. Yeah.
And I would have taken that W2 and taking it to A lender and
bought a four-plex or Triplex or something that would allow me to
live in one and right out the other The other.
Yeah, but other nurses something I would have done that if I knew
what I knew now and after year or after however, many years of
nursing school, I would have left and just hired a property
management team and left and had a property of four doors.
So, so far, I didn't know. So after Las Vegas.
So as you get hungry position for the military, you're picking
up property in these different spots that you're being
stationed at and then what I'm gathering.
Okay, pick up. You little pick up.
And so three years came, very capable and very quickly, I
spent the last two years, in Japan, enjoying the heck out of
it. I really, really loved
everything. But my Japan, they say it slowly
the cultures super me and I was there when the borders were
closed. Oh, so good.
Yeah. So I just got to skip around
that place, like, no one there. It was the most beautiful thing
I've ever experienced. I could understand people.
So I was just like on the train, you order food, you ordered
Buddy, one is one person and so then right before I left Japan I
was like well I haven't bought in a while.
I started coaching and do all these things inside that I just
bought my most recent property in August and Puerto Rico
original so I was very impressed.
Yeah so I'm moving it. So I'm going to be living there.
Half time actually I know, I know.
Wow, you're gonna be on the island girl, I need the water.
I need the ocean and their strategy behind that your tax
benefits to moving over there. Yeah, so that's one thing and
then I just started my next Endeavor which is actually
raising private money to. This is what I learned is
actually people do is they raise money either, their friends or
their whatever to buy, Data are buildings, the bigger Apartments
indications. Yeah.
So I have now put together my first indication yet called
ancestors capital, and I am now bringing in nurses at the
bedside nurses at very, very, like, very low barrier to entry
like, usually, like 50k to start getting into syndications.
Yeah, I'm like, Like more than, I don't know the word, it's way
less than, like overtime shift less that you can get in for
these types of things. And so, I spent a lot like just
listening to everyone paying coaches understanding the game,
and now that's what I'm doing is bringing this indications to
people operating the projects. I have this big one coming up
here in North Carolina and so that's where I'm trying to take.
People is me being you putting your money in.
I'm also teaching people as I go.
Around because I can't just take your money.
That's just about how I'm wired. So taking their, you know,
investing it giving them interest back but also to
filming the behind-the-scenes and coaching people through what
is actually happening on the job sites.
And so, you're paying in, you're getting your investing getting
interest, and you're also learning.
So, that's my mission. Is to, like, teach people what
I'm doing, maybe you don't want to do this and operate a whole
project yourself. Maybe you just want to invest
and make passive income, truly, passive income.
And so I'm helping There's also do that.
So how are you going to do? Part-time CRNA and then live,
half the year in Puerto Rico? Are you going to be working as a
CRNA in Puerto Rico? No, no, no.
So you're going to be working part-time, six months out of the
year and not working. Maybe six months.
Yeah, so from North Carolina, it's a three-hour flight to
Puerto Rico. Mmm.
And so I'm thinking I'm working, as make sure to clap when the
plane lands. I'll put her Ricans clap, when
the plane lands. Really all clap.
Oh, 100%, we're just thankful guy.
Got us on the ground. You can't even we all clap.
Okay. Well, I will just do it, you
know, the codes. Okay.
Okay, I will like a few like at least four months out of the
year every month or so you think one month out of the quarter?
I'll be living over there just as a nice little R&R kind of
feel so cool that is yeah. Oh cool.
Yeah, yeah. And so I'm moving some of my
businesses there so there's just a different ways.
Zach, 20 and x22 look it up. If you're trying to Shield your
money from taxes, it's legal tax.
Shielding, my tax reduction is legal.
Yeah, yeah. You're the worst.
I've seen you don't pay them but I'm really smart because I don't
pay. I was read to read.
It sounds like counting, I think.
Yeah, I tell people in my networks like, put together a
team of people, like, put together together your board of,
advisors, the world and especially the United States
runs off of treating, you like a business, but we don't treat
ourselves that way. Oh, that means probability with
In businesses, we are Pawns in someone else's business skiing.
Take hot girl, I am legitimately going to quote that.
Keep going, keep going. He's like, yeah, yeah, that's
what you just said. So like I have a course on this.
It's called treat yourself like a business.
We people, I don't know what to start.
LLC just started. LLC with, you could be at your
marketer. You could be marketing for your
services, like you could be an advertising agency, that pitches
yourself out if your travel nurse.
And you Market yourself. And that's an LLC, that's a
business. You start a YouTube channel.
It doesn't matter if anybody watches your stuff, your a
business, So up High 25-minute video its business.
It doesn't matter how successful your business is just letting
people know that. Yeah.
And when you operate lat way and you charge, whatever, I can't,
you know, I'm not going to I'm not--that's not Financial advice
so I'll leave it there, I'll park it there as an LLC.
You can write things off, you have a home office.
It's a written off your cellphone or right off your
insurance or right off. So, you start operating that
way. Way.
And all of a sudden your life is written off and you have now
reduced your tax liability, your taxable income and me you know
keeping it real. I my business on its own, not
see, anesthesia made a hundred eighty thousand dollars out me
trying. And I was like, oh I gotta get.
This is a lot of money. That is the you're talking like,
ask aside from your real estate. This is aside from your income.
Your see, Renee income. Yes.
So aside from like the money you get from your rentals aside from
your CRNA, your businesses through like course you re n?
Yes. Keep going.
Tell me all this stuff yet. You via shop UV as a blue eye
glasses company. Put that on right now.
These right here, shop you go. Oops.
Yeah. Shop you via.com.
It's Black. Ice is that I want I started
this while I was in CRNA school, because we were going to be on
the computer a lot. And I was like, I went on Amazon
and I saw, I didn't like, yeah, not cute.
So I found a suppliers and I started marketing to healthcare
providers and that generated a cool.
Like, I would say 2K a month after all expenses, and that's
when I really get really clicked for me.
What because I did that while I was in school, because I wanted
some extra income and that was like, my first.
I kind of forget about it because it's kind of on
autopilot now, like I don't do anything for it.
I hired, you know, shippers and people who do the marketing and
all of them have downloadable here, incredible girl.
So you've got your eyeglasses and then your course, is social
media. I'm sure you got social media
sponsorships. Things are coming here, honey.
I do so I'm a word I told me. I'm the worst influencer in the
world. Like I have an entire email
inbox of people who are like, We'll pay you three grand to
post this, whatever. And I look at him like what I
wouldn't use it and I'm proud of myself for that.
Like, I don't just take the next step, it's just not me, it's not
in my character, and this is no shade, no tea to end.
The influencers getting out like get your money honey, that's
just not that's just not my cup of tea.
I'm here to do something else and social media.
This is not to say I'm leaving a lot of money on the table so I
think in 2023 I'm about to like really become an influencer.
Yeah. Yeah.
But like, yeah, I have some like, affiliate codes like
affiliate links. Yeah, thanks chef's.
Kiss of things that you actually use just for anyone here.
Anybody can like become an affiliate.
Anyone can like make user-generated content.
Like, everybody could be making money online right now easily.
So yes, that generate about 180,000 dollars.
That is, it has a name but to me, that's scary.
I don't like that money. Just sitting there, I know
you're a tax liability. Right.
And who's gonna take it? Uncle Sam.
All the half of it. Yes.
So I was like, when it started to put everything together, like
it all started clicking in my brain.
Why people are throwing holiday parties at the end of the year
because things together, give it to their employees.
Then to give it to the government tax write-off.
Why not tax runs a freak treat yourself to your employee to
self. And also yeah, then give it to
the government. No.
Then to give it. To the government.
Yeah the government does it the military military does it?
They buy all these at the end of the fiscal year computer this TD
that it's all money? So back in the spirit of
treating yourself like a business if we understood that
thanks for listening to the episode I hope you're enjoying

And when I'm building here, any promotion, any sharing helps
build my audience and I greatly appreciate it.
Now, let's get back to the episode.
At the end of the year, everything that you have made.
If you didn't invest it in your 401k, in your 403b, in your tsp,
in an IR and in a Reit. If you didn't invest it, it's
now taxable income. But when it's your business, I'm
not sure this. But when you get it off your
books, you have 2 books and you invest it.
Yeah. You have reduced your tax
liability. They're not going to say, oh
we're going to tax that. Why?
Because it's gone. It's invested and a lot of the
billionaires and millionaires. Choose real estate because real
is just becoming a real estate. Investor is a huge dip.
They send you a check, they'll send you a check for being a
real estate. Investor is crazy and so you can
do it. Passively, I have a link on my
Instagram through fun dries. It's your investing.
It people go and find these apartment buildings in all these
great cities. And other people are doing the
work. You put your little money in
there. I was investing five hundred
dollars a month. When I was in operating this in
the kit just right off my phone and it's just you are now a real
estate investor and you can print a tax document from these
places. These automated ones and give it
to your TAP TurboTax. Whoever does your taxes and dust
your hands of it? You're not real estate investor.
Wow. Five, Guys, she is dropped so
many nuggets. Like, ignorant thinking, how do
I create passive income? She's just giving you five to
six ideas of things to do right there, right now that you can
start figuring out and investing in your self, and she has turned
her side hustles into making her job.
Now, one of the side hustles, the job is gone from the made
hustle. So now, another one of the side
hustles, it's almost like you turn.
All your pain. Ons, or maybe you had like one
Pond, but now you have like a king, a queen, a rook, you're
playing chess and you're no longer playing with little tiny
protons moving one step at a time.
Now, you're dashing across the chess board or the way and a
different. You're playing a different game.
No, this is. This is huge.
And one of the things I always ask all these business owners
that I talk to is, what is one of the most challenging aspects
that you had to overcome in creating the business.
One way that your Nursing degree helps you have an edge.
So, how did you have an edge because of your background as a
nurse? And then what's one thing that
you're like? This is a grind because I didn't
have enough ground as a business.
Yeah, tell me that you don't mind.
So I don't mind at all. Such a good question.
By the way, they have one thing that is different in our
education. As nurses is there's no
Financial classes. Doctors have a course and at
least an elective on how to manage their money.
We don't have that and so we should change that.
Oh, that's a whole nother thought for another day.
But I'm on a mission like no, that's not have elected for
something? Yes.
But and so I would teach it really like any of us.
Come on, let's go. All right, go ahead as a nurse.
I was not taught we were, we're taught to take orders like we
are. Brought up to wait until
somebody tells us to do something or someone puts a
script in, so that we can do something that mindset is
hindering. I'm grateful.
And I always like to say this on every podcast everything, I'm
very privileged, I know my privilege, I know where I came
from to have two parents in the in the home, who pushed
education for me. Who taught me how to speak for
myself and stand up for myself. That does not for everyone
doesn't have that. So having that privilege and
understanding and knowing when something doesn't feel right,
something is off. It's something that was an 8 for
me, but coming in, to answer your question as a nurse that
nursing gut. Gives me a leg up that that
knowledge of like, oh something is awesome.
Things about to pop off. That patient is looking a little
Mmm. Yeah.
That outside the room like that? I can tell we have an innate
like emotional intelligence is huge and we could talk to
someone and be like, oh, you're a schemer.
I'm not doing this with you like your shady, your shade.
Yeah. And so like as a nurse I think
that's something that is Unstoppable.
Bubble. But they have something I didn't
have. Is that knowledge but I went and
I, you found it first before it. Yes, yes.
So yeah. Yes, no.
And that was one of the things I was thinking about as you were
talking. I was like, so, one of the
things I love is that you call yourself privileged because
privileged, because all of us have a leg up in one way or
another, and one of us may or may not all of us have something
that brings all of us, all of us.
So, like, you can I stay a lot of us live in the United States.
Without a bomb dropping on her head privilege.
We not see what happened in Afghanistan.
Women can't go to school now privileged, I don't want to hear
a damn thing about we have Internet.
We are on the same page because yeah, it was one of the things
that really bothered me was that there's this rhetoric and that's
one thing, that's why I bring it up.
What did you have to overcome? Because we're all overcoming
something regardless of the color of our skin regardless of
our age or background wherever we came from.
We're having to overcome some all of us, all of us.
And so I have a, I look at my, they're like, oh, you had a
friend. She said, oh, you're not
privileged because your dad is black.
I said, are you kidding me? I am so privileged because my
father is African American playing that game either.
I don't play into it either because and I'm like, have you
met my dad? Like I need him like that.
My mom. Have you met my mom or baby?
Like, I'm with you on that. It is not a matter of Skin color
that allows privilege or no privilege.
It is a matter of looking insane.
Hey man, what it is, what it is. What did I have?
That gives me a leg up and let up because we're all dealing
with these, you have to overcome their things.
I have to overcome people hate when I say this but that's I
don't say it publicly often but I felt really comfortable saying
here. Like we have a special people
living listening to this podcast right now.
We are top earners more than that more often than not.
Now, the people who are listening, as we are top earners
in the world. Yes, yes, I don't have time to
hear you talk about. Nothing.
No, you're 100% correct. Yes.
Get after you've got no excuse and wherever you come from, we
are all dealing. We acknowledge it, we heard
knowledge it, we acknowledge it. We say, Hey, listen.
These are things that are hard because I had immigrant parents.
These are things that were easy because I had immigrant parents.
I hate my parents that were like, education, always.
And I also have a great parent that.
I was like, okay. So I don't really understand the
English that. Well, right understanding, what
I'm saying words wrong and there's things that I mean.
Yes it's under pit and I was like my dad was like what's
under pay. And I was like, you know, the
pit under your arm and my dad was like, it's called armpit I
know. What are you teaching?
Our kids, you know it was just that was like for me, right?
And it was a beautiful part of it but it's also one of the
things that's like well I mean that was a little difficult.
Like going to school right out. Like I was calling things are
wrong. They because my moms Puerto
Rican. Funny.
That was so me. Yes, you know, but you're so
right. And it's like, I also do want to
say, I can sit here and be like, I never wanted for food.
I never had to think twice about dinner being on the table.
Yeah, am I ought to be good? But it was their right?
And I will not sit here and also say that, you know, those days
my mom is like we don't have money for McDonald like we don't
have money for that if I do want to acknowledge.
There are people who come from some very rough circumstances
that things that I don't even like, I can't even imagine are
happening to them and I want. And so in terms of privilege,
and when I say that word, that's what I mean, I have never have
to wonder about food, shelter, water, anything, and so I can't
even speak to those experiences of people who have.
And so, when we come on these podcasts, and we talk about
these things, and why I preach and say, all the The as much as
I can, it's for those types of people who don't have who aren't
in the networks that I'm in, who aren't in the rooms that I'm in.
So I'm going to come out here and just say in hopes that we
all can reach those points and Pinnacles of life.
But we're not. Having a scrap and fight all the
time for everything. Yes.
If that's what a lot of people's real world experiences are.
Yes. And because I think what you're
saying is so poignant because it is true, there are people that
have struggles that we have no idea what they're going through.
And when I hear about my mom and She was raised in Puerto Rico
and the things that she endured to get to the United States and
how she is so Scrappy and such a hard time because of what she
came from. And realizing I one generation
separated from that, just one it's humbling.
But it also makes me realize like, I've got no bills uses
because my mom literally had to go get water from a well, and
bring, okay. It's like we don't understand
what it was. No, we have no understanding
about none. So, So again, and my mom isn't
that privilege. She's one of the hardest working
people. My dad literally was says, she
will work you under the table. You can't out work, right?
Is in her 60s, you know? So it's that mentality of just
been through it. And again it was tough but at
the same time she doesn't focus and fixate on it.
And for example like our examples are work work your ass
off like yeah. And I hate that that there's
like a love-hate. Like you need hard work for the
it's 2022 by. 20:23 and unfortunately hard work is the
currency right now. My goal is for hard work.
Hard beating like struggle not to be the currency of my
children. I don't want that to have to be
what they Exchange in the world to be seen as valuable, to be
seen as a person to be treated the same, and like a lot of us
right now. We are changing that for our
future Generations right now. Hard work is our currency.
Yeah, hard. Yeah, so and so by working hard
and working smart, which is what you're doing right now.
You allow the generation behind you to work creatively to work
out of a sense of overflow to not be stressed and think if I
don't, I'm not going to be able to pursue that, I'm not going to
be able to work in the lychee guy.
Any guy, icky guy. I'm glad to work in that spot.
It would be so great if you were able to be launched into the
world working in that zone, yeah.
Hi, that you can just go like this is where I started and to
have such a fulfilling career from the beginning.
And by doing this work for ourselves, we can then put that
next Generation onto the app in a different way, which I think
is really, really cool. So what is one thing?
If you could go back to yourself and say, are you sure your brand
new? What is one thing you would have
told her to hold onto piece of advice, you know, going forth
marching forward and thinking about all these ideas and one
thing you would tell her when you Hear this.
This is garbage. Throw it away.
So with one thing I hold onto one piece, throw it away as
crap. One laughs I'm sorry it's too
two things. I would hold onto is one people
meet you as deeply as they have met themselves.
So when you have that snotty-nosed care nurse on the
unit, who you just can't understand why she's so mean to
you, why she won't help you. That is truly hurt insides
coming out and maybe no one helped her, maybe her husband
cheated on her last week and still no excuse, but that has
nothing to do with you. You are not a bad nurse, you're
not a bad woman. You're not a bad man, they
whatever you identify as you are.
So worthy of someone treating you appropriately.
So that's something that I would keep.
Second thing I would keep is do not listen to a soul who has not
done what you're trying to do, but what comes out of their
mouth does not fucking matter. Yes, if someone's came out of
times they're doing less than you.
If so much criticizing you guys maybe than you did.
I hear some toasted? Any time on that?
Don't spit on top. They'll spend any time at all.
Yes, laughs inside yourself chuckle and move on.
The amount of times, I heard people who were not on TV, I see
you both are going to eat you up alive.
There, you're with me on the step down.
I don't know. What do you know about that?
I was here on a school so hard, you never gonna get in, they
tried three times to get in. Well, I got it on the first try,
that's cute. Like that stuff was noise to me,
all, you know, annoys call it, stubborn, whatever, like it was
laughable. So, those two things?
I would hold onto something. I would throw away or advice
anything that had fear in it. So anything, what?
I'm scared to do that. Wouldn't you be nervous?
Anything that is not. And I mean, this anything that
does not sound like, oh, that's a great idea.
Do you need help? Or, oh, have you met with
someone so they can maybe help you with this?
They've done something similar. If it doesn't sound like that, I
have no ears for it, friends. Family cousin.
I don't need to hear it. If you are not supporting me, it
can be the dumbest idea. Whatever that I mean, what Hey,
Tom, you could be like, I wanted like Thai people shoes for a
living. You better support me.
What's the business at least? What's the business plan?
Yes, at least I can seriously, but like it in the, you know,
I'm gonna help me that way.
Yes, but the fear-based conversation I No room for it.
Like it's a recession and ask millionaires, I don't take
advice from people who are not millionaires is no, I'm
seriously and it's not even on like the amount of money.
But I love it. Go to the people that are doing
it. Yeah, you still work five times
a week with overtime to maintain your bills.
No shade, no tea. But you are not, I can't take
advice from you. It's like if you're married and
there's your friend. Who has not had a long
relationship longer than a year. Trying to tell you how to be in
your marriage. Grandpa.
Yeah, so that's kind of like what I?
That's life advice. You're not where I'm not taking
your advice. That is so good.
I love that guys. That is again, put that in your
piggy bank store that because that is a piece of solid solid
money-making, advice, operating outside of fear.
And I had, there's this girl, I follow on Instagram name is
fearless Miranda. She's the CEO owner of street
parking, which is this CrossFit designed workout as she does to
come to comes up with it every week.
She sends you the workout. It's a great program.
I love it. I do it.
I've done it. My whole pregnancy.
She's got Mama support. So if you're in pregnancy mode,
she'll like send you special little workouts but her
Instagram handle is fearless Miranda.
And I like there's something about her Instagram handle that
just inspires me because every time she opens up histogram,
she's got Fearless Miranda at the top of it.
It's a constant reminder to stay away from living in fear because
it holds you back from things, it's state of police tricks.
You, it paralyzes you. It does nothing to grow you.
It only does everything to break you small.
And so, I literally have on my vision board right here live
without fear. I have it written right in front
of me because I love that advice so much.
And if we live without fear, if we moved into the areas that we
are afraid, I talk about this all the time, my podcast, you're
living. Right.
Move into areas where you're like afraid.
You never feel more alive you just because you're doing it
yourself, cooperate, when you're moving there, ya know.
That's such a, that's such good advice and the moment I
understood like what fear was, and how it manifested and showed
up at other people and how it is almost, it's their Mantra.
What you are saying is your Mantra?
So if you're over here, always I'm scared to blank your Gonna
be scared to do it. You're not yeah yeah.
So what are we saying? You know, we spell words out
like it's a spell. We are putting casting spells
when we speak, we are talking and loss of traction, I would
be. Yeah, well the attraction like
I'm terrified hate public speaking.
I hate going up in front of a podium in front of her room.
But I've been given the opportunity so many times to do
it, I'm like, well clearly I must be supposed to do it and so
I'm shaking. Like my voice quivers, but I
will do it. Anyways, do it every single
time. Yeah.
And I think that's also why I'm able to hop on the podcast now
and, um, yeah. That's a question.
Yeah. Well, we'll get there.
Yeah. And so, anyone listening that
acknowledge the fear is not to say that fear isn't a thing
because it is and there's Good Foot, Right?
Like there's good. How's your finger off, you know?
Yeah, there's healthy fear. There's things that like we
should acknowledge like you should be afraid to jump off a
bridge so that oh shit. This on and you just drop off
like that's probably Yeah, but at the same time, like think it
through like why do you want to jump off the bridge while it's
on my bucket list? Okay, well maybe we should get a
bungee cord, maybe we should do the things that are going to
help you make the right and so and so my fears around like
making the moves and the risk and people say oh it's risky and
all this other stuff nursing to me, is that bungee cord.
It's that harness. Its whoa, that's my safety net.
Come on girls. That I said, I mentioned earlier
actually what it is. Hit the fan, I will go pick up
an extra 10 shifts like that and I made the money back.
There was a point. I lost 11,000 dollars two years
ago, I invested into this bus thing that was I was going to
put on outdoorsy front of us. Yeah.
And you know, learned about contracts person, you know, we
made a verbal Compton didn't abide by it and I invested
eleven thousand dollars and he's like, well, you know, that's
After down payment and the contract says, blah blah, blah.
Oh this how y'all work. And there was a point where I
was like, either I can hold on to this money, this 11,000 or I
can release it and say it's going to come back to me.
It's a lot of money to me at the time.
No, it's a lot of money 11,000 a lot of money?
Yes, a lot of money. Yeah.
And I realize one day, I just sat there and I said I'm gonna
release it that money that 11,000.
I was going to come back around. And I think six months later, I
paid 18,000 dollars to get to a coaching course, put it on my
credit cards. And I opened up my first course,
like a line Hive and made 50,000 dollars, like coaching people,
and I just remember being like, OK, I have to, like, let things
go after let fear go. It was like such a lesson and
what you hold onto and grip. So tight, you can suck the life
out of it. And so releasing acknowledging
this because I was afraid I've never make any money.
I was afraid that was one of my worst fears is losing money.
Yeah. I'm gonna make a bad investment.
I'm going to lose money. Yeah, like money is so cyclical.
It's like a relation a I could talk all day or so.
Yeah. That was going to say.
There's like a lot of trauma on money that people.
Well, that's rude about this. Yeah, buddy.
Traumas. And like what we were growing up
here and we don't have money for that.
You know your mom would say we don't have we can't afford that
right now. Yeah your grandma grandpa would
stash money under their bed. Yeah like what a note on about
it too. I've heard of time and money
trying to raise my kid. With this idea of a can't have
stuff or where you know, he's like you can figure this out.
We can get it. Yeah, right mindset.
Then like we can't afford that then to go like, no, we can't.
It's just, we're going to have to do that is to do nothing for
it. Yes.
That's me right now. Fundraising for this is
Syndicate. Yeah.
Like there's been times when they're like, oh no we can't we
can't run that and it's like okay we gotta we're gonna find a
way to do this. Yes.
And it's pretty say that it's really inspiring.
He raises his daughter. Oh I need.
I need because that's That's my mindset.
That's how I operate like. I don't believe in a no, I don't
believe in can't like it's gonna work.
Yeah, someway somehow yes. And so I know there are a lot of
people who listen to these podcasts and they're like the
really fearful and I want to acknowledge that.
I get that a lot of. This is so scary, it's scary
when it's new. But I challenge people to think
if and ask themselves would you be okay in a year if you were
still in the same place doing the same exact thing?
That is one of the scariest things to me.
Yeah. Is this pack 365 days to go by
and I'm just doing the same thing?
Yeah, no, that's really good, that's really good because I
mean again, nature loves movement running Brooks, mmm,
moving trees. Everything is in some type of
changing a locks. And yeah, I've talked to so many
nurse practitioner, entrepreneurs, that say that
life is like a harpy. The reading on a Harley, the
tracing of an EKG that there's ups and there's downs, and
there's highs, and there's lows, and there's just these moments
and that's what your heart does, every single time it pumps.
And that, that Rhythm that you see on an EKG, essentially
rashes. And, oh, I could take that part
of physiology. That's beautiful.
Isn't that Russian soldier? Yes, it's awesome.
It's a theme in life. And so when you look at that
theme, you have to also realize that that is in business, that
that is in every moment, every facet That there's going to be
hyzers going to be losers, go home.
It's that you're just afraid. There's you g.
Do it anyway. And then there's okay.
And then it's not. Okay.
And then it's right. And that's the Journey of it.
Yeah. And it's the T wave and it's, I
mean, it's right here, it's so beautiful.
You see that beautiful themes, reverberate in different areas
of Our Lives. It's just, I could literally
talk to you all day because I feel like I are just so alive.
We had And so I want them to say things
about you. So here we go, grateful for in
the whole world. Hmm.
I think I am most grateful for. My health.
It keeps me clear. It keeps me able to see Vision.
Follow my senses. Follow my gut because what I'm
healthy and that's just not, you know, when I'm healthy, I'm able
to just fully take in all that is around me to make the
decisions to beat experience Seasons life, everything.
So I would say, most grateful for my health.
Love that answer. If you had to give a book to
someone to read which book would it be?
Mmm. Icky Guy.
This is light blue book and he started I Ki GA II.
Yeah, I will go to get the name because it yeah such an incident
to me and I'll put in the show today and then what do you find
is the best age to be? Mmm best age?
How's it going to sound how it's going to sound?
But I would say, Say the age, you are right now, really
accepting where you are. Not wishing you were younger,
not, wishing you were older, and really relishing the fact that
you get to be like, to ten toes down, like, waking up every day.
So, whatever age you are right now.
That's why you stopped taking that for.
Granted so, beautiful. Well said, oh my gosh!
It's in such a cat, like, eyes tear up because it's so
beautiful. It's true.
It's Ever you are right now. That's all you have is today.
All you have is so plant a seed, start looking into that real
estate, you know, how do I get funding for that?
How do I start doing that work today?
Plant the seed today so that you can be a different person 365
years ago. Be that person that is like, Hey
listen, I literally went from working five days at the
bedside. Burnt out tired, exhausted.
So now I do three days and I have way more bandwidth and I'm
able to do this at a big part time and I've come up with a
glasses line. I've come up with whatever it,
whatever it is, whatever it is, a nurse.
You want to open up your own nurse practitioner business and
you were searching Aesthetics start popping stops forgives,
whatever it is. That's you, that's in your what
is it that icky guy? Whatever.
Young guy is definitely grind it.
Yeah. And then where can people find
you? Because what if they're like,
okay, I need help finding my ikigai.
I need help understanding how to get started.
Where do they find you? How can you help them?
I want you to scare the Shameless plug.
Yeah, okay so if you I would first start on the ditch, the
bedside Network, I know the name is drawing or whatever it is.
But that is how I'm helping people create distance, from the
bedside distance, from really whatever Healthcare job that you
have and creating enough space to find the life's work.
Find your life's Mission. So ditch the bedside Network
it's on Mighty networks. But to get there, you can just
go to Aisha, Allen.com a ishaa, a llen.com Mom and I would
definitely follow myself on Instagram Aisha underscore or
CRNA. That's a i sha underscore CRNA
hit me up on messaging there now you know most of my DMs I answer
on the network I'm taking a little bit of a setback on my G.
I'm really pouring into the network aspect of things.
I'm in their monthly for a monthly session.
This 2023 theme is real estate and putting together your board
of advisers and like creating that path and One quick thing I
want to say to people is like, you don't have to this lifetime
is not meant for you to figure it all out.
If you just pass on the lessons to the Next Generation you have
done more than enough. Don't feel like you have to
build all this right now and do all of the things and leave your
kid, a Rolls-Royce and Range Rover pass on the lessons and
you have canalla change Next Generation.
Yeah yeah, yeah and it's funny because as you pass on the, let
the lessons you're going to find yourself.
Feeling a level of what I call false Integrity that as you talk
about it and you share with your children, what it needs to look
like and then you do something opposite you're going to find
yourself realizing I'm not being honest with my kid and it's
going to actually cause you to be accountable is what it's
going to end. Do it do and to do it and still
that. Yeah.
Just by just even talking about it and saying like Harry and
believe in and then you go off and do something different.
You're going to be like, you're going to notice the hypocrisy
and yourself. And it's going to cause you to
have to either stop talking about, it seems like parent
thing and having kids like so thank you better person.
It can tie some people or worse, they just they just stayed,
right? But if you are, you know,
someone that desires to be better and you want to show
better. And if you have that hardened,
you as you talk about it, it was just transform you because
that's how it is raised you talk about.
And again, you're talking to yourself, you're manifesting
your, we call it manifesting. Do you meditate on what?
You focus on what you figure, they don't want to call it.
It's all the same, it's that same concept of yet, focusing
fixating prayer. Yeah, it's the dreaming.
It's dreaming big. It's all the things I love it.
I have so enjoyed this conversation with you today was
easy. It was easy, it was chill.
It was like so organic. I'm super amazing.
Thank you. Oh, thank you.
Yeah, Mama to be again. I'm so excited.
I cannot wait. So tired but so excited.
So they are wrapping this up to, right?
You're wrapping your Calling it Quits on this for a little bit.
So I was going to but I don't, I don't know.
I like your style. That's the thing.
This is actually a joyful thing for me.
I enjoy meeting nurses. I enjoy having these
conversations. I enjoyed producing the content,
and I enjoy getting people to come back to me and say that was
super humble, like that. Like those messages for me.
Keep me going. And so The yeah.
If I if I end up needing to have an a major abdominal surgery to
have a baby again, then I will give myself time to heal and I
think that space is needed. I don't know what that's going
to look like and again because I've been so driven working,
part-time mommying and doing this side, hustle podcast, and
the other stuff I find that I have a feeling it's going to be
hard for me to turn it off because it's one of those things
you just grind. You just keep grinding stops.
You're like one way ticket so much time.
Yeah, like I have you like that but then I don't know how it's
going to be with the baby so I don't know.
It's a mental thing man, that has been so hard for me.
I've come home and tell my partner and I don't think I did
anything today and he's like smartest.
But you did this, you did this right there beside me down one
day and was like, girl, you're nuts.
But not like that, but yeah, no, it's true.
Like she does not like yeah, it's too much and that's and
that's the thing that I think because of I guess I think also
the probably armed Has raised, it was just like you just grab
describe. Go, go, go, grab whole nother.
We might have another podcast. That's like, maybe I'm one of
mine. One day, I would love that.
Invite me anytime. Like to come on in chat, we can
just chat and just be chilling. Yeah, let me know.
I mean, we're yes, we need more of these conversations and I
think, especially, and again, this is not even be able to
podcasts is just for me and you talk but especially with like
being African American and being other, you know, For Latino and
having these conversations. I'm so sick of here that I'm
underprivileged and all these different things.
