My Parents Want Me To Be a Doctor, What If I Don't? | EP 30

Did you choose to become a doctor? Or was it something your parents have always dreamed you would be? Are good intentions enough? These are some of the many questions we tend to ask ourselves when we are faced with a dilemma with different levels of parental pressure and shaping our lives. In today's episode, we discuss common scenarios we can find ourselves in with our parents, and how can we overcome the pressure from expectations and pursue our dream career paths and life goals.

Loved this podcast. Almost every Indian / Asian kid needs to watch it. Especially if they plan on taking medicine as a career 😅Thankyou so much Justin. You’re quite mature and intelligent in a weird way. Need more of it.😅

I’m not an immigrant, but working in health care myself, I would NEVER recommend it to my own kids (too much debt and moral injury involved). I did encourage them to study engineering because there are so many different job options available with that degree.I have told them “once you can support yourselves financially, you can do whatever you want. Go back to school, travel, etc”
