Owning the building may be more powerful than working inside it.
That’s the revelation Dr. Chiagozie Fawole had when she looked around the hospital and realized true freedom wasn’t just about earning more. It was about owning more.
In this high-energy episode, Dr. Felecia Froe pulls back the curtain on how Dr. Fawole, a physician-turned-investor, took her on-call hours and turned them into a real estate portfolio that now funds her freedom.
From flipping homes in residency to launching a real estate coaching business for doctors, Dr. Fawole shares how mindset, strategy, and bold action created generational change, and how other professionals can do the same.
