What happens when a healer decides healing the system matters just as much as healing the patient?
Clinician-scholar Ramy Mitwalli joins host Taymeyah Al-Toubah for a raw, thoughtful conversation about the intersection of medicine, money, and meaning. With multiple master’s degrees across healthcare and business—and medical training in Europe—Ramy brings a rare perspective on how financial literacy, leadership, and empathy can (and must) coexist in modern medicine.
Why hit play:
- Hear how a personal tragedy reshaped Ramy’s faith, outlook, and purpose—and why mindset became his greatest medicine.
- Learn why he believes financial literacy should be a core clinical skill, not an afterthought.
- Get his take on the burnout epidemic, and how corporatization and administrative overload are breaking the people medicine needs most.
- Explore the hidden costs of student debt—and how tuition-free programs are changing the specialties future doctors choose.
- See how interdisciplinary education could rebuild trust and balance in a system driven by profit instead of purpose.
- Find out why he thinks universal basic coverage and preventative care—not reactive medicine—should be our next moonshot.
- Stick around for the fun stuff: his comfort shows (Peaky Blinders, House of Cards, Chicago Med, and the underrated The Pit), his least favorite food, and which “conspiracy theory” he kind of believes in.
- Take away his parting advice: pair discipline with kindness, lead with respect, and never lose sight of intention.
