Income Protection Journal Podcast
Surgeon Realizes His Hands Are His Livelihood [Podcast]
When I spoke with board-certified trauma surgeon Dr. Nii Darko, DO, MBA, FACS for this episode of The Income Protection Journal Podcast, he started with a moment humiliating in its simplicity. He was cutting up a hospital mattress his town's local rubbish service wouldn't pick up, put a little too much tension on one finger, and felt what he described as a rubber band snapping. The next day he was supposed to drive four hours for a locums assignment. Instead, he went to urgent care, learned he had torn a ligament, and was told a wire would be drilled into...

Cat Bite Ends Veterinarian’s Career [Podcast]
Disability coverage for veterinarians is often treated like something you think about later, after the practice is stable, after the loans feel manageable, after life quiets down. In my conversation with Dr. Michelle Custead, a board-certified veterinary medical oncologist and practice owner, what stood out was how rarely “later” arrives on schedule — and how quickly an ordinary day can turn into a career interruption that no one planned for. Custead runs Ally Veterinary Specialty Center, a boutique referral practice in Waltham, Massachusetts. When we started talking about disability risk, she didn’t begin with dramatic scenarios. She began with the temperam...

His Disability Policy Looked Fine — Until a Claim Tested It [Podcast]
I went into this conversation expecting to talk about claims the way most people imagine them: paperwork, delays, frustration, maybe a denial that needs to be appealed. What I didn’t expect was how quickly the discussion shifted to something more unsettling—the realization that many people buy disability insurance believing they’re protected, only to discover years later that the policy language quietly gives the insurer a way out. In this episode of The Income Protection Journal Podcast, I talk to Mark DeBofsky, an ERISA litigation attorney with more than four decades of experience challenging insurer and plan-administrator benefit denials...

The Disability Insurance Window Most Physicians Don’t See Closing [Podcast]
A physician told me he thinks about disability insurance for physicians the same way he thinks about a dashboard warning light: by the time it flashes, you’re already behind the ball. That line landed harder than I expected, because it came from someone who lives on the other side of the exam room. In a recorded conversation for The Income Protection Podcast, I spoke with Dr. Isheet Patel, a board-certified internal medicine physician and co-founder of a concierge practice in Lone Tree, Colorado. I went into the interview looking for a straightforward answer to a simple question: what actually takes...

When Disability Insurance Leaves High Earners Exposed [Podcast]
There’s a point in some careers when protection that once felt solid starts to feel thin. Nothing has gone wrong yet. No diagnosis. No accident. Just a quiet realization that the numbers no longer line up the way you assumed they would. That tension came up repeatedly in my recent conversation on The Income Protection Podcast, where I sat down with Tom Petersen, a senior partner at Petersen International Underwriters. We weren’t setting out to talk about physicians specifically. We were talking about athletes, entertainers, founders, and people whose income behaves in unconventional ways. But the further we went...

Why High Earners Are Quietly Underinsured—and Don’t Find Out Until It’s Too Late with Tom Peterson
Some of the most interesting insurance solutions are built after someone is told “no.” Tom Petersen shares stories from the specialty market that reveal how income protection works when traditional disability insurance falls short. Traditional disability insurance wasn’t built for elite earners. In this episode of The Income Protection Podcast, Jamie Fleischner sits down with Tom Petersen of Petersen International Underwriters to explain how specialty disability insurance fills the gaps left by traditional coverage. They discuss income caps, excess coverage, and the unique challenges of protecting athletes, entertainers, ultra-high-income professionals, and those with complex or pre-existing health conditions. If your i...

The Scan He Wasn’t Supposed to See [Podcast]
Disability insurance for physicians is easy to think about in abstract terms until the moment your own health forces the issue. I was reminded of that in a recent episode of THE Income Protection Podcast, when I spoke with Dr. Peter Crane, a rural family physician in Idaho, about the night he accidentally opened his own CT scan while working an emergency department shift. I’m Jamie Fleischner, CLU, ChFC, LUTCF, and I host the podcast. Over the years, I’ve spoken with countless physicians about income risk, but this conversation unfolded differently from the start. Peter wasn’t sitting in a w...

Why Midlife Income Protection Depends More on Timing Than Assets [Podcast]
Most people in their fifties and early sixties think income protection means safeguarding earnings during their working years. But on the latest Income Protection Podcast, MassMutual’s Marcus Watson explains why the real pressure point comes later — when income stops, responsibilities continue, and the financial path a family takes depends entirely on which version of the future arrives first. The sequence of events, not just the events themselves, is what determines whether a household preserves savings, absorbs a major care expense, or unintentionally jeopardizes the legacy they’ve spent decades building. That friction between uncertainty and planning is why income protec...

Most High-Income Professionals Are Underinsured — And Don’t Realize It [Podcast]
As a disability-insurance specialist, I meet high-earning professionals every day who carefully insure their homes, cars and health needs, yet overlook the one asset that makes everything else possible: their income. The ability to get up in the morning and earn a living underpins every financial decision a household makes. When that ability disappears, even temporarily, the effects are immediate and far-reaching. That reality is at the heart of a conversation I’m having on the latest episode of the Income Protection Podcast, produced by Income Protection Journal. I’m speaking with Michael Sir, the president and co-founder of One Protect...
