Welcome back to our monthly fireside chat with a physician to get to know their journey, their joys, and their struggles with finances and outside of finances.
Our next guest is a board-certified anesthesiologist working both in academic/private hospitals in Los Angeles. She is an entrepreneur, an author and a mother of two and a wife. Where does she find the time?
In an attempt to raise money for her start-up, she accepted the challenge and opportunity to compete as a castaway on the hit reality TV show Survivor. She was on the hit TV show during season 5 of Shark Tank.
Edna has written three children’s books which celebrate cultural and racial diversity.
Outside of the operating room, Edna attempts to balance work, life, and being mother/wife. I bet she has some tips we all could use for work-life balance.
Please help me welcome Dr. Edna Ma!

[…] Podcasts are a great way to learn but I also realized that I should be using them to promote as well. I made a list of ones that would be a good fit for both myself and the podcast itself, and I just emailed or tweeted them. Well, it worked because I’ve been on a few, and I have other episodes on which I will be on promoting my book and talking about self-publishing. It’s been great publicity. The most recent one I did was with Dave Denniston on his show, Doctor Freedom Podcast. […]
