Another piece of the “Dr. Tooni” women’s health project: some different kinds of FOBs – the term used for “Father of the Baby” for a pregnant patient, since you can’t assume their relationship. Some are married, some are coupled, and others are just co-parenting. And now there are surrogates, donors, […]
Summary: My thoughts on the value of a “home,” and what a digital nomad’s home means. Just got off the phone with Dr. Mo of Digital Nomad Physician and feeling super inspired!! He is living life on his own terms and pursuing all his passions. Financial independence and early retirement […]
Another piece of the “Dr. Tooni” women’s health project: what to do if you’re having pregnancy contractions, and not sure if it’s real labor or “false labor”/Braxton-Hicks contractions.

Summary: Financial Independence, Retire Early (F.I.R.E/FIRE revolution), and how this was the life philosophy I never knew I had, all along. Happy 2020, everyone!! I can’t believe how quickly time has gone by. I haven’t posted in over 2 months!? A number of things happened, such as my tablet pen breaking […]
