Feeling financially stuck despite making a good income? Tim Ulbrich, PharmD, unpacks three common reasons pharmacists hit a financial plateau and how to reframe your thinking about money, income, and possibility.

Episode Summary

Do you ever feel like, despite making a good income, you should be further along financially?

You’ve got the degree, the stable job, the six-figure salary…but you’re not making the progress you hoped for. You feel stuck, and you’re wondering why.

In this episode of the Your Financial Pharmacist Podcast, YFP Co-Founder & CEO Tim Ulbrich, PharmD, explores three common reasons many pharmacists feel financially stuck, even with a strong income:

• A fixed mindset that limits your financial potential

• A fixed income that hasn’t kept up with inflation or your goals

• Fixed costs that quietly chip away at your freedom and options

This isn’t just a conversation about budgeting or side hustles. It’s about changing how we think about money, income, and what's possible.

Whether you're early in your career or feeling stuck mid-way through, this episode will help you gain clarity and take actionable steps toward financial progress.
