Welcome to the “Hey Rx Friends, We Got This!” podcast where we share our thoughts on the pharmacy profession, experiences as healthcare providers, and explore our identities as two women of color going after it all.
We met during our entrepreneurial journeys. Our shared interest in becoming business owners and rejecting the traditional roles of pharmacy led to a friendship and now this collaboration. Our shared passion for helping others has given life to this beautiful podcast.
As we share our stories, we hope you laugh, maybe cry, and feel inspired, as you get to know us.
Didn't match for residency? Here's why you'll be just fine

Five Key Takeaways
1. Resilience and perseverance are essential when facing setbacks, whether it's not matching for a residency or struggling in a new job. Giving yourself grace and support can help you bounce back.
2. Maintaining a strong identity and interests outside of pharmacy can prevent burnout and provide balance, even as your career progresses.
3. Taking risks and stepping out of your comfort zone, like sharing your work publicly, can lead to unexpected opportunities for growth and connection.
4. Career transitions, even if they involve a step back, can open the door to fulfilling new paths that align with your values and aspirations.
5. Navigating personal loss and challenges requires tapping into your inner strength and faith, while also leaning on your support system. There is often purpose in the difficult moments.
