I will give you the tips, tools and resources needed to overcome the habit of feeding your emotions and instead start fueling your body to create energy, mental clarity, and the confidence that comes when you feel sexy in your scrubs again! Your time is valuable and as a self proclaimed time management nerd I'm going to empower you to find the time to care for yourself so that you can focus on what's most important to you while avoiding overwhelm.

    The topic of money can feel intimidating and even if you know that you should be protecting yourself and your future regarding your money, you may not know where to start. I’m excited to introduce you to my new friend Mindy Parman, Financial Associate with Thrivent. She's giving us some tips on where to start, what questions to ask, and what mistakes to avoid! I hope you enjoy our conversation! Mindy graduated with her PharmD from University of Tennessee Health Science in 2010 determined to serve pediatric patients. Post graduate training includes completing a PGY1 and PGY2 in pediatrics and earning her BCPS and BCPPS designations. She worked as a pediatric clinical pharmacists in the NICU, critical care units as well as in the general pediatric units covering all sorts of patients for over 10 years. Gradually, the dissatisfaction and being limited in how she could support patients and corporate disregard for patient safety, Mindy started to search for how she could use her passion to help others with her attention to detail, her desire to educate and empower other women, and also longing to form longer lasting relationships with those she served. God had been planting financial resources in her path for many years, but Mindy started to wake up to the possibility of partnering with clients and help them achieve financial clarity. Mindy transitioned from helping with medication to helping with money as a fully licensed financial professional. Pharmacists ensure the right medicine, at the right time, the right dose, and the right patient. As a financial professional serving pharmacists, Mindy works with clients to help ensure the right plan, at the right time, the right goals specific to each uniquely individual client providing clarity to your financial journey. Mindy is from Franklin, TN, but now resides in Charlotte, NC to be near family especially her 3 nieces. She has 2 Siamese rescues, Mercy and Grace. She loves Disney and running the Princess Half Marathon in Disney every year since 2014.
