Behind long hours, extended training pathways and delayed life milestones, many medical professionals are unknowingly trading time for certainty when it comes to family planning.Dr Taylor shares what she is seeing on the front lines of fertility care, including the growing use of ovarian reserve testing, egg freezing and fertility preservation. We explore how age remains the biggest factor affecting egg quality, why freezing eggs later in life often delivers disappointing outcomes, and how conditions like endometriosis can quietly reduce fertility well before symptoms become obvious.Whether you are early in your medical career or further along your training journey, this episode offers clear, evidence-based insights to help you plan ahead. It forms part of our broader focus on investing not just in finances, but in long-term life planning, bringing honest conversations and expert perspectives to decisions that shape both career and family.-----TIME STAMPS:00:00 Hook/Intro01:19 Introduction and Background of Dr. Becky Taylor03:29 Trends in Fertility and Fertility Preservation07:07 Ovarian Reserve Assessment and Fertility Preservation Advice11:50 Impact of younger eggs in ovarian reserves16:35 Impact of Endometriosis and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome on Fertility32:59 IVF Process and Egg Freezing46:28 Challenges and Considerations in Fertility Preservation48:34 Conclusion/Outro-----SHOW NOTES LINKShttps://ifdgroup.com.au/ https://doctorbi.com.au/ https://au.linkedin.com/in/mian-bidrbeckytaylor.com.auinstagram.com/dr.beckytaylorfacebook.com/drrebecca.beckytaylor-----LISTEN TO THE PODCASTSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/07DS5AxlbgmkuvP6zQGgtN Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/investing-for-doctors-podcast/id1775535608 Amazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/b9de46bc-e29d-4402-9e9e-959a3a5dc8da/investing-for-doctors-podcast -----FIND US HEREWebsite: https://ifdgroup.com.au/ Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/investingfordoctors Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/investingfordoctors -----DISCLAIMERThe information provided in this podcast is for general purposes only and should not be considered personal advice.

She also guides us through the realities of modern families, from step-parents and grandparents to teenagers who now have a stronger voice in their own arrangements.This second instalment goes deeper into the practical realities couples face once separation becomes a legal process, giving you the information most people only discover under pressure.-----TIME STAMPS:00:00 Intro/Hook01:40 Nadine’s background02:20 Components of Binding Financial Agreements03:49 Challenges and Updates in Binding Financial Agreements05:57 Impact of Binding Financial Agreements on Relationships11:05 Parenting Agreements and Orders12:42 Complexities in Blended Families and Grandparental Rights15:58 Alternative Dispute Resolution Methods18:41 Mediation and Its Benefits24:29 Challenges in Collaborative Approaches27:10 Parenting Orders and Child Agency38:05 Conclusion/Outro-----SHOW NOTES LINKShttps://ifdgroup.com.au/ https://doctorbi.com.au/ https://au.linkedin.com/in/mian-bihttps://www.linkedin.com/in/nadine-udorovic-7a7a619/https://nicholeslaw.com.au/-----LISTEN TO THE PODCASTSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/07DS5AxlbgmkuvP6zQGgtN Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/investing-for-doctors-podcast/id1775535608 Amazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/b9de46bc-e29d-4402-9e9e-959a3a5dc8da/investing-for-doctors-podcast -----FIND US HEREWebsite: https://ifdgroup.com.au/ Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/investingfordoctors Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/investingfordoctors -----DISCLAIMERThe information provided in this podcast is for general purposes only and should not be considered personal advice.

Dina explains why the classic three-month accelerator model does not work in healthcare, and why real progress relies on deep expertise, patient capital, and the right commercial and regulatory guidance at the right time.In this episode, Dina walks us through the hidden pathway from research discovery to investable company. From grants and non-dilutive funding, to prototyping support, to connecting founders with key opinion leaders, she shows how UNSW helps researchers and clinicians avoid the costly mistakes that slow down most med tech ventures. We also touch on the fast-growing opportunities in women’s health, cardiovascular disease and precision medicine, and why these areas are now attracting serious global interest.If you are a doctor looking to invest beyond property, or simply curious about how health startups get de-risked and scaled, this conversation will give you a clear window into the future of medical innovation in Australia.-----TIME STAMPS:00:00 Hook/Intro01:45 Dina Titkova's Role and UNSW Founders06:41 The Role of Accelerators in Deep Tech12:49 Case Studies of Health 10x Program Successes25:21 Challenges and Opportunities in Women's Health Innovation36:56 The Future of Health Innovation and Global Collaboration42:40 Conclusion/Outro-----SHOW NOTES LINKShttps://ifdgroup.com.au/ https://doctorbi.com.au/ https://au.linkedin.com/in/mian-bihttps://www.linkedin.com/in/dinatitkova/https://unswfounders.com/----- LISTEN TO THE PODCAST Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/07DS5AxlbgmkuvP6zQGgtN Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/investing-for-doctors-podcast/id1775535608 Amazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/b9de46bc-e29d-4402-9e9e-959a3a5dc8da/investing-for-doctors-podcast ----- FIND US HERE Website: https://ifdgroup.com.au/ Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/investingfordoctors Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/investingfordoctors ----- DISCLAIMER The information provided in this podcast is for general purposes only and should not be considered personal advice.

From malpractice and practice indemnity to property, management liability, and the rising threat of cyberattacks, she reveals how even well-insured doctors can still be dangerously exposed.We unpack why obstetrics and neurosurgery are among the most expensive specialties to insure, how Australia’s government-backed safety net keeps the system fairer than in the US, and what practice owners need to know before hiring staff or storing patient data online.Whether you’re starting your first private clinic or already running a busy practice, this episode will help you see insurance not as a box-ticking exercise but as a business survival tool.If you’ve ever assumed your indemnity has you covered for everything, this is the episode that might just save your practice.-----TIME STAMPS:00:00 Hook/Intro01:38 Lisa's Background02:27 Overview of Medical and Dental Insurance Ecosystem in Australia03:55 Specialty-Based Insurance Risk and Pricing05:20 Ogden Rates and Severity of Loss08:06 High-Risk Specialties and Litigation12:34 For-Profit vs. Membership-Based Organisations12:54 Medical Indemnity System in Australia18:44 Practice Indemnity and Its Importance25:58 Management Liability and Employment Practices28:24 Property and Business Interruption Insurance31:28 Cyber Security and Insurance44:35 Prevention and Preparedness45:17 Conclusion/Outro-----SHOW NOTES LINKShttps://ifdgroup.com.au/ https://doctorbi.com.au/ https://au.linkedin.com/in/mian-bihttps://www.linkedin.com/in/lisa-hiscock-7308a259/----- LISTEN TO THE PODCAST Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/07DS5AxlbgmkuvP6zQGgtN Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/investing-for-doctors-podcast/id1775535608 Amazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/b9de46bc-e29d-4402-9e9e-959a3a5dc8da/investing-for-doctors-podcast ----- FIND US HERE Website: https://ifdgroup.com.au/ Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/investingfordoctors Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/investingfordoctors ----- DISCLAIMER The information provided in this podcast is for general purposes only and should not be considered personal advice.
