Dr. Krygowski is not only a blogger, but also a physician, author of a non-fiction book on physician finance, and an aspiring fiction writer, too. Add mother, (doctor’s) wife, and world traveler to her list of hats. She’s a busy woman with a story worth sharing.

She first emailed me to introduce herself and share gratitude for the introduction to our now-mutual-friend Jillian Johnsrud. Not long after, we found ourselves at a potluck dinner in her living room, spending the night at their place while on vacation in their neighborhood. I hope you’ll enjoy getting to know her as well as we have! Without further ado…

An Interview With B.C Krygowski

What is your specialty or subspecialty and why did you choose it? If you could turn back time, would you choose to practice medicine and choose the same specialty? Why?

I’m an inpatient Palliative Care Physician. Ever since I learned what Hospice was in medical school, I knew that eventually, I’d become a Hospice and Palliative Medicine Physician. I’ve just always felt this calling deep in my soul to work with the seriously ill and dying.

Describe your blog and tell us why your blog would appeal to a physician seeking FIRE in eleven sentences.

The tag line for my blog is “Helping you Aspire to FIRE from a dual physician perspective.” There’s a dearth of FIRE blogs out there from dual physician couples, let alone female physicians. I’m the one who mostly blogs on the site, but DH (Dear Husband) blogs on occasion.

I like the perspective he brings to the site as we approach financial issues from different perspectives. He’s the Bogleheader and I’m the frugalista. We’ve also written openly and honestly about some of our struggles that led us to go down the FIRE-life path.
