In this episode, we have the pleasure of hosting student loan professional Emma Crawford, as we explore repayment philosophies, PSLF essentials, common pitfalls, and the best strategies for physicians, whether you're in academia, hospital-based, or private practice.
Whether you're just out of med school or deep into repayment, this episode includes practical insights to help you make smarter financial moves.
After graduating with her master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from the University of Minnesota in 2016, Emma was saddled with student loan debt. She felt overwhelmed and confused by the intricacies of the different repayment plans and Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) program but didn’t know who to contact or who to trust for help and support.
Knowing there had to be a better way, she dedicated her time and efforts toward becoming a financial planner to help others feel less alone as they navigate the complex world of federal student loan debt.
As a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professional, Certified Student Loan Professional®, and founder of October Loan Strategies, she creates fully customized student loan plans with concrete, step-by-step instructions to help clients minimize payments and maximize forgiveness.
So far, she has consulted on over $100 million in student loan debt and helped clients receive $10 million in student loan forgiveness - and has won a few awards along the way!

- Do we pay them off rapidly, or play the long game?
- What are some common student loan management strategies that are used for physicians in academic jobs? Hospital based? Private practice?
