Direct answer: Career Design, Not Side Hustle—educational context for cardiologists exploring locum tenens. Locum Career Hub recruits MD/DO cardiologists and connects you with hospitals and groups when mutual fit exists.

Language shapes behavior
Side hustle implies extraction. Career design implies boundaries.
Choose language carefully.
Portfolio examples
Employed + rare locums; teaching + clinic; imaging reads + consults.
Write constraints first.
Guardrails
Contracts, malpractice, sleep caps.
Money without judgment is a bad trade.
