5 Reasons Regulatory Writing Changed Everything for Me
I didn’t expect writing to give me freedom, purpose, and a way to use my clinical skills—but it did.
Hey Future Regulatory Writer,
Today, I want to tell you why I can't stop talking about regulatory medical writing.
It’s the career that changed everything for me.
And if you’re wondering why I’m so passionate about it, here are five reasons I think it’s worth paying attention to:
#1 – It helped me pay off $96,000 in student loans in just 9 months
Not instantly.
Not effortlessly.
But this field gave me the earning potential that made financial progress finally feel possible.
#2 – I finally have flexibility in my day
No rigid shifts.
No missing family events.
I work remotely, on a schedule that works for me.
#3 – I get to help patients in a different way
What I write supports drug development that can impact thousands of lives.
I never expected writing to give me this kind of reach.
I have the opportunity to impact so many lives…
Even more than I could have as a clinician.
#4 – My clinical experience actually matters here
When trying to find an alternative career path as a clinician, sometimes you have to start over.
That is not the case in this industry.
My clinical experience is not something I have to downplay or hide. It’s what makes me valuable in the first place.
#5 – The people in this field are mission-driven and incredibly smart
They care about clarity, ethics, science, and doing work that helps people. I never feel like I’m just clocking in.
Which reason resonated with you the most? Let me know!
If any of those reasons speak to you, I created the Regulatory Medical Writing Career Masterclass as a way to help others get started.
It’s the resource I wish I’d had 10 years ago when I was trying to figure out what came next.
And if you know someone who wants to make money through writing, or a burned-out clinician looking for a new direction, send them this newsletter. It might be exactly what they need.
