Episode Summary

Asking for and getting a raise can make a massive difference in your financial plan, not just today, but for years and even decades to come.

For many pharmacists, the thought of walking into their boss’s office and asking for more money can feel as unpleasant as getting a cavity filled. It’s uncomfortable, awkward, and full of “what ifs”: What if they say no? What if I ruin the relationship? What if they think I’m being greedy?

The truth is, most people never get a big raise for one simple reason: they never ask. And that “ask” isn’t just about adding dollars to your paycheck. It’s about building confidence and advocating for the value you bring to your role.

In this episode, YFP Co-Founder & CEO, Tim Ulbrich, PharmD, breaks down a five-step playbook with practical examples, real-world negotiation tips, and a few favorite strategies from Chris Voss’s Never Split the Difference. Whether you’re aiming for your first raise or looking to boost your income long term, this episode gives you the tools to confidently ask for and actually get the raise you deserve.
