My business is evolving again… and this next step feels exciting, aligned, and honestly a little scary. In this episode of Life After Nursing School, I talk about why I’m starting to pitch my workshops to nursing schools and how my nursing career keeps changing in ways I never expected.

We talk about:
• Career growth as a nurse
• Imposter syndrome when you put yourself out there
• Becoming a nurse entrepreneur
• Teaching, speaking, and coaching nursing students
• How to know when your career is evolving
• Following your strengths instead of staying comfortable

I also share how working as a clinical instructor helped me realize that education, career coaching, and helping new nurses navigate the job market might actually be part of my purpose.

If you’re a nursing student, new grad nurse, or experienced nurse feeling called to do more, this episode will remind you that growth often feels uncomfortable, but that doesn’t mean you’re on the wrong path.

What does success really look like as a nurse?

Is it working in the ICU, ER, or going back to school to become a nurse practitioner… or is that just what we’ve been told success should look like?

In this episode of Life After Nursing School, we talk about the pressure nurses feel to chase high-stress specialties, advanced degrees, and job titles that sound impressive… even when they don’t lead to happiness or work-life balance.

We’ll cover:
• Nursing burnout and career pressure
• How your definition of success changes over time
• Why more money or higher titles don’t always mean fulfillment
• How to build a nursing career that fits your life

If you’re a nursing student, new grad, or experienced nurse questioning your path, this episode will help you redefine success in nursing (on your terms).

Thinking about starting a side hustle as a nurse?
In this episode, I talk about what it really looks like to build something outside of bedside while still working in nursing.

We cover:
• Why nurses are uniquely positioned to start side hustles
• How to figure out what you actually want to build
• What the beginning of a side hustle really looks like (hint: not overnight success)
• My personal story of starting a business while working as a nurse
• How side hustles can give you more flexibility, creativity, and career options

Over the past few years, I’ve met so many nurses who started businesses, passion projects, or extra income streams without quitting their jobs.

If you’ve ever felt like you want more freedom in your career but still want the stability of nursing, this episode will show you what’s possible.
