261: Why Nurse Coaching? Building a Practice That Changes Lives (Part 1)
What if you could help people in the way you’ve always wanted to as a nurse, while creating a career with more freedom, flexibility, and purpose?
In Part 1 of Laura’s masterclass, she breaks down what nurse coaching is, how it differs from traditional nursing and therapy, and why it can be a rewarding path for nurses who feel limited by the current healthcare system. Drawing from her own journey into private practice, Laura addresses common concerns about certification, imposter syndrome, finding paying clients, and starting a business without a business background.
She also shares why serving your community, building coaching skills, and growing through referrals can be the foundation of a successful nurse coaching practice.
