I recently chatted with two different nurses who are experiencing this and I know they aren’t alone. I’ve been there myself.

I’m sharing my tips on shifts you can start making today in order to get where you’d like to be.    Be one of the first 10 people to enroll in ENM 2.0 (limited availability)   Join the Empowered Nurse Network   Let’s Connect:  https://theempowerednurse.org/ https://www.instagram.com/theempowerednurses/ https://www.instagram.com/laceymagen/

We all have an unpopular opinion or two and mine probably goes against what you’ve heard (or will hear) in nursing school which is that I’m of the belief that you can work while in nursing school.

We discuss pros and cons, practicing discernment to decide if it’s right for you, finding the right role, and more.   Take the Nurse Personality Type Quiz Join the Empowered Nurse Network   Let’s Connect:  https://theempowerednurse.org/ https://www.instagram.com/theempowerednurses/ https://www.instagram.com/laceymagen/
