How Investing In Myself Made Me Wealthier Than Nursing Ever Could (The Hard Truth)
Description
Here’s a hard truth most nurses won’t like: nursing will never make you wealthy. In this raw
and eye-opening episode, I share the exact investments I made that helped me generate over $700K online — and why staying "safe" is actually the riskiest financial decision you can make.
From my first $9K group program to over $100K invested in coaching, business strategy, and
mindset, I’ll walk you through every decision I made and how each one unlocked a new level of income, impact, and freedom.
If you’re a nurse who's tired of trading time for money and you know there’s more waiting for you — this episode will show you what’s truly possible.
