As a nurse, you already have training in what it takes to be a coach.

 

There is no group of professionals better equipped to be a life coach, to walk alongside clients as they undergo deep-level transformation.

You have held the hands of dying patients, you have comforted strangers after a hard diagnosis, you have worked impossible shifts under critical conditions and seen the other side.

And the result?

Nurses are the most emotionally intelligent life coaches in the industry. There is nothing your client could say that would take you by surprise, that would be "too much", or that would scare you away. You can explore the depths of human nature with your clients and not be afraid to go there.

Your background in healthcare sets you apart from the rest of the industry, it is an essence that your clients can feel when they are in session with you, the ultimate-non-judgemental-safe-space for clients to explore the depths of their being, leading to true transformation.

Want to hear what real nurse coaches have to say about nurse coaching?

 

"You support your clients to make deep, long-lasting changes in their lives. From making better choices, setting and achieving goals, and living in true alignment with their values...all of which leads to a healthier and more fulfilling life! And you do all that while creating more health, happiness, and fulfillment in your own life and practice."

- Rachel Dick Plonka

"Nurse coaching has let me care for people on MY terms and in a way that allows for freedom for myself & clients, not based on our healthcare system terms or on whether or not a patient declined a heparin shot that they probably didn't need any more”

- Alyssa Hermann RN BSN NC BC

DOES ANY OF THIS SOUND FAMILIAR?

  • You put on a brave face for your shift and try to survive it.

  • You've forgotten what it is like to be excited by your career, left wondering "Is this it?"

  • You know you cannot continue down the traditional nursing path for much longer.

  • The other traditional professional paths (Master's Degree, NP School, CRNA) don't appeal to you as they don't solve the root problem

If any of that resonates, you’re not alone – welcome to Nurse Coach Life Academy.
