Lead the Way in Nurse Life Coaching: Become a Board Certified Nurse Life Coach through our Top-Tier Online Course (and we include an additional FULL Business Course!)
Hundreds of nurse coaches have trusted us with their private practice and we have helped Nurse Coaches earn over 4.8 million dollars in revenue. Now, they’re happier, wealthier, and making a huge impact in the lives of their clients.
We aim to bring that same transformation into The Nurse Life Coach Academy. Our Program teaches you the best information on how to specifically (and holistically) support your clients with confidence.
We teach with the end in mind. This isn't just a class with theory, we support students to learn how to monetize their coaching skills from Day 1!
BUT HERE’S THE REALITY EVERY NURSE KNOWS:

FACILITATE HEALING VS SYMPTOM MANAGEMENT
Help your clients create and maintain long-lasting change in their lives. Go to sleep feeling like you are living your purpose.

BE WITH YOUR CLIENTS
Practice nursing in a way that isn't rushed, or for symptom management. Take your time and help your clients HEAL!

ELEVATE
YOUR IMPACT
Instead of remaining a cog in the wheel of a broken system, be a part of the change necessary to revolutionize healthcare. Whether private practice or the head of your organizations Nurse Coach Department.

Nursing Needs An Upgrade.
Every nurse knows that healthcare’s challenges go far beyond pizza parties and pointless staff meetings that solve nothing.
The reality? Traditional nursing often leaves us burned out, overwhelmed, and stuck in a system offering little support and even less hope for meaningful change.
But nurse coaching is changing the game. It’s not just about improving healthcare—it’s about empowering nurses to reclaim their purpose, rewrite their stories, and master the skills to transform their lives and their profession.
Students include Deans of Nursing, Director's of Nursing, PhD Graduates, FNP, NP, MSN, BSN, and Associates prepared nurses with more than 40 years of experience.
Imagine A System With Supported Nurses
Nurses are known for being insanely smart, wonderful life-saving multitaskers, and fierce patient advocates, sacrificing their well-being for their patients, going without food and water for 12 hours at a time.
This is often what is "required" of nurses to work in patient care.
"If I don't do this, who will?"
As nurses, we derive deep meaning in our work, it is a significant piece of our identity, but what happens when our identity is tied to a broken system?
In the Nurse Life Coach Academy, we will spend time tending to you, your needs and dreams, and your visions for your future so that you can take your clients through this journey and know the path yourself.

A Letter From Your Leaders...
LAURA MINARD AND SHELBY KURZ MET IN THEIR NURSE COACH CERTIFICATION.
Laura Minard and Shelby Kurz met in their nurse coach certification in 2018 as peer coaches. Years later they joined forces and began helping certified nurse coaches through business mentorship.
After four years of helping hundreds of nurse coaches, we began to see the gap between the health coaching type training and what private practice nurse coaches were actually practicing. Holistic Life Coaching describes what 90% of private practice nurse coaches are doing, and Life Coaching is a better skillset to have in organizations.
In true Laura and Shelby fashion we met one day and said, "I think we need to create the Nurse Life Coach Academy". Every step of its creation, launch, and announcement was met with expectation and excitement from nurses all over the country!
WITH LOVE,
LAURA MINARD & SHELBY KURZ
