81: Building a Business as a New Nurse Coach- Whitney Distefano BSN, RN, NC-BC “As a new business owner in the community, it's just been one learning opportunity after another, and truly just like a practice of vulnerability, of showing up and putting yourself out there and really doing the best I can to be detached from the outcome, which is what they teach us as Nurse Coaches as well. Showing up day in and day out, and knowing that, you're gonna find things that you don't know how to do, you're going to find that there are questions you didn't even know were questions. And just having to come back to the attitude that, everything is figure out-able.” ~Whitney Distefano BSN, RN, NC-BCAh Ha MomentsIt’s absolutely vulnerable to be a new business owner, especially because Nurses are never taught how to be entrepreneurs. And yet, we can still show up and be open to the possibilities!Everything is ‘figure-out-able’. And we can ask for help, and be detached from the outcomes, as best we canBe clear on your personal vision and values, as those will be instrumental in you showing up for the world in your true, authentic way, and your ability to align with how you are being of serviceBegin with one step at a time. You don’t have to do it all right away. Find the things you think will have the most impact and begin there.

"Nurses are so well suited for psychedelics, and we bring so many skill sets that other disciplines don't, and I don't think any one discipline has it all, but I think we bring a really important piece of the puzzle. And if you think about it, Nurses are with patients in non ordinary states of consciousness, sometimes every day. If you're a hospice Nurse or working in labor and delivery, if you're in Psych, if you're working with patients, you know, coming in and out of anesthesia, patients with delirium. So many reasons why somebody could be an altered state or even just shock trauma. You know, emergency Nursing. And Nurses often are with patients for prolonged periods of time. You know, offering their caring, healing presence." ~ Dr. Stephanie Van Hope DNP, RN, NC-BCAh-Ha MomentsPsychedelic medicine is becoming more mainstream, and Nurses are stepping up willingly to lead and support their patients, clients and communitiesNurses are perfectly aligned to lead and work in psychedelic medicine as they are often with patients in altered states of consciousness throughout a shiftSacred medicine, also connected to entheogens, because they can help create a link to God within or to experience God within and the use of rituals and traditions to connect with the DivineNurses, you can absolutely take your passions and your knowledge and use both to create courses, programs, concepts and ideas that you know in your heart and will support fellow humans (and yourself) on life’s journeyLinks and ResourcesIntegrative Nurse Coaches in ACTION! podcastIntegrative Nurse Coach Certificate Program Link to Return to Roots Course with Stephanie... https://holisticpsychedelicnurse.com/returntorootsAJN Psychedelics Article: Penn, A., Dorsen, C.

Together We Can Stop Shame and Blame in Nursing-Kristy Meyer RN, BSN, NC-BC Highlights“I feel like self-care is often discussed in a way like, well, you're burned out, it’s because you're not doing self-care, or you're burned out, that means you're not resilient.And I feel like there's a lot of shame and blame in there, when really, we work in really tough environments, and we see really hard things, and a lot of times we have a lot of defensive mechanisms, I believe, like shielding ourselves from that, not feeling some of the feelings, and that's a good skill at times, because that's what you need to do to get through your work shift.But internalizing a lot of feelings and not taking care of your own basic needs just leads to a lot of health problems for us as Nurses.” ~Kristy Meyer RN, BSN, NC-BCAh Ha MomentsShame and blame are evident in discussions about self-care. Like the things you’re doing daily to help yourself aren’t good enough. It’s important to change that narrativeIt’s easier for Nurses to receive assistance when they can connect with a fellow Nurse, especially for health and wellness coachingIt can be difficult for Nurses to identify they are burned out and need help, because they are sooo good at caring for othersYou are powerful beyond measure and have the capacity to healLinks and ResourcesIntegrative Nurse Coach Academy INCCP CourseIntegrative Nurse Coaches in ACTION! podcastCultivating Shifts Integrative Health Nurse Coaching and EducationKristy's emailKristy's Facebook*****Integrative Nurse Coach Academy I Integrative Nurse Coach FoundationWe provide nurses with a global community for learning, networking, and reconnecting.

“There's this movement to improve more wellness, more lifestyle approaches. And our body was designed to heal itself, if we can only learn to listen to it. And to be able to go out there and help one another and make a difference.” ~Linda Coogan BSN, NC-BC, MSHA, FACHEAh Ha MomentsLifestyle practices like tai chi, contemplative prayer and more can help you move through the challenges of grief or even lifeWE are the ‘other’ Nurses you’re looking for!Using the skills and tools of Integrative Nurse Coaching anywhere you are in the world, shifts the way you show up and how others receive youGrief can lead you to new ways of living and loving othersWho better for advocacy initiatives than a Nurse?!Links and ResourcesIntegrative Nurse Coaches in ACTION! podcastIntegrative Nurse Coach AcademyAlaQuest Collaborative for EducationNurse Linda KayAlaQuest Integrative CoachingLinda's email*****Integrative Nurse Coach Academy I Integrative Nurse Coach FoundationWe provide nurses with a global community for learning, networking, and reconnecting.
