from The Successful Nurse Coaches ™

In today’s episode, Laura shares how her experiences with burnout, chronic illness, and the limitations of traditional healthcare led her from ICU nursing to nurse coaching. She introduces the concept of "soft nursing," a proactive, relationship-based approach that focuses on root causes and whole-person healing rather than crisis management.Laura also challenges the idea of work-life balance, advocating instead for a life aligned with purpose and personal values. She offers an honest look at the realities of building a coaching practice and encourages nurses to explore new possibilities without feeling pressured to make an all-or-nothing leap.Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/ps95nkxGOJMConnect with us:Instagram: @successfulnursecoachesWebsite: www.thesuccessfulnursecoaches.comMentioned in this episode:NCR + Cohort 8https://www.nurselifecoachacademy.com/
