Send us Fan MailIn this episode of the Life After Nursing School Podcast, we’re talking about one of my favorite end-of-year rituals: choosing a Word of the Year to guide your mindset, career decisions, and personal growth. Instead of relying on rigid New Year’s resolutions, I’m sharing how a single, intentional word has shaped my confidence, my nursing career, my business, and the way I move through life.We’ll reflect on what worked this year, what didn’t, and how to choose a word that supports where you’re headed in 2026—especially if you’re a new nurse navigating overwhelm, burnout, imposter syndrome, or big career transitions. I’m also walking you through the pivotal moments, spiritual insights (yes, we talk astrology!), and real-life examples that helped me land on my word for 2026.By the end of this conversation, you’ll feel inspired to choose a word that aligns with your goals, honors your energy, and helps you step into the most grounded, confident, and intentional version of yourself in the new year.Whether you're a nursing student, a new grad nurse, or a nurse exploring your next chapter, this episode will give you clarity, direction, and a fresh perspective on how to approach 2026 with purpose. Connect with Nurse Coach Caroline:Instagram →⁠ @NurseCoachCaroline⁠TikTok →⁠ @NurseCoachCaroline⁠Website →⁠ nursecoachcaroline.com⁠Please consider following and/or rating the show or leaving a review if you feel inspired by the show!
