In this episode, we explore Abby’s inspiring journey as a soon-to-be nurse practitioner with a bold plan to open her own practice before even graduating. At just 28, Abby is proving that you don’t need decades of experience to succeed in the world of niche wellness services like weight loss and HRT. We discuss why these kinds of practices are accessible even to new grads, the basic clinical skills that really matter, and how confidence and smart decision-making can make all the difference. If you're a new NP, RN, or someone considering this path, this episode offers valuable reassurance and a dose of motivation to get started sooner than you think.
