ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
A podcast for nurses who want to explore the many specialties and career paths within nursing.
Nursing school teaches us how to be nurses, but when it comes to careers, most of us are only introduced to a handful of specialties, often based on chance conversations or limited clinical experiences. Beyond that, we are expected to figure the rest out on our own. That is often where uncertainty about what comes next begins.
Whether you’re a nurse, nursing student, or aspiring nurse, this podcast exists to expand that awareness. In each episode, you’ll explore nursing specialties some familiar and some you may not even know exist through real stories and insight that help you better understand what may be possible for you at any stage of your career.
We talk with real nurses who share their stories, their specialties, and the paths they took to get there.
Real nurses. Real stories. Real possibilities.
