    250: Don't Sell Yourself Masterclass Part 2

    In Part 2 of this workshop, Laura dives into one of the biggest mindset shifts entrepreneurs can make: separating self-promotion from idea promotion. While many coaches fear that marketing means constantly talking about themselves, Laura explains that the most impactful marketing isn't about being the center of attention—it's about championing ideas that genuinely help people. She explores how to build an authentic personal brand that grows over time, why visibility doesn't have to look like everyone else's, and how sharing your values, experiences, and unique perspectives creates trust with your audience. Laura also shares a powerful distinction between communicating your accomplishments from a place of confidence versus seeking validation, helping listeners reframe what it means to be visible in business without feeling "salesy." If you've struggled with showing up online or promoting your coaching practice, this episode offers a refreshing and practical approach that feels authentic, sustainable, and deeply aligned with your purpose.

    249: Don't Sell Yourself Masterclass Part 1

    In Part 1 of this masterclass, Laura explores the foundational mindset shifts that every aspiring nurse coach needs before building a thriving coaching practice. While it's easy to focus on certifications, business strategies, and marketing, lasting success begins with something much deeper: your own personal growth. Laura shares why becoming a coach isn't simply about learning new skills. It's about evolving your identity, expanding your self-awareness, and learning to lead yourself before leading others. She discusses the importance of embracing discomfort, challenging limiting beliefs, and recognizing that the transformation you experience personally becomes the greatest gift you can offer your future clients. Laura demonstrates how to use ChatGPT as a brainstorming partner to help articulate your ideas and turn them into engaging social media posts. Rather than starting with a blank page, she shows how you can ask ChatGPT to write several posts around a single coaching concept, then edit the results so they sound authentic to your voice. As AI learns your writing style over time, it becomes an increasingly valuable tool for generating ideas, overcoming writer's block, and creating content that reflects your unique perspective. The goal isn't to let AI replace your voice—it's to give you a strong starting point that you can personalize and make your own.

    248: Resident Interview: Teresa Taylor

    In today’s episode, Laura sits down with Teresa Taylor, a graduate of the Nurse Life Coach Academy and Residency Program, to explore the profound personal transformation that led her from a successful career in trauma nursing and healthcare leadership to building a life and business rooted in purpose and alignment. After experiencing the devastating loss of her younger brother, Teresa found herself questioning everything she thought she knew about nursing, identity, and success. As grief reshaped her world, she eventually realized the career she'd worked so hard to build no longer aligned with who she was becoming. This conversation is a powerful reminder that some of life's most painful moments can become the catalyst for extraordinary transformation. Teresa shares the fears, uncertainty, breakthroughs, and lessons that continue to shape her journey as a professional nurse coach. Teresa Taylor is a Board Certified Nurse Coach with more than 20 years of experience in emergency, trauma, and forensic nursing, as well as healthcare leadership. After her own journey through burnout, grief, and reemergence, Teresa now helps people slow down, reconnect with themselves, and create lives rooted in self-trust, alignment, and authenticity. She brings warmth, curiosity, and deep respect for the human experience into every coaching space. https://talk-with-teresa.com/ Connect with us: Instagram: @successfulnursecoaches Website: www.thesuccessfulnursecoaches.com Mentioned in this episode: NCR + Cohort 8 https://www.nurselifecoachacademy.com/

    247: Spirituality & Nurse Coaching Part 3

    In the final installment of this three-part workshop series, we move beyond concepts and into lived experience. Through several courageous live coaching demonstrations, participants explore the deeply personal relationship between spirituality, trust, identity, and healing. Together, they unpack how religious conditioning, past experiences, and life's greatest challenges can shape the way we relate to ourselves, others, and something greater than ourselves. This episode isn't about finding the "right" spiritual path. It's about creating the freedom to define your own—with curiosity, compassion, and authenticity. Whether you're navigating your own spiritual journey or supporting clients through theirs, this conversation offers a powerful reminder that healing often begins with permission to ask better questions.

    245: Spirituality & Nurse Coaching Part 1

    What role does spirituality play in transformational nurse coaching?In Part 1 of this special three-part workshop series, we explore one of the most powerful topics in coaching: spirituality. Whether spirituality is central to your life or something you're only beginning to explore, this conversation creates space to examine your own beliefs without judgment. Through personal stories, research, and reflections from our nurse coaching community, we discuss how our spiritual beliefs influence the way we show up for ourselves and our clients. As coaches, we can only guide others as deeply as we've been willing to explore ourselves. This episode invites you to begin that journey with openness, curiosity, and compassion. In this episode, you'll learn:Why spirituality naturally emerges during transformational coachingThe difference between spirituality and religion, and why they aren't always the sameHow your personal beliefs influence your coaching presenceWhy psychological safety is essential for both coaches and clientsCommon fears surrounding spirituality and religious traumaThe concept of spiritual pluralism, exclusivism, and a new perspective called "perceptual exclusivism"Insights gathered from more than 120 nurse coaches about their spiritual beliefs and experiencesWhy cultivating your own inner work allows you to coach at a deeper levelHow resonance and personal energy impact every coaching conversation The most powerful coaching doesn't come from having all the answers. It comes from creating a safe space where both coach and client can explore life's deepest questions with curiosity, humility, and compassion.

    244: Time Management vs. Time Ownership: Why You Don't Need a Better Calendar

    Do you need a better planner, or a completely different relationship with time? In today’s episode of The Successful Nurse Coach Podcast, Laura explores the powerful distinction between time management and time ownership. Drawing from her own experiences as a nurse, entrepreneur, mother, and leader, she challenges the belief that productivity problems can be solved with better systems, color-coded calendars, or the perfect morning routine. Instead, Laura introduces a deeper question: Who owns your time? For nurses transitioning into coaching, entrepreneurship, or any new chapter of growth, this conversation offers a refreshing perspective on overwhelm, freedom, self-leadership, and the responsibility that comes with creating a life by design rather than by default. If you've ever felt stretched thin, guilty about not doing enough, or trapped in a cycle of constant urgency, this episode will help you rethink how you spend your most valuable resource.
