In the age of social media, it's easy to fall into the trap of comparison. We see our colleagues posting about their love for nursing, their energy, and their positive experiences, and we can't help but wonder, "What's wrong with me?”In this episode, we’ll address the issue of comparison in nursing careers. With the prevalence of energetic and positive nurses online, it can lead to feelings of inadequacy and questioning one's nursing career. However, it is okay to not feel the same level of happiness and fulfillment as others in the profession and we should accept our reality and stop comparing ourselves to others. By creating space for self-reflection and engaging in activities that bring joy, nurses can begin to move towards a more fulfilling nursing career.Key takeaways:0:00:17 Feeling disconnected and comparing oneself to others0:01:19 It's okay to not feel the same way about nursing0:02:37 Accepting that everyone's reality is different0:04:16 Nursing is not always rainbows and sunshine0:05:44 Nervous system dysregulation and burnout0:06:14 Stop comparing and acknowledge where you're at5 Ways we can support you in your nursing career ✅Join our Free Nurse Career Growth Hub and access our free nursing application, interview and career growth guides here!Join our Nurse Career Academy and work with us to help guarantee your next nursing role!Book a free Career Clarity Call with Liam to discuss your career situation!Join our private FB community to surround yourself with like minded nurses!Check out our Youtube Channel for more nurse career support!

Confidence vs. Self ConfidenceIn this episode, I dig into confidence vs. self-confidence, a common issue among us nurses, is believing we are not confident enough to do something. I started by separating confidence and self-confidence into external and internal factors, where confidence is seen as an external validation and self-confidence comes from within.Three main factors contribute to self-confidence: trusting yourself at all times, being open to experiencing any emotion, and your thoughts about yourself.There is also a misconception that confidence comes from being competent in something, and it clarifies that confidence comes from repetition, but self-confidence comes from within.Self-confidence is not arrogance but rather trust in oneself, willingness to experience both positive and negative emotions, and managing thoughts about oneself.This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to build their self-confidence. I provide insightful and practical tips on cultivating self-confidence, which is essential for success in any career or aspect of life.Key takeaways:03:28 - Confidence and self-confidence a common issues among people.04:48 - External and internal factors.06:54 - Three main factors of self-confidence08:10 - Self-confidence is not arrogance09:43 - Overcoming misconceptions15:53 - The importance of self-confidence18:53 - Self-confidence is your ticket to your dream job5 Ways we can support you in your nursing career ✅Join our Free Nurse Career Growth Hub and access our free nursing application, interview and career growth guides here!Join our Nurse Career Academy and work with us to help guarantee your next nursing role!Book a free Career Clarity Call with Liam to discuss your career situation!Join our private FB community to surround yourself with like minded nurses!Check out our Youtube Channel for more nurse career support!

As nurses, we often seek advice from our peers, family, and friends when it comes to our careers. However, not all advice is created equal, and following bad advice can have detrimental effects on our mental, emotional, and professional well-being.In this episode, we will talk about the 5 Bad Nursing Advice that nurses must take into consideration. One of them is that switching jobs isn't a negative aspect, but a chance for nurses to explore and discover what truly fits their aspirations. The goal of this episode is to empower you, the nurses, to chart your own career journey, free from the constraints of outdated advice.Key takeaways:01:15 The Truth About Job Hopping05:10 Time in a Job Equals Experience11:51 Challenging Traditional Career Advice13:49 Breaking the Belief That Experience is Necessary15:58 Encouraging Flexibility and Opportunity in Nursing Career Paths18:14 Dismissing the Requirement to Meet Every Job Description20:09 Leveraging Personal Experience for Job Applications in Desired Specialties24:04 Don't Let Fear of Rejection Stop You from Applying for a Job24:42 Apply for Multiple Graduate Positions to Have More Options25:08 Never Assume You Have a Job Offer until it's Official29:10 Challenging the Norm in Nursing and Healthcare5 Ways we can support you in your nursing career ✅Join our Free Nurse Career Growth Hub and access our free nursing application, interview and career growth guides here!Join our Nurse Career Academy and work with us to help guarantee your next nursing role!Book a free Career Clarity Call with Liam to discuss your career situation!Join our private FB community to surround yourself with like minded nurses!Check out our Youtube Channel for more nurse career support!

In this episode, I explore the concept of "who not how" and how it can help nurses achieve their goals. Instead of focusing on how to achieve a goal, it is more effective to find the right person or resource to help you reach that goal. I’m sharing my examples and stories to illustrate the power of finding the right "who" and leveraging their expertise.This concept is inspired by the book "Who Not How?" by Dr. Benjamin Hardy and Dan Sullivan. The book's central idea is finding the right individuals to help you reach your goals. Once you find the right "who" – a mentor, coach, or colleague – they can guide you, provide accountability, and help you uncover the "how".Focusing less on the "how" and more on the "who" can be a game-changer in achieving goals, especially for nurses. It helps us leverage collective expertise, regulate our mindset, and accelerate our progress. So, as you set your sights on your goals for 2024, consider looking for your "who" to help uncover the "how".Key takeaways:03:30 The Book "Who Not How" by Dr. Benjamin Hardy and Dan Sullivan04:38 Using the "Who Not How" Mindset in a Leadership Role08:26 Impact of Disconnection in the Nursing Community10:49 Achieving Goals through Neuroplasticity and Accountability12:07 The Importance of Finding the Right Support in Nursing14:46 Leveraging Collective Expertise to Achieve Nursing Goals22:47 Holding Yourself Accountable and Having a Future-Focused Vision in Nursing24:22 Success Story of Helping a Nurse Transition to a Work-From-Home Position26:00 Leveraging Someone's Expertise to Save Time and Achieve Goals28:56 Personal Example of Leveraging Someone's Expertise to Save Time29:57 Importance of Finding the Right "Who" in Nursing Careers and Leadership5 Ways we can support you in your nursing career ✅Join our Free Nurse Career Growth Hub and access our free nursing application, interview and career growth guides here!Join our Nurse Career Academy and work with us to help guarantee your next nursing role!Book a free Career Clarity Call with Liam to discuss your career situation!Join our private FB community to surround yourself with like minded nurses!Check out our Youtube Channel for more nurse career support!

In this episode, I explore 'transition shock' and strategies to conquer it, addressing the challenges of transitioning to new roles or careers. Facing the fear of starting over can hinder progress. To thrive amidst these changes, I emphasized the importance of embracing change and nurturing resilience.Transition shock encompasses a spectrum of emotions experienced during significant life or career shifts—excitement, confidence, self-doubt, and anxiety.

In today's episode, my focus is on a major issue affecting our earning potential: underselling ourselves. Despite our skills and accomplishments, many nurses struggle to express their true value due to fear of coming off as overconfident. It's crucial to distinguish between self-assuredness and arrogance while recognizing and communicating your expertise, achievements, and experience for professional growth.This habit of underselling creates a self-fulfilling prophecy, hindering our opportunities in nursing careers by dwelling on our perceived inadequacies. To combat this, we need to deeply explore our career narratives, understand our worth, and reshape our perceptions of our capabilities.The roots of this underselling behavior lie in deep-seated beliefs and past experiences. Not addressing these can stall professional growth and earning potential. Although not an easy fix, investing in recognizing your worth brings real changes in your career trajectory. By ending the underselling cycle and actively pursuing opportunities that match your value, you can unlock the income and opportunities you truly deserve. Let's remember that nurses' worth merits acknowledgment, paving the way for opportunities that reflect our actual value.
