You Are Not Alone

Nursing schools prepare us to be health care providers, but they don’t teach us how to land jobs.

It’s scary enough tackling the academic and financial burden of graduate school, much less worrying about job availability. Once you do get an interview, the last thing you want is to blow it because you let your nerves win the battle.

The answer is simple. Interview skills are not a special talent possessed by the chosen few. It is an easily learned technique that you too can develop with a little time and effort.

This is for you if you need help securing your dream career, fellowship, or school acceptance! Join these and many many more anonymous friends who felt the same, but with my help are now working exactly where they want to be!

Critical Care

Critical Care

I recall the difficulty faced when traversing my nurse practitioner journey. Overwhelmed at the end of each clinical rotation; burned out at the end of every shift as a new NP; disheartened that I would ever feel competent much less confident . Especially in the ICU where the knowledge requirement is vast and the problems are truly life and death.


But I learned so much about medicine, critical care, and about myself along my tumultous path. I learned that we all have a unique way of arriving here; that my journey was my own. That hard work, systems, and self grace are crucial to achieving competence.

The Ultimate H&P Cheatsheet and It’s Companion

Here’s a quick video describing the cheatsheet.

When I started my career I stayed late. Every. Single. Day.

This was mostly because note writing was time consuming in the early days.

It all changed once I realized the power of developing systems to automate the work.

Let me introduce you to my friend, “dot phrase.” Aka “smart phrase.” Whatever you call them they are manna from heaven. If you spend time creating these electronic medical record shortcuts you will dramatically increase your efficiency.

Each book includes 11 of the most common ICU problems and the associated smart phrases you should build in your EMR. It includes teaching and sample dot phrases for your edit and copy paste delight!

Time to get home on time!
