A Note From Nena

Hi Nurses, Happy April!

I just got back from the SONO Hospice Conference, and while I took in a lot of great information, the biggest takeaway for me was simple but powerful: relationships are everything.

When we truly focus on building genuine relationships—sharing who we are, what we value, how we help, and why it matters—selling becomes unnecessary. The know-like-trust factor is already there, and that connection cuts through all the noise and effort we usually associate with “sales.”

What stood out at SONO was how easy it felt to connect and collaborate with people who are aligned in mission and heart. That’s exactly why I love the NNBA Conference, too. When you're in a room full of nurses who want the same things—freedom, purpose, impact—the energy creates this quantum leap effect. Things just move faster. It’s not hustle. It’s alignment.

So if you’ve been trying to do it all yourself, I challenge you to consider where relationships could be the missing key. Whether it’s at a conference, in a mastermind, or in your everyday connections—lean in. Share. Connect. That’s where the real magic happens.

Stop Wasting Time & Money: Use The Liberated Nurse’s Guide to Validate Your Business Idea!

Nurses possess a deep understanding of healthcare, and many have innovative business ideas that can make a real difference. The challenge lies in taking the first step toward creating a business that empowers them to help others while achieving personal and professional freedom.

The key to starting strong is validating the business idea to ensure it’s both impactful and sustainable. This essential process helps aspiring nurse entrepreneurs avoid wasting time, money, and energy on courses, coaching, or marketing strategies that might not align with their goals.
