82: Uplifting Messages from the Universe! Annie Jones PhD, MBA, MSN, RN, AOCN, NC-BC Highlights

“I thank the universe and have much gratitude. I think what's on my heart is that community is so important.

And it's our own responsibility for ourselves, and to remember that when we see another member of our community— so in other words, our Nursing group, our Nurse coaches in particular— is that we're a sister and brotherhood, and we have to reach out to keep ourselves together in a world that is designed, at the moment, to tear us from all ends.” ~ Annie Jones PhD, MBA, MSN, RN, AOCN, NC-BC

81: Building a Business as a New Nurse Coach- Whitney Distefano BSN, RN, NC-BC

“As a new business owner in the community, it's just been one learning opportunity after another, and truly just like a practice of vulnerability, of showing up and putting yourself out there and really doing the best I can to be detached from the outcome, which is what they teach us as Nurse Coaches as well.

Showing up day in and day out, and knowing that, you're gonna find things that you don't know how to do, you're going to find that there are questions you didn't even know were questions. And just having to come back to the attitude that, everything is figure out-able.” ~Whitney Distefano BSN, RN, NC-BC

Ah Ha Moments

• It’s absolutely vulnerable to be a new business owner, especially because Nurses are never taught how to be entrepreneurs. And yet, we can still show up and be open to the possibilities!
• Everything is ‘figure-out-able’. And we can ask for help, and be detached from the outcomes, as best we can
• Be clear on your personal vision and values, as those will be instrumental in you showing up for the world in your true, authentic way, and your ability to align with how you are being of service
• Begin with one step at a time. You don’t have to do it all right away. Find the things you think will have the most impact and begin there. Do a little bit each day for your business and for yourself

"Nurses are so well suited for psychedelics, and we bring so many skill sets that other disciplines don't, and I don't think any one discipline has it all, but I think we bring a really important piece of the puzzle. And if you think about it, Nurses are with patients in non ordinary states of consciousness, sometimes every day.

If you're a hospice Nurse or working in labor and delivery, if you're in Psych, if you're working with patients, you know, coming in and out of anesthesia, patients with delirium. So many reasons why somebody could be an altered state or even just shock trauma. You know, emergency Nursing.

And Nurses often are with patients for prolonged periods of time. You know, offering their caring, healing presence." ~ Dr. Stephanie Van Hope DNP, RN, NC-BC

Ah-Ha Moments

• Psychedelic medicine is becoming more mainstream, and Nurses are stepping up willingly to lead and support their patients, clients and communities
• Nurses are perfectly aligned to lead and work in psychedelic medicine as they are often with patients in altered states of consciousness throughout a shift
• Sacred medicine, also connected to entheogens, because they can help create a link to God within or to experience God within and the use of rituals and traditions to connect with the Divine
• Nurses, you can absolutely take your passions and your knowledge and use both to create courses, programs, concepts and ideas that you know in your heart and will support fellow humans (and yourself) on life’s journey
