Description

You’ve survived nursing school, passed the NCLEX, and landed your first job, but being a new grad nurse comes with its own unique set of challenges.


In this encore episode, I’m joined by my nurse bestie and incredible educator, Stephanie Griffeth, to talk about the number one mistake new grad nurses make — and what to do instead.


(Spoiler alert: It’s not about charting, IVs, or time management.)


In this episode, you’ll learn:

✨ What this common mistake looks like in real-world practice
💬 How to shift your mindset from self-doubt to self-trust
🧠 The key to turning every shift (even the tough ones) into growth
💪 Practical ways to build confidence as you transition from student to nurse


And because confidence is so important, you’re invited to check out a sneak peek inside Confident Nurse Academy 2.0 — a CE-approved roadmap for new and early-career nurses who want to finally feel calm, capable, and in control.


🎥 Watch the sneak peek video here


You’ll see exactly how CNA helps you build clinical judgment, manage your shifts, and step into the confident nurse you’re meant to be.
