A Nurse’s Prayer: Finding Peace, Purpose, and the Courage to Act
This one’s different. Raw. Off-the-cuff. Straight from the heart. After four failed recording attempts, I knew I had to stop trying to make it polished and just press record. In this short but powerful episode of The Nurse Boss Shift, I share a prayer for every nurse navigating overwhelm, tough decisions, messy shifts, and moments of doubt - because I know what it feels like to be in it.I talk about procrastination, perfectionism, faith, and why the very chaos you're feeling might be confirmation that you're being called to more. If you've been needing a sign, needing peace, or just needed to hear that you're not alone - this is it. Let it bless you. And please, if it speaks to you, let me know. Obedience led me here - and I believe it was for you.Here are the highlights:Setting the Tone for the Prayer Beginning the Prayer Prayer for Specific Needs and Challenges Encouragement and Final Prayer Connect with Kiiyonna and Christal:Kiiyonna's Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/sidepreneur_nurse/Christal's Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/christalpthehormonenpNurse Boss Mob Facebook Group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/2906101896370538YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/user/kiiyonna/TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@sidepreneurrn?lang=en

The Ripple Effect of Showing Up
We made it to 100 episodes - and this one’s got everything. From client wins to personal turning points, I’m sharing the behind-the-scenes of a ribbon-cutting event that had me reflecting hard on the power of showing up (even when it’s uncomfortable). We’ll discuss Nate, a shy but determined nursepreneur who pushed past overstimulation and fear to launch a practice that’s already changing lives - and I’ll unpack how moments like his ripple into so much more than we realise.I also take you back to my early teaching days and the moment I almost said no to an opportunity that ended up shaping my entire career. If you’re still arguing for your limitations - “I’m too shy,” “I don’t know how,” “Now’s not the right time” - this is the mindset shift you didn’t know you needed. Let this be your reminder that the ripple effect starts with you.Here are the highlights:Nate's Business Launch and Personal Growth Kiiyonna's Personal Journey and Overcoming Comfort Zones The Ripple Effect of Taking Action Encouragement and Final Thoughts Connect with Kiiyonna and Christal:Kiiyonna's Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/sidepreneur_nurse/Christal's Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/christalpthehormonenpNurse Boss Mob Facebook Group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/2906101896370538YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/user/kiiyonna/TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@sidepreneurrn?lang=en

Why Cheap Investments Lead to Cheap Results
Let’s talk about it: the mindset blocks, the stalled launches, and that weird guilt we feel about investing in ourselves. In this episode, Dr Jones is sharing the hard truth she’s seen play out over and over - the lower the investment, the lower the execution. Same course. Same framework. Different results. Why? Because how we value what we invest in is directly tied to what we get out of it.She’s unpacking the psychology of money, why successful entrepreneurs invest to collapse time, and how shifting your view of money from expense to tool can unlock massive growth. If you’ve been sitting on your goals, avoiding big decisions, or playing small to avoid risk, this episode is your call to think (and act) like the CEO you’re becoming.Here are the highlights:The Psychology of Investment and Value Repackaging Money and Mindset for Success The Importance of Coaching and Mentorship Investing in Future Success Encouraging Entrepreneurs to Take Risks Connect with Kiiyonna and Christal:Kiiyonna's Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/sidepreneur_nurse/Christal's Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/christalpthehormonenpNurse Boss Mob Facebook Group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/2906101896370538YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/user/kiiyonna/TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@sidepreneurrn?lang=en
