Episode Description from the Publisher

The first year as a Nurse Practitioner can feel overwhelming, isolating, and nothing like what school prepared you for.

If you’re a new nurse practitioner or preparing to start your first NP job, this episode will give you clarity, reassurance, and a realistic roadmap forward.Absolutely—let’s switch angles so it doesn’t feel repetitive and hits a different emotional + practical nerve.
