NURSE COACH WHITNEY

BACKGROUND:

​

I have always loved helping people and volunteered often when I was younger. I completed the nursing assistant program in high school and worked as a nursing assistant for 5 years. Then, I went back to school for my Licensed Practical Nurse Diploma and worked as an LPN for 4 years, mostly in the Twin Cities. After living in the cities for a couple of years, my hope was to complete my Registered Nurse degree in the area, but the nursing schools were so competitive that I couldn’t get in. I was able to get into the RN program back home in Brainerd, so I moved back to complete my degree while also entering into motherhood as a single parent. I have been working as an RN since 2017.

 

After some time, I felt called to move back to the Twin Cities and so I did in May of 2020, at the beginning of the COVID pandemic. The same month I moved back, the George Floyd riots happened. I was working in home care at the time and it was frightening to live and work in the middle of it all with only my son and 2 dogs. After months of seeing and hearing just how broken and hurt this city was, my mission and passion for coaching came from wanting to help heal the people in the cities that I love.

 

I knew in my soul that becoming a nurse coach was my life purpose. At the time, I was not ready to start my nurse coaching program, as there was just too much going on in my life. Unfortunately, there is never a good time to start anything, but I finished The Nurse Coach Collective program in November of 2023 and I am SO excited to get started!

 

IDEAL COACHING CLIENTS:

​

I have interests in working with people also of the LGBTQ+ community, being the "black sheep" of their family, addiction issues, anxious/avoidant/disorganized attachment styles, all types of relationships, feeling burnout, anxiety, depression, PTSD, perfectionists, neurodivergents, nutrition/exercise issues, healthcare professionals, and anyone who is committed to editing their life in a positive and healthier way.

 

I like to focus on healing holistically through mindfulness, balancing chakras and masculine/feminine energies, tarot for shadow work, practicing gratitude, validation, and actively listening by being 100% present for you. Through the process of self discovery and self awareness, we will identify your values, motivation, and beliefs, learn and apply love languages to yourself and others, reframe negative thoughts, and set small, attainable goals to achieve so we can celebrate your progress.  

 

I am a true believer that everything happens for a reason. I also strongly believe in the Universe and Astrology. I have gone through my own healing journey of awakening and I've finally found myself and PEACE. Now, I want to be the inspiration for others going down a similar healing journey to prove that it's worth it. I truly believe that everything is connected and together, we can change ourselves and the world!
