Are You Advancing in Your Nursing Career, or Just Getting Older in the Same Role? Many internationally educated nurses share the same experience: “I’m busy, I’m exhausted… but I’m not actually growing in my nursing career.” This month’s edition of the International Nursing Career newsletter tackles a critical question for nurses working abroad: 👉 Recognizing Career Stagnation: Are You Really Growing? Inside, you’ll discover: - Subtle signs of career stagnation for international nurses (that have nothing to do with laziness) - How to identify whether it’s the healthcare system, your mindset, or a combination holding you back - A gentle reflection exercise to help you plan your next career move instead of staying on autopilot I’m also opening up about a personal chapter in my own journey, when I realized I was being praised for my work, but not actually progressing. If you’ve ever felt guilty for wanting more than just job stability as a nurse abroad, this edition is for you. 💙 Read the full newsletter "Feeling stuck as an international nurse? Let's talk about career stagnation!" and join the conversation here in our community, “Nurses Move Career Coaching.” Connect with other international nurses, share your story, and get support for your next step. Your nursing career was never meant to stay on pause, let’s move forward together. So read the newsletter and get ready for the conversation we will start on Monday the 16th of February with some prompts.

Lets go back to work, should we? Ok beautiful people, I hope you are doing great! ❤️ I know I have been quite busy lately and didn't get you to reflect or interact too much, but I hope you've enjoied the latest free resources that I've dropped in the classroom. If you haven't yet you should check them out... Anyway... This evening I am back with a reflection prompt!🤩 Why? Because we should start a conversation here, I want that you stop being shy and you start asking questions or sharing your viewpoint. This is the goal of this community, making you interact each other, and make you learn one another while I support you in your career growth. Lets start simple: 1. I ask you a question. 2. You answer the questionthe best you can (no judgment here, remember?!😉) 3. I give you a solution or direction or a best prompt for reflection, if you need to work more on it. 4. You also can interact each other: this will help you deep your understanding on that particular matter, but also you will feel less alone in your challenges, because I reassure you, that we all face the same challenges, the difference is that all of us will express in different way. So today I am bringing you my first question: What’s your biggest challenge right now in your nursing/career journey?

Amazing coaching session today with @Flavia Cotza and @Rosa Asiride for the "Successful Expat Nurse Accelerator" Programme I love group coaching session because on top of the coaching sessione something magic happens: the peer support and the peer conversation that leads to deeper understanding of the process. I've arrived at 18:29 and I found Flavia and Rosa already chatting. The beauty of this peer conversation is that they happen naturally. Just to tell you, after joining and saying "Hello" I've been quite for at least 15 minutes, letting them interact each other. It was something amazing! I am extrimely proud of them and listening to them exchanging thoughs, experiences and emotions was just exraordinary!

Hi beauties! I hope your weekend is going amazingly! 🤩🙌 I am back today to make you reflect again on your career progression. We are here for this reason, right? Last time I've asked you: "What’s your biggest challenge right now in your nursing/career journey?" Today we continue to that direction because I want that you discover ways to move your career in the right path using true reflections. So, because you've alredy identified what is your biggest challenge, my question for you today is: "What have you tried so far, and how did it go?" Meaning: did you actually tried to overcome your challenge? - If yes, how? Did it work? - If you haven't tried to overcome your biggest challenge yet, why is that? What stops you to commit to yourself? Let us know in the comments section below! 👇🏻 I am very exited about this question because this is one of the most important onces for your career progression! Let's discuss!😇

Good Morning and Happy Tuesday! I hope your week has started with the right energy and insights! I have a prompt for you this morning to stimulate you in your career reflection. Lately on social media, I observed a strange/silly behaviour: people who glorify themselves because wearing multiple hats. Do you know?! When someone does many things at once generally speaking s/he doesn't do anything well. They couldn't never been the best at anything but only generalist in many things. In our culture lately we also tent to confusing term: multitasking, for example, doesn't mean wearing different hats, it means, in a given contest or situation, to be able to organise ownself time and resources for efficiency. For example an ICU nurse taking care of a sick patient, is not a multitasking nurse because of managing different things at the same time (monitor, ventilation, syringe pumps etc) but s/he is a specialised nurse, because she's been trained to take care to complex patients, and so s/he multitasking in that give moment (during shift). This is why, in normal condition, it is one nurse per patient! This is the reason why specialised nurses earn more than general nurses or specialised doctors earn more than general practitioner. And this is true for any profession (layers, accountants, etc) So my question for you is: if you have a problem or a need, that you need to solve as soon as possible and well, would you go to the specialist or to the generalist? Who would you prefer to take care of you? And most importantly: would you prefer spend more money once and be sure that your problem or need is addressed properly, or do you prefer spend less money but several times and risk that your problem or need would never be solved? This question should drive your career decision. Why? Because is the same question that your patients/clients ask themselves when they decide to give their needs (or money) to you. That's true, get specialised requires time and effort but it is a commitment that repays so much in the long run!
