Here’s what no one tells you when you become a nurse practitioner: the lessons that matter most aren’t in the textbooks. They’re learned the hard way - through tears, mistakes, burnout, and breakthrough moments. After 8 years, I’ve distilled it down to 8 lessons I wish I had known since ...

Have you ever walked into work with your coffee in hand, hoping today will be a good day, hoping that you’ll get through your day smoothly and happily. But your first patient is already waiting with a list of questions a mile long. Your medical assistant is behind. The computer’s slow and there’s been an EHR update so the layout looks different.

What I wish someone told me before I became a nurse practitioner
I’ve been a nurse practitioner for over 8 years. And today I’m going to tell you what I wish someone told me before I became a nurse practitioner.

Do you wish you had more time in your day as a nurse practitioner?
