Running a successful independent legal nurse consulting practice is a challenge. I work with LNCs who are committed to building their businesses. Let’s talk to see if this is the right step for you. 

Here’s what a coaching program
can give you

1.  
Fresh perspective

An LNC coach gives you a fresh perspective. I have an objective
view. You only see things from within. I see things from without your blinders.
I also know how other LNCs have tackled the same issues as well as how I succeeded
with the same challenges.

2.  
A hand between your shoulder blades

There are going to be tough times and that's when you get pushed.
That's when your LNC coach says, "Here’s how to do it." I remember
how anxious I was the first time I had to tackle doing a budget. My coach made
it easy and led me through the steps.

3.  
Accountability

A coach gives you accountability. You have
somebody you have to answer to. And anytime you have somebody who you respect,
you're going to get more work done -- plain and simple -- just because you
don't want to let them down. If I had my way, I would not have prepared a
budget.

4.  
Breaking habits

An LNC coach also gives you a chance to
break habits because she challenges your habits. I ask, "Why do you do
things this way?" You say, "I don't know. I just do them that
way." "Let's try it this way instead." And I help you recognize
unproductive habits.

5.  
Insight

A coach also gives you insight you can't
get anywhere else. We have specific issues working within the LNC field. I give
you advice to deal with situations, which is super valuable.

6.  
A safe person for venting

A coach lets you vent your frustration,
meaning sometimes all you need to do is complain for a little bit. Then when
you're done, you're able to go back out there and get on with it. But if you
don't have anybody to do that to,
