What happens when a high-achieving nurse hits breaking point? When burnout, bullying, and the weight of a career in the system leave you questioning everything? In this powerful first interview back on the pod, Liam sits down with Trina Pitts , a senior nurse educator, mum, marathon-runner, and now — thriving nurse entrepreneur — to unpack her journey from breakdown to breakthrough. After 25 years in nursing, Trina was done. Workplace bullying and unresolved burnout pushed her to the edge. But instead of giving up, she chose something different: healing, self-responsibility, and finally — her own business. 🌱 Inside this episode: The truth about burnout, and why so many high-performing nurses don’t see it coming How Trina went from tears on the way to work… to creating a nurse-led business that lights her up The myth of “not being entrepreneurial” (and why so many nurses are exactly that) How to turn pain into purpose — and build something that serves you Why entrepreneurship isn’t about more hustle… it’s about coming home to yourself 🎯 Whether you're sitting in a senior role wondering is this it? , or you’re secretly dreaming about launching your own thing but don’t know where to start — this is your sign. 💌 TAKE TRINA'S QUIZ Find out where you sit on the Nurse Wellness Scale! 📸 Connect with Trina on Instagram This is your first step out of survival mode. ---------------------------------------- FREE RESOURCES 🚀 Want to start your own nurse-led business with the skills you already got? ✅ Download the Bedside to Business Roadmap – a step-by-step launch guide for nurses ready to build an online income stream. 🎓 Watch the Make Nursing Optional Masterclass – discover the 6 steps to turn your nursing skills into a profitable business (without needing another certificate).
