Defining Moments

How I responded to discouragement

  • THE NOISE

    Messages from Myself:

    Nursing school was tough - you learn to work in ALL departments before specializing. It’s a critical and time consuming schooling

  • How I responded:

    Find a professor that can be your mentor. Get in study groups so you’re not isolated. Keep in contact with family because I relied heavily on family during that time
