In this episode, we’re pulling back the curtain on our own nursing journeys and diving deep into the world of terminal degrees. Whether you’re curious about the difference between a PhD, an EdD, and a DNP, or you’re just trying to figure out what your next career move looks like, we’ve got you covered.
We break down:
- The "Alphabet Soup" of Nursing: A clear look at doctoral degrees versus certifications like the APRN.
- The Power of the DNP: How we use "systems-level thinking" to take new research and get it into practice in 2 years instead of 17.
- Our Personal Stories: Ashley shares her transition from nurse manager to full-time faculty, and Elizabeth explains her "pragmatic" and financial approach to getting her NP and DNP simultaneously.
Nursing is one of the few careers where you can completely reinvent yourself without ever leaving the profession. We’re here to encourage you to say "yes" to the next opportunity and keep growing your own "hive."
