Bina Nurse Coach

I wish I had known how much mindset mattered before I started my nurse coaching business.

I spent months obsessing over websites, logos, and perfecting my “offer.”

But my self-doubt was louder than my sales calls.

👉 I’d stare at Canva for hours, convincing myself I wasn’t ready.
👉 I told myself I needed the “perfect” brand before I could pitch.
👉 Deep down, I was just scared of rejection.

Your dream doesn’t die from a messy website.
It dies from never putting yourself out there.

Once I started working on my thoughts, the contracts followed.
Because perfection doesn’t build your business, courage does.

So if you’re stuck tinkering with templates instead of pitching, this is your sign.
Every week you spend “tweaking” is a client you’ll never meet.

I’ve been there, done that.
And you don’t have to do it alone.

The most underrated skill in building a nurse coaching business isn’t strategy. It’s courage.

Not the loud, motivational poster courage.
The quiet courage to send the message, pitch your idea, or post your story even when your inner critic is screaming.

We glorify degrees, credentials, and shiny titles. But none of it matters if you can’t move through fear long enough to show up.

I didn’t land my first corporate contract because I had the perfect plan. I landed it because I hit “send” before I talked myself out of it.

Courage is a muscle. Flex it.

You don’t hate nursing.
You HATE what nursing has turned you into.

👉 A nurse who runs on empty.
👉 A nurse who gives everything and gets nothing back.
👉 A nurse who keeps saying “I’m fine” when you’re not.

That’s not normal. That’s not okay. And deep down you know it.

You love helping people, but you’re drowning in a system that doesn’t love you back.
And here’s the gut punch: if nothing changes, it’s only going to get worse.

So ask yourself:
How much longer are you going to keep breaking yourself just to keep everyone else alive?

Because there is another way. Nurse coaching.
Where your story, your skills, and your heart actually matter.
Where you stop surviving and start leading.
Where you get freedom and impact not just more shifts and more charting.

Stop waiting for the hospital to save you. They won’t.
Save yourself.

If you’re ready, comment READY or DM me.
Not next month. Not “someday.” Today.

I’ll be honest: the shared room experience broke me in ways I didn’t expect. 😩

At 5:30 in the morning, the big lights would flip on without warning because the staff “needed to get things done.” My roommate’s IV infiltrated, and instead of compassion for both patients, the easy choice was to light up the entire room. I couldn’t sleep. She couldn’t rest. And when I brought it up, the solution was: “Here’s an eye mask and earplugs.”

That’s not a solution.
That’s convenience over compassion.

And it didn’t stop there… one sink for two patients, shared bathroom space, zero privacy. I knew everything about her history, and she knew everything about mine. We were both stripped of dignity by a system that preaches care but runs on efficiency.

Here’s what this taught me in leadership, convenience is a silent killer.

It’s easy to flip the lights on. Easy to say, “There’s nowhere else to have this conversation.” Easy to choose the fast route. But when leaders choose what’s easy instead of what’s compassionate, people feel it. They lose sleep. They lose trust. They lose faith in you.

👉 My challenge to you is STOP asking, “What’s easiest for me?” START asking, “What preserves dignity for them?” That shift is what separates managers from leaders.

Because dignity isn’t optional. Compassion isn’t optional either.

And convenience should never come at the cost of someone’s humanity.

Hope this helps.
Happy reflection Sunday.

Let’s talk about the shared room situation.

Hospitals preach HIPAA like it’s the holy grail. Privacy. Confidentiality. Trust. Yet when you’re put in a shared room, all of that goes straight out the window.

I could hear everything about the girl lying in the bed next to me, her condition, her treatment, her history. And she could hear everything about mine. Nobody asked, “Would you like to step into a private space to discuss this?” Nope. Doctors just walked in, spoke loudly, and acted like it was business as usual.

At one point, I even said, “Can we not talk about this here?” And the response I got was basically, “Well, there’s nowhere else to do it.”

That’s not privacy. That’s not dignity. That’s a violation.

And it made me realize… this is no different than what happens inside organizations. We talk about “confidentiality,” “safe spaces,” and “respect”… but then we casually discuss people’s performance or struggles in ways that strip away trust and dignity.

👉 Leaders, if you claim to value privacy, prove it with your actions. Don’t just protect people when it’s convenient. Protect them when it’s uncomfortable.

Because trust is either sacred or it’s broken. There is no in-between.

𝗪𝗵𝗲𝗻 “𝗜𝘁’𝘀 𝗡𝗼𝘁 𝗧𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗕𝗮𝗱” 𝗔𝗹𝗺𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗖𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗠𝗲 𝗘𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴

I want to share something real that happened to me this week.

When I came into the hospital, the physician gave me two options. His delivery made it sound like things weren’t that serious.

Option A: go home, sleep in my own bed, and come back Monday.
Option B: stay the night “just to be safe.”

Guess which one I almost chose?
I almost went home.

And here’s the wild part: the doctor already knew there was more going on.
He didn’t tell me, “Hey, there’s something serious happening. We want you to stay so we can re-evaluate you in the morning.” Instead, he minimized it.

The only reason I didn’t go home was because my mom told me, “Bina, don’t risk it…stay the night.”

That choice mattered because I later found out I had a ruptured ovarian cyst. I wasn’t told that until the next day. Nobody explained the plan. That night, they just started antibiotics and kept cycling pain meds while I thought this was “no big deal.”

Do you realize how dangerous that is? That was a near miss.

If I had gone home, thinking everything was fine because of how it was communicated to me, things could’ve ended very differently.

When leaders sugarcoat the truth, they don’t protect people. They put them at risk.

👉 My question to you: Where in your own leadership are you guilty of this? Where are you softening the truth instead of giving people the clarity they deserve?

Because sometimes, “it’s not that bad” is the most dangerous sentence in the world.

As I sit here recovering noticed it was only been 48 hours since my surgery.

I am tired, crampy. And honestly restless

But these kisses from my kids are the best !

They are amazing and such a blessing.

Thank you to everyone who reach out. I am still slowly responding.
