When we have industry senior leaders leaving healthcare and changing careers to coaching, we have to get curious about it! Eva Storey did just that! With an impressive span of international senior director positions and a wealth of knowledge and experience, Eva made the leap.
In this episode, we meet the founder of Eva Storey Coaching and the host of the Real Nurse Story Podcast, Eva Storey!
Eva has over 39 years of international nursing experience and has worked from being a clinician to becoming director of nursing and general manager in multiple healthcare institutions.
Eva shares her journey and experience with us, particularly the principles and values she embodied to achieve success. We learn how to be prepared to grab opportunities to further your career even if sometimes you haven’t figured out the “how” yet. Eva relates to us the power of mentorship and coaching and how it changed her life and enabled her to find herself on the path to moving forward.
We are so excited to have someone as experienced and energetic as Eva join us and give us wisdom and insights on navigating our way in our chosen nursing career! If you’re starting as a nursing graduate or believe you’re in a position to move forward in your nursing career, this episode is for you!
