Nursing • Business • Tech
As nurses we work long shifts, are constantly juggling patient needs, new admits, last minute discharges, staffing crises and so much more. Sometimes you feel like you are barely keeping your head above water.
I'm Kathi Randall, and I've been right where you are now – loving the work I did as a bedside nurse but also dreaming of something more.
And guess what?
I turned my nursing skills and my various passions outside of nurses and created a thriving online business over the last twenty years. It didn’t happen overnight, it happened one day at a time, and I started while I was still working at the bedside.
And if I can do it, so can you.
Think about it: you're an expert at explaining complex stuff in simple terms. You're patient, compassionate, and you know how to make people feel heard.
These talents are GOLD when it comes to teaching online. And trust me, the world is hungry for your knowledge.
Now, I know what you're thinking:
"Who am I to teach? I'm just a bedside nurse."
"Who would listen to me? There's nothing special about what I know."
"I'm not tech-savvy. I don't know where to start."
I've had those thoughts on repeat. But here's the truth:
You've got the knowledge, the passion, and the drive. All you need is the right roadmap – and that's exactly what this guide is for.
Let's talk about what makes you, YOU. It's time to uncover that special spark – that thing that makes you come alive.
Sure, it could be your nursing expertise. Maybe you're a whiz at wound care, a diabetes guru, or a new mom whisperer. That's awesome! And there's definitely a hungry audience for that knowledge.
But here's the secret: Your course doesn't have to be strictly nursing-related.
Think about it...
Do you have a passion project outside of work? Maybe you're a master gardener, a DIY queen, or a budding photographer.
Do you have a hobby that you could teach others? Knitting, baking, dog training – the possibilities are endless.
Is there a life skill you've mastered that others could benefit from? Budgeting, time management, decluttering – those are valuable too!
The key is to find something that sets your soul on fire. That's the magic ingredient that will make your course irresistible.
Why Your Unique Spark Matters
When you're passionate about what you're teaching, it shines through in every lesson, every video, every interaction with your students.
And here's the thing: people are drawn to authenticity. They want to learn from someone who's genuinely excited about their topic, not someone who's just going through the motions.
Plus, teaching something you love is just plain fun! It's like getting paid to share your favorite hobby with a bunch of eager friends.
Ready to Discover Your Superpower?
Here are a few questions to get you started:
What do you find yourself talking about non-stop?
What do you spend your free time reading about or researching?
What skills or knowledge do people always ask you for help with?
What would you teach even if you weren't getting paid?
Take some time to reflect on these questions. Journal about it, brainstorm with a friend, or create a mind map.
Once you've identified your superpower, it's time to start thinking about how you can turn it into a course that will help others and bring you joy (and maybe even some extra income!).
I would guess that just like in nursing, you have a favorite “population” or type of patient that you love taking care of. When you think of this group, what are their biggest dreams, fears, struggles, and desires? Tapping in to the mind of your ideal student will help you create the best course for them.
This might sound a little woo-woo, but trust me, it's the secret sauce to creating a course that people can't resist.
Knowing your ideal student is like having a secret weapon. It allows you to:
Speak their language: You'll understand the words they use, the challenges they face, and the questions they're asking. This means you can create content that speaks directly to their hearts and minds.
Solve their problems: You'll be able to tailor your course to their specific needs and pain points, offering solutions that actually make a difference in their lives.
Build a loyal following: When people feel seen and understood, they're more likely to become raving fans of your work. They'll tell their friends, leave glowing reviews, and come back for more.
Now, let's be real here. I've been down the rabbit hole of course platforms from LearnDash to SkillShare then Kajabi and Thinkific. I spent years jumping from one tool to another, wasting money on subscriptions I never used, and trying to piece together a system that worked. It was exhausting!
That's why I'm so passionate about RN Biz Hub.
It's the all-in-one platform I WISH I had when I was starting out.
