As you navigate all of the challenges of CRNA school, you are likely to face some criticism as you learn- and that can feel really scary! Interpreting and using this feedback to propel you forward largely depends on the strength of your mindset. 

Learning how to hone in on who you are as a person will serve you well as you go through your SRNA experience, and set you up for success in the field! Today, we are talking about the daily steps that you can take to keep yourself out of the pits of despair, and move toward graduation day feeling confident! 

In this episode, we cover-

•  The importance of rephrasing and reframing “criticism” as “feedback” 
• Navigating your own limiting beliefs about yourself, and how they affect your sense of self-worth
• Why DAILY self-care and self-love practices are the foundation for navigating the stress of CRNA school
• The exponential growth potential that stems from taking ownership of your own mistakes 
• How to handle feedback in the moment (even if it’s not delivered so kindly)
• Opening your mind to new methods of wellness management (and leaning on a solid support system)

You are never in this alone, future CRNA. So pop in some headphones, and let’s get to self-lovin’!
