How do I know that CRNA is the right path for me? Wherever you are along this journey, you’ve likely heard some sweeping proclamations about the CRNA career, both positive and negative. However, the most qualified person to make the decision to commit to CRNA is YOU.


In this episode, we’re diving into the questions you should be asking yourself to figure out if CRNA is the career for you! So put on the blinders to what everyone else is saying, pop in your headphones, and tune in as we cover –


  • The critical importance of starting to plan early, thinking “big picture,” and leaving the door of opportunity open to yourself (especially while in nursing school!)
  • Why you should seek out as many shadowing and networking experiences as possible to immerse yourself in the CRNA world
  • How “following your fear” can expand your comfort level and expose you to incredible growth and reward
  • A realistic take on the different types of stress you can expect as a CRNA
  • The personality traits and tendencies that will benefit you inside this field
  • The incredible rewards that come along with the level of responsibility as a CRNA.


Happy reflecting, future CRNA! You’ve got this, and we’ve got you!
