"What is homeopathy? I think a lot of people confuse it with home remedies. And it's not necessarily home remedies. It is, not garlic and using turmeric and herbs. Rather, it's its own subset of medicine. 

It's an energetic medicine. So everything is ultra diluted in homeopathy. So they do take a mother tincture, or a natural substance, and will dilute that to the point where it's only the energy left of that substance. So we are talking about only the energy, and the way that it works is these ultra dilutions are going to help us to heal the body.”  ~Lauren Briggs BSN, RN, HWNC-BC, HN-BC

Wellness Nurse Revolution: Alison Boser RN 

“Everybody wants their employees to be healthy, but being healthy…What does that mean? And that means different things to different people. It's not one size fits all. 

It's a really flexible, definition based on your stage of life, where you are. And I think an awareness of wellness as this sort of amorphous different things at different times for people would be fantastic. I think wellness, like capital W wellness, has a bit of a negative connotation that, you must be very thin and muscular and do hot yoga or something, but that's not it. 

You know, it's like walking your dog. It's your grandma who can carry your groceries into her house at 95 and she gets them after she goes and plays cards! It's strong communities. I'd love to see all of the skills from Nurse coaching and all the Nurse coaches ripple out like that.” ~Alison Boser, RN

AH-HA Moments

• From Trauma to Transformation: Alison shares her journey from emergency and travel nursing to creating her dream role as a Wellness Nurse—a position she literally spoke into existence.
• Wellness in Action: Learn how Alison supports hospital staff with coaching, crisis response, mindfulness, group programs, and even “7-minute weightlifting sessions” to make wellness accessible in busy hospital life.
• Healing the Healers: Through compassion, listening, and presence, she models what it means to show up for others—and herself—while advocating for sustainable, human-centered healthcare systems.
• Community & Connection: From workplace book clubs to environmental wellness initiatives like composting and recycling programs, Alison weaves community care into hospital culture.
• The Ripple Effect: By supporting one nurse at a time, the Wellness Nurse Revolution uplifts whole teams, reduces burnout, and redefines what health looks like inside healthcare.

The Daring Power of Two: Midlife Women Entrepreneurs Enhancing Health Care- Jen Schroer BSN, RN, NC-BC and Angie Maguire BSN, RN, NC-BC Highlights

Ah- Ha Moments

• Meet the Nurse Coach Duo: Jen Schroer and Angie Maguire as they share why they chose entrepreneurship and the Integrative Nurse Coach path to serve midlife women through preventative, actionable lifestyle care.
• From “do it perfect” to “do it sloppy”, they launched a collaborative YouTube channel.  Larning the behind thumbnails, Zoom, Canva, cadence, they’ve proved momentum and community beats perfectionism every time
• The ah-ha moments they discovered from their Integrative Nurse Coaching programs center on client-led change, simple tools like breathwork, and honoring each person’s unique vision of wellness, and that life and healthcare is not a one-size-fits-all approach
• Integrative Nurse Coaches ‘slow the roll’ of fast, task-driven systems—focusing on prevention, whole-person assessments and plans (physical, mental, emotional, social, occupational and more), and practical lifestyle tweaks (e.g., blood-sugar awareness) with time to truly listen
• Inspired by the 2024 INCA Symposium, they championed collaboration over competition, inviting Nurses and Nurse Coaches to connect, share modalities (sound healing, pelvic floor PT, hypnosis, functional medicine), and lift up more voices to transform care together

From Patient to Purpose: A Nurse Coach’s Mission to Transform Organ Donation Support- Taylor Byrer BSN, RN, NC-BC Highlights

“I was telling these two about my story and about how I needed a liver. And it was the most moving, most like chilling experience, like every single hair on my body was standing straight, because then the next time that we met, one of them had shared that she had lost her dad, and it was unexpected. 

And then the hospital staff came to her and asked if he was an organ donor. And she said, ‘No, he wasn’t.’ And she said, ‘I had never thought about him being an organ donor, like I never thought about that process.’

And she said, ‘…and it wasn't until I heard about your story that I said, Yes, I want him to be an organ donor, and he would be okay with that’. And then he was an organ donor. And then she came back to me again a couple weeks later, and she said, Taylor, the only organ that he was able to get was his liver.”  ~Taylor Byrer BSN, RN, NC-BC

 Ah-Ha Moments

• Taylor’s story reminds Integrative Nurse Coaches how vital holistic presence and deep listening are during life-altering medical experiences
• This story is a powerful lesson in how lived experiences can shape a meaningful coaching niche. Feel and notice how you are called towards the population you will serve best!
• Even small steps—emails, calls, visits—can create real momentum
• You will hear “no”: instead of discouragement, no can bring clarity and redirection
• Say yes to the possibilities that call to you, yes to compassion, and yes to being an organ donor

“I find that people make the changes best when they uncover the information themselves. I can offer them information, but unless they come up with that solution, that's where real magic happens. That's where change happens when they come up with their own solution. 

And I find through the subconscious work with hypnosis and yoga nidra, that sometimes you just really need to be in that relaxed state to have it come to the surface. You may not even be aware of it, and it comes to the surface, and then that's when the transformation happens.”  ~Mary Cohen MSN-ED, RN, AHN-BC, HWNC-BC, CH, NLP 

Ah-Ha Moments

 · Nurses can combine Integrative Nurse Coaching with any other modality that they find impactful.  Integrative Nurse Coaching is limitless!

 · When patients, clients and communities allow for stillness in their lives, messages from their subconscious will move into consciousness, often allowing for new awareness and opportunities for impactful transformation

 · Important to listen, and hear the client’s patient’s message and then to reflect back what you heard, instead of offering solutions- this allows the person to define their own solutions in their unique life

Inspiring Collective Community: Christine Gilchrist PhD, MPH, RN, NC-BC, CH Highlights

"To each of you— to ask, at this point, 'what is it you're hoping for'?  And then when you have that, when you've reflected on that, to go back inside and ask, 'what is your deeper hope'? I think, to be able to connect with feelings of hope through difficult times that certainly we experience in our lives and as a society, it's important to connect with hope, the feelings of hope, and what ultimately we're hoping for, because there's always, there's always hope in each moment." ~Christine Gilchrist PhD, MPH, RN, NC-BC, CH

Menopause Insights from a Nurse Coach-Suzanne Greiner BSN, RN, NC-BC Highlights

“Yes, I'm going through perimenopause. And what do I want my perimenopause story to look like? Do I want to be a victim to going through this?

Or do I want to be that victor? I went through perimenopause, and I was able to do this, and I was able to find solutions for my own health. And I think the kicker for me at that point in my perimenopausal journey was, I want this to be that when I'm 85 years old, and I look back on my life, this is the point that I chose for longevity of my life, versus a quick fix.

So, every decision past, that point in time was, is this going to be helping my 85-year-old body to hike a mountain, or is it going to set me back? So those are the kinds of decisions of working with my future self. What does my future self-want me to do at this moment?” ~Suzanne Greiner BSN, RN, NC-BC

Ah-Ha Moments

• In mid-life, if you’re lucky, you WILL go through the stages of menopause- perimenopause, menopause and post menopause
• You have choices and a voice as it relates to your health- and ALL aspects of your life
• Imagine the life you want to life at 85 years old- ask yourself- is this a decision that will support me when I get to be 85?
• Let Them = Let Me…. You get to choose what comes next.  What will you do with your one precious life?

86: Building a Meditation App- Ann Adams, MS, RN Highlights

"Two supportive practices that are accessible to anybody is their breath— that can help regulate their nervous system, just by learning different ways to breathe. And gratitude. So a gratitude practice is free, and that helps you not ignore what's negative, but helps you scan the horizon for also what's good.  

If we have a dysregulated nervous system, we tend to look for what can be threatening, because that will be what saves our life. So a gratitude practice helps balance that out, that intentional practice of looking for the good." ~Ann Adams, MS, RN 

Ah-Ha Moments

• Take your wisdom, creativity and passion and create something you’ve always wanted or needed
• “Sometimes, you don’t always have the answers, you just know you need to begin.” ~ Dr. Barbara Dossey
• Two supportive and accessible practices are breath and gratitude
• Let your heart and inner wisdom guide you, it will never let you down
• You will learn so much about yourself when you decide to dig in and do something that is fueled by your passion and desire

85: Celebrating Integrative Nurse Coaching: Karen Avino EdD, RN, AHN-BC, HWNC-BC Highlights

"The trend word out there is well being, right? We want Nurses, everyone, to feel like they are in the state of well being.  We know that well being is really static. It's like in the present moment, I'm feeling well, whereas really, self development is about well becoming, because it's a much longer journey of... and never ending, a never ending journey of well becoming, right?

That always has to be a major part of who we are and what we do, because without that experience and being able to develop ourselves, we can't sit with the suffering of others and do a meaningful job with them, or take on the suffering ourselves, or, you know, all of those pieces." ~Karen Avino EdD, RN, AHN-BC, HWNC-BC
