Today episode is all about clearing the clutter with office organization!

I am all alone in this episode – which is always a good thing when it comes to talking about my mess 😉

Especially during a pandemic, it’s important to keep your space neat and tidy to keep it inviting.

Let’s Start Office Organization

Things you’ll need

• Garbage can
• File folder
• Label maker
• File holder

That’s IT!

In the episode, I go into my system or organization that I use in my office and on my desktop.

I coined it as the Purge, Purpose and Polish method to Office Organization.

Let me know how it works out for you in our Facebook Group the Savvy Scribe Collective

Nurse keith is here today to tell us about how to use your writing skills to empower you as a nurse and nurse entrepreneur. 

Topics we discuss include: 
- how he started his nurse career. He has a fascinating story about what he did prior to nursing and we talked about how it probably made him a better nurse. We discuss lots of advice related to how to own a business. When touching on how writing helps nurses elevate their careers, he tells us how to build a brand, where to publish, and how to just keep writing. 
- We talk about breaking into speaking events and becoming a social media influencer. - - Since Keith is an expert in holistic medicine, I asked for some tips on how nurses can use holistic medicine in their own practice. You will have some actionable tips to take away and understand "wholeism". 

Mentioned in this show are: 
RNFM Radio, Digital Doorway, Atomic Habits bu James Clear, NNBA Conference. You can find Keith at Nursekeith.com and everywhere on social, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Instagram.

I’ve always been told that I write fast. I can create content quickly and I pride myself in that. It doesn’t happen because I have some magical superpower. It happens because I have a plan, routine and rituals that I do. Take a listen and implement some tips for yourself.

Joy Lere is my guest today. Dr. Joy Lere is a psychologist, consultant, speaker, and writer who practices at the intersection of behavior and business, specializing in work on the merger of money and mind. Dr. Lere has previously served as an Associate Clinical Professor of Clinical Psychology at George Washington University and has held clinical and research positions at Children's National Medical Center, Penn Medicine Princeton Health, and the Department of Defense.

She has lots of value to offer to all of you listeners today. She said she we are selling ourselves short with our rates and we're not valuing our services as nurse writers. Also, I mention the mindset of money abundance vs money scarcity. I love to hear that we have made our money visions when we were growing up, but we can change them. She mentions the "menu" concept for your services as well! I loved this! Role models in her life for her business, Dr. Dodini https://dodini.com.
