With experienced nurse entrepreneur coaches

Enrollment is limited to 10 students per coaching group.

If you’re like most of the nurses who want to start businesses, you’re worried about the “What Ifs.”

  • What if I have no prior business experience?

  • What if my business can’t replace the income I currently get from my job?

  • What if I make a terrible financial or legal mistake?

  • What if nobody wants to buy my program or services?

  • What if I try and fail?


The simple fact is, most nurses have no business education. Nursing schools typically don’t teach business skills, and conventional business education is not designed with nurses’ knowledge, experience, ethics, and licenses in mind.


So, the problem is not YOU. The problem is a lack of personalized business education, guidance, and support from MORE EXPERIENCED NURSE ENTREPRENEURS. Without this, it's normal for us to feel overwhelmed about starting businesses!

Why Should You Listen to Me?

Hello. I'm Sharon Burch, MSN, APRN, PHCNS-BC, APHN-BC, HWNC-BC, the founder of New Directions for Nurses and LiberatedNurse.com. 


Before I became a nurse entrepreneur, I was stressed out by my full-time nursing job and desperate to live a more holistically healthy lifestyle. A friend who was learning massage therapy gave me my first massage. I could feel the stress I was carrying fall off my body like armor, and it woke me up to a new vision of what work could look and feel like. 


I had lots of ideas about helping people, but I didn't have business training. I didn't know how to develop my ideas, test them, or market them... but I was determined to figure it out.


Inspired by my friend, I got massage therapy training and started doing massage in my home "on the side" of my full-time nursing job. That was in 1984. In 1989, I went into the massage therapy business full time, co-created a group practice in a medical center, and reached my goal of having a balanced, healthy lifestyleIn 1993, I added health coaching to my massage practice.


In 1997, I wrote a pathology textbook for massage therapists and in 1999, I pioneered in selling continuing education (CE) courses online to holistic nurses and nationally-certified massage therapists. My life felt peaceful, abundant, and fulfilling!
Sharon Burch, MSN nurse entrepreneur mentor
I was free to live my dream life, first off-grid in Hawaii, then on a beautiful lake with my partner and our dogs, adventuring whenever we pleased.

My Goal Was Freedom!


In 2001, I took my business 100% online and started enjoying the "laptop lifestyle."

In 2010, I sold my online CE business and took a couple of years off. During that time, I studied with some of the world’s top online business mentors and translated their approaches into holistic entrepreneurial nursing practices. During the next 10 years, I:

  • Founded and directed the nonprofit "HolisticNursingCE.com" (2012 - 2023)

  • Helped establish the nonprofit "Hawaii Yoga Institute" and served as President of the Board and then Executive Director (2015-2022)

  • With "HolisticNursingCE.com" mostly running itself, I served as the Holistic Nurse Practice Specialist position at the AHNA (2016-2019)

  • I worked part-time as a Health & Wellness Nurse Coach at the Atma Integrative Medical Clinic (2019-2021)

In 2022, the Liberated Nurse Business Incubator was born!

In the Liberated Nurse Business Incubator program, you will

  • Structure your business so your activities are safely within your license
  • Identify a high-impact problem you’re equipped to help clients solve
  • Verify your service’s value by testing it with real users
  • Market and sell your service consistently, earning reliable income and rave reviews from the people you serve
  • Create a sustainable business plan to guide you into the future

Our students say...

"I was stuck in fear and didn't know how to build a business. Once I started the Incubator, the feedback helped me get past my 'imposter syndrome' feelings and develop self-confidence. Now I'm on my way to creating a viable business!" ~ Grace Orosz, RN-BC, HN-BC

"I started with no business education or experience. Within the first several months of the Incubator lessons and coaching, I secured my first contract and leveraged that opportunity to propel me forward in the growth of my business." ~ Maria Loebach, BSN, RN, HTCP
