• 0:00
  Welcome to Frontline Static, we will get to hear interviews with
• 0:02
  some of my clients journeys of getting into flight and how they
• 0:05
  utilize coaching to help them create success of getting hired
• 0:08
  with less confusion and more ease.
• 0:10
  Make your dream a reality of getting into flight.
• 0:12
  Listen in as you hear some of the stories of the people
• 0:14
  getting there and come join the flight prep group.
• 0:16
  Hey you guys welcome to the webinar how to jumpstart your
• 0:20
  journey into flight. I am going to do something a
• 0:24
  little bit different. I am going to be running an
• 0:27
  Instagram live as the same time as I am trying to talk to people
• 0:30
  who are on Zoom. So that way if people are
• 0:34
  scrolling on Instagram, they can still join this webinar even
• 0:36
  though they haven't signed up. So today on this training and
• 0:41
  this workshop, I'm going to be talking about how to jumpstart
• 0:44
  your journey into flight. And I really this webinar, I'm
• 0:48
  going to cover the three steps on jumpstarting your journey
• 0:51
  into flight. I'm going to talk about why they
• 0:53
  are so important. And then I'm going to be talking
• 0:56
  to you about the details of the three day jumpstart flight
• 1:00
  course and everything that it entails at the end of the
• 1:05
  session. And I'm also going to be
• 1:07
  answering any questions that you guys gave me as you signed up
• 1:11
  for this webinar and then any questions for those who are on
• 1:14
  the live or who in our attendance today.
• 1:16
  So just a couple housekeeping things that I want to go through
• 1:20
  before we get started. I know I'm looking at my Zoom
• 1:23
  screen. So the people on Instagram Live,
• 1:25
  it might be harder because I'm not directly making eye contact
• 1:28
  with you, but no, I am talking to both of you guys at the same
• 1:31
  time. So for those of you guys who are
• 1:33
  on the Zoom webinar right now, I want to make sure that I get
• 1:37
  each and every question answered that you have.
• 1:40
  So as questions are coming up, I want you to put them in the Q&A
• 1:45
  box down at the bottom. There's AQ and a box.
• 1:48
  Put those there. I'm going to get to those at the
• 1:50
  very end of the workshop today and make sure I get those
• 1:54
  answered for you. And then there's a chat box down
• 1:57
  at the bottom where I am going to make this interactive and be
• 2:00
  talking to you. You can be, I'm going to be
• 2:02
  asking you questions and you can put your answers there.
• 2:05
  And then for those of you guys on Instagram Live that are
• 2:08
  joining me, just know, you know when you put a question in the
• 2:11
  comment box, I can't always see it unless I'm scrolling back
• 2:13
  through. So I want to get to all of your
• 2:15
  questions as well. There is a question box down at
• 2:19
  the bottom on the Instagram Live.
• 2:20
  It's a question mark with a comment box around it.
• 2:23
  Put all your questions. I'm going to make sure to get
• 2:25
  all of those answered as well. So I want to start out by saying
• 2:31
  and introducing myself. For those of you guys who don't
• 2:32
  know me, my name is Janessa. I help nurses and medics get
• 2:36
  into flight nursing and flight paramedicine.
• 2:38
  I've ran this program for the last four years and I help on
• 2:43
  the daily about 50,000 people through my social media, through
• 2:47
  Instagram, and through TikTok really in my programs help get
• 2:51
  help themselves, get hired into flight, get on track, get
• 2:54
  unstuck with clarity in a simple, doable way, without
• 2:58
  hustling and without overworking.
• 2:59
  So today we're going to talk a little bit about that,
• 3:01
  especially if you're stuck and you know that you want to get
• 3:04
  into flight nursing or flight paramedicine and really don't
• 3:07
  know where to start. We're going to talk about the
• 3:09
  three simple steps to get started today.
• 3:12
  I also wanted to tell you a little bit about my background.
• 3:14
  If this is the first time that you're kind of getting to know
• 3:16
  me and interacting with me. I was a flight nurse for about 7
• 3:20
  years prior to that. So I've been a nurse about 15
• 3:23
  years prior to that. I did ICU for about four years.
• 3:27
  And in the seven years that I flew, I sat in a lot of flight
• 3:31
  interviews. I helped to train a lot of
• 3:34
  nurses and a lot of medics during that time.
• 3:36
  And I know what flight companies are looking for in their
• 3:38
  candidates. So after doing that, I've
• 3:41
  created an entire program that helps you map out your plan,
• 3:45
  learn how to do ride alongs, and get hired in a shorter amount of
• 3:48
  time. The people who come join my
• 3:50
  programs and my courses cut their timelines mostly in half
• 3:53
  and are getting to flight quicker than the three-year
• 3:57
  time. And you guys are here because
• 4:00
  you really want flight. Or maybe you're on the fence and
• 4:03
  you're on the cusp of like, should I do it?
• 4:05
  Should I not? We're going to definitely talk
• 4:06
  about that and address it today. Common reasons that people fail
• 4:11
  or don't even get started towards this flight goal is they
• 4:13
  have thoughts of I don't know enough, I don't have a time and
• 4:16
  experience, or I simply don't know how to get started.
• 4:20
  So today I'm going to talk to you on this jump start, your
• 4:23
  journey to flight, how to get started, the three simple steps
• 4:26
  to be taking to get you moving forward.
• 4:29
  I want to first start out though by telling you guys that you
• 4:33
  belong here in flight. You are 100% capable of getting
• 4:37
  here. And it's not just for the Super
• 4:40
  smart people or the people who get straight A's or the great
• 4:43
  test takers or the strongest people in the field.
• 4:46
  I want you guys to know I am so weak at Test taking.
• 4:50
  I'm not a good test taker. You asked asked me a pathophys
• 4:53
  question. I have a hard time answering it.
• 4:56
  I'm not a super strong person. I'm a very 52 petite frame and I
• 5:02
  did it. And if I can do it, you can too.
• 5:05
  Would it really takes and what this industry is really looking
• 5:07
  for people is people who have a fire and are committed to this
• 5:11
  goal of getting to flight. It requires people who are
• 5:15
  strong team members who want to always commit themselves to
• 5:19
  doing a good job and want to always get what they need for
• 5:22
  their patients and their families.
• 5:23
  This is what I believe made me really good at a job where maybe
• 5:28
  I wasn't the smartest candidate in the room, maybe I wasn't the
• 5:31
  best test taker, maybe I wasn't the strongest person.
• 5:34
  But what made me really good was my critical thinking skills, how
• 5:38
  to work well under pressure, and a deep desire to always get what
• 5:43
  my patients needed and for their families and to work at the
• 5:46
  highest level of teamwork in this team and partnership of
• 5:51
  working with the flight medic and a pilot at the same time.
• 5:54
  Teamwork was my favorite part of the job.
• 5:56
  Working with advanced teams who wanted to be there as much as
• 5:59
  me, and then a high acuity level of patients.
• 6:03
  The adrenaline rush was so great, but I just loved the
• 6:06
  teamwork. That's the thing I miss the
• 6:08
  most. I retired about two years ago
• 6:10
  because I went all in on my coaching business.
• 6:13
  I wanted to help people gain the skills and work through the
• 6:17
  process of getting to flight who wanted it to.
• 6:19
  And since then, I've helped dozens of nurses and medics get
• 6:22
  hired into flight and be successful in their journey of
• 6:25
  however long they want to fly. And I've helped them transition
• 6:28
  into it. I've helped lots of people get
• 6:31
  hired before the three-year mark.
• 6:32
  And I'm just so proud of this program that I created.
• 6:36
  So today I'm going to talk to you about the Jumpstart Flight
• 6:38
  course. I'm going to talk to you about
• 6:39
  the three steps that we're going to cover in that course, why
• 6:42
  they're so important. And then I'm going to go into
• 6:44
  detail about what is included in the in the course.
• 6:47
  And for those of you guys who stay on, I have a special offer
• 6:51
  for you at the very end. So you want to keep watching so
• 6:55
  that you can see what that special offer is.
• 6:58
  And again, for those of you guys, if you were just joining
• 7:00
  the live or you're just joining the webinar, that's OK.
• 7:03
  I want to make sure I get to all of your questions.
• 7:05
  That's what this meeting is about.
• 7:07
  So if you're on the webinar, make sure you put that at the
• 7:10
  Q&A box in the bottom. And if you're in the Instagram
• 7:13
  Live, make sure you put that in the question box at the bottom.
• 7:15
  And I will get to all of those at the end.
• 7:18
  In this webinar, How to Jumpstart Your Journey to
• 7:21
  flight, I'm going to cover the three steps that will help you
• 7:24
  get unstuck, that will help you take actions right now to get
• 7:27
  started on your journey to flight.
• 7:29
  And I'm going to talk to you about why they are so important
• 7:33
  and give you the details on the three day course, August
• 7:35
  Jumpstart flight course that I'm offering this month.
• 7:38
  I'm going to go into depth on how each of these steps in this
• 7:42
  live workshop in the three days when you join it in August on
• 7:47
  three separate days. I'm going to cover each topic
• 7:49
  and what the course includes on this workshop today.
• 7:54
  But I'm going to show you how to jump start your journey in a
• 7:57
  doable way, how to get unstuck, how to get clear, and just how
• 8:00
  to get started and start taking actions.
• 8:03
  I have to 1st talk about the three things that people think
• 8:09
  that they need to focus on to get into flight.
• 8:11
  And I want to focus on these because everybody, almost
• 8:15
  everybody who comes to work with me thinks that they need to
• 8:18
  focus on one of these three things.
• 8:20
  And one of these three things that they think they need to
• 8:22
  focus on is actually taking them longer to get to flight or
• 8:25
  having them fail altogether. And so I think it's really
• 8:28
  important to start out with the three common mistakes that I see
• 8:31
  people making. And then we'll move into the
• 8:33
  three things you want to start working on, the three steps you
• 8:35
  want to start taking. So the first common mistake that
• 8:38
  I see people working on trying to get to flight is focusing on
• 8:43
  time and experience. If you are on the live or you
• 8:46
  are on the webinar with me, me right now, raise your hand or
• 8:49
  comment if that's what you thought that you needed to get
• 8:52
  to flight or if that's what you're currently doing is
• 8:55
  focusing on time and experience. Now what I see by this, an
• 8:59
  example of this is I see people working both ER and ICUI see
• 9:04
  people jumping around units, departments, hospitals because
• 9:08
  they want to try to get to a level 1.
• 9:10
  They think that flight companies are only looking for level 1
• 9:13
  trauma experience. They think that flight companies
• 9:15
  are looking for people both ER and ICU or PEDs or cardiac
• 9:20
  devices. And I see them jump from one
• 9:23
  department to the next department to the next
• 9:25
  apartment, spending years, sometimes decades getting into
• 9:29
  flight. A common amount of time that I
• 9:32
  see people who come and join my groups or my courses.
• 9:36
  They have been working towards this goal for five years, 10
• 9:39
  years. I have people in my program
• 9:41
  right now that have been working towards cycle for 30 years
• 9:44
  because they have this thought that time and experience will
• 9:47
  give them confidence to make them look better in flight,
• 9:50
  which is not true. Jumping around is the worst
• 9:54
  thing that you can do for yourself.
• 9:55
  Flight companies are looking for you to stay in one department,
• 9:59
  either ER or ICU. One is not better than the
• 10:03
  other. I always offer for you to pick
• 10:06
  either ER or ICU, the one that you're most excited about, the
• 10:10
  unit or department that you're most excited about.
• 10:12
  That's where your critical thinking skills are going to
• 10:15
  grow. So one is not better than the
• 10:17
  other. Does not matter if it's a rural
• 10:19
  bed ER or ICU or if it's a level 1 trauma.
• 10:23
  ERICU, we hired people all over from rural bed critical access
• 10:29
  centers to level 1. They are not just looking for
• 10:32
  level 1 from trauma nurses. You create very different nurses
• 10:35
  with the depending on if you're a rural bed or you're or a level
• 10:38
  1. For example, rural bed ERICU
• 10:40
  nurses, they are super resourceful.
• 10:43
  They work with very little resources.
• 10:45
  Sometimes they don't have an intensivist or physician on
• 10:47
  call, so they have to work with their protocols and work really
• 10:50
  well as a team. They don't always have the
• 10:52
  supplies or things that they need.
• 10:53
  So it requires them to think very differently and be really
• 10:57
  resourceful. Level 1 trauma nurses or level 2
• 11:00
  or Level 3. I think I came from a Level 3.
• 11:02
  I'm not even sure if it was like a Level 3 ICU when I was there.
• 11:07
  But you usually have residents or specialties or a lot of
• 11:11
  different patient diagnosis that you see.
• 11:13
  So you get to be around a lot of residents, a lot of different
• 11:17
  physicians, a lot of different specialties, a lot of different
• 11:19
  patient diagnosis. So that's what's kind of offered
• 11:21
  for you as you're working in some of these ERS that are a
• 11:26
  certain level of training. But again, it doesn't matter
• 11:29
  what level and you want to stick on focus using on one
• 11:33
  department, ER or ICU, any specialty of any of those is
• 11:37
  fine. You do not need pediatric, you
• 11:39
  do not need cardiac devices. You will learn and get all of
• 11:42
  that training as you hop into flight.
• 11:44
  The biggest reason why they want critical care, and I'll talk
• 11:47
  about this again, is because they want to see your critical
• 11:50
  thinking skills grow. There is no possible way before
• 11:54
  you get into flight that you can see every patient diagnosis and
• 11:57
  know everything that is going on because in three years you're
• 12:01
  just not going to get that. So there there's a reason why in
• 12:05
  the requirements for flight positions, it does not say you
• 12:07
  need ERICU, PEDs, cardiac devices for most like companies
• 12:12
  in the United States, it says ER or ICU.
• 12:15
  So that's a common air that I see people focusing on.
• 12:19
  It's taking them longer, they're stacking years and you really
• 12:23
  just want to focus in on one department so you could grow
• 12:25
  your leadership qualities. Flight companies are looking for
• 12:28
  who you are, what you value, the team player you are, and
• 12:33
  focusing on the leadership qualities where you go above and
• 12:35
  beyond your staff position in the current department that
• 12:38
  you're working. So that's why that is so
• 12:40
  important. I know I'm going to answer that
• 12:41
  question again because that's the most common question that I
• 12:43
  get asked. So stacking time and experience
• 12:46
  is not what's going to put you ahead of the game or get you
• 12:48
  hired. I'm going to talk about what
• 12:49
  will in just a minute. So #2 the second common theme
• 12:53
  that I see people focusing on is getting all of the
• 12:57
  certifications. How many of you guys know people
• 13:01
  who get out there and want to get the CN and then say, hey,
• 13:06
  I'm going to get the CCRN and then they're like, well, let's
• 13:09
  just get my burn certification. Let's go get my trauma
• 13:11
  certification. Certifications or courses.
• 13:14
  I want to classify this together.
• 13:17
  Now, when I was trying to get into flight and I almost like
• 13:19
  guess this was about 10 years ago, a certification was
• 13:22
  required. You needed either an ER or an
• 13:25
  ICU certification. So you needed either your CEN or
• 13:28
  the CCR to get hired into flight.
• 13:30
  Now flight companies are completely moving away from
• 13:33
  having any required certification.
• 13:35
  The reason for this is because they are now requiring for
• 13:39
  flight to have the CFRN within one to two years of being hired
• 13:44
  with a flight company. I actually don't recommend
• 13:47
  getting this ahead of time for the single reason that flight
• 13:50
  companies, once you get hired, will pay for your books,
• 13:52
  resources, and certification to take it.
• 13:55
  So wait until you get hired to get your CFRN.
• 13:58
  They will pay for all of that and then they will pay for you
• 14:02
  to take it. So that's why I say always wait.
• 14:05
  I'm gonna tell you what things you want to be focusing on.
• 14:08
  Now. I say this too because I am a
• 14:11
  terrible test taker. You guys, it took me multiple
• 14:14
  attempts to pass my CCRN, multiple attempts to pass my
• 14:17
  CFRN. The reason why I kept going at
• 14:20
  it is because I didn't make it mean anything about me.
• 14:22
  I knew I was a really good critical care nurse even though
• 14:25
  I wasn't passing it. I knew it was simply because I'm
• 14:27
  a poor test taker. So you do not want to spend time
• 14:31
  working on these certifications because companies don't even
• 14:34
  need them. And again, it does not make you
• 14:36
  look better whether you have them or not.
• 14:38
  You want to be able to showcase who you are, what you value, the
• 14:41
  team player you are. If you are a great test taker,
• 14:44
  then you can go ahead and get these certs, but it will not
• 14:47
  make you, it will not make you look any better.
• 14:50
  So that's one thing that I want to talk about because I see a
• 14:53
  lot of people spending time, money, energy focusing on trauma
• 14:57
  courses, certs that they think will make them look better and
• 15:00
  that is not what flight companies are looking for.
• 15:02
  I help lots of people inside my courses and my programs get
• 15:05
  hired with 0 certifications and 0 trauma courses.
• 15:11
  If there's a trauma course that they require, they will either
• 15:14
  list out on the application or most flight companies now are
• 15:17
  looking at requiring the TPATC. And I never say get that ahead
• 15:20
  of time. It's an expensive course with
• 15:22
  expensive resources and flight companies will pay for you to
• 15:25
  have that trauma course ahead of time or that trauma course once
• 15:27
  you get hired. The third thing that I see
• 15:31
  people focusing on that's taking them longer to get there, and I
• 15:33
  kind of mentioned that in this one.
• 15:34
  I grouped them a little bit together with certs and I didn't
• 15:37
  mean to do that, but it's focusing on getting trauma
• 15:40
  courses. So I see people taking a lot of
• 15:43
  these courses. There's a ton out there.
• 15:45
  There's PHP LS, there's, I think I, I got the ATCN, lots of
• 15:52
  different trauma courses. And what I would recommend with
• 15:55
  this is if you're working in an ERICU already, most of your
• 15:58
  departments require you to have one of those.
• 16:01
  Just get the one that you're going to get for free.
• 16:04
  So if you get that offer for free in your ERICU, just take
• 16:08
  that one. Again, I'm going to say most
• 16:10
  flight companies don't require any trauma course.
• 16:13
  And if they do, then if they want you enough as a candidate,
• 16:17
  then they are going to hire you and have you take that traumas
• 16:20
  course. The flight company that I worked
• 16:22
  for, which is the biggest flight company in the United States
• 16:25
  with multiple bases, they required the TPATC and they paid
• 16:29
  for you to have that after you got hired and that was good for
• 16:31
  four years. So don't spend time, don't spend
• 16:35
  money, don't spend energy outside of the long shift that
• 16:38
  you are working, doing these trauma courses and taking these
• 16:41
  certifications. You're wasting time, you're
• 16:43
  wasting money, and your focus is taking a time away from what you
• 16:47
  really want to be focusing on. OK, if you guys have been
• 16:52
  focusing on any three of those things, getting more time,
• 16:55
  experience working all these different departments, getting
• 16:58
  multiple certifications or focusing on getting lots of
• 17:02
  trauma courses, put that in the comments.
• 17:04
  Let me know because this is what I see commonly have people take
• 17:07
  longer or fail to get there. OK, you guys ready?
• 17:12
  I'm going to talk to you about the three things that you do
• 17:14
  want to focus on that will jump start your journey into getting
• 17:17
  into flight and get you unstuck and creating momentum.
• 17:20
  I want to 1st talk about creating momentum and why this
• 17:22
  is so important. You got to create momentum.
• 17:26
  You have to get off the fence. What stops most people from
• 17:30
  getting to flight is they're undecided and being on the fence
• 17:35
  of indecision is the worst place that you can be.
• 17:38
  I see most people undecided because they think that they
• 17:41
  have to be 100% confident before going for this goal.
• 17:44
  And I will tell you, you will never be 100% confident.
• 17:48
  I flew for seven years and with each call I ran over 1000 calls.
• 17:53
  With each call that I ran, I had doubt and fear in every single
• 17:57
  one of them. I was never 100% confident.
• 17:59
  So get off the fence. Commit to going all in on this
• 18:02
  goal. When you do that, I promise you,
• 18:05
  you will create momentum. When momentum starts, the doors
• 18:08
  will start opening up for you. You will become clear.
• 18:11
  Your confidence will grow. You can't wait for the
• 18:14
  confidence to be committed. You have to start taking actions
• 18:17
  with the fear and the doubt and then the confidence will grow
• 18:19
  with you. It's just like when you started
• 18:21
  nursing school when you had no idea what to expect as a nurse
• 18:25
  or no idea what to expect in nursing school.
• 18:28
  Once you started to take the action, even though you had
• 18:31
  doubt, that's what created the momentum to keep going and
• 18:34
  that's what created the confidence with each clinical
• 18:37
  that you went to and with each clinical week and department
• 18:41
  that you went to, you grew your level of confidence.
• 18:43
  That's the same thing, but you've got to get off the fence
• 18:46
  and you have to commit to going all in.
• 18:48
  So if you're ready to commit to going all in, I'm going to give
• 18:50
  you the three steps to jump start your journey.
• 18:52
  And then I'm going to talk about why each one is so important.
• 18:55
  So here's the first step. The first step is mindset.
• 18:59
  This is the very smallest, least thing that people are thinking
• 19:05
  about. They think that they can take a
• 19:07
  bunch of actions to get to flight, but you have to start
• 19:10
  working on believing that flight is possible for you, even if you
• 19:14
  don't 100% believe it. Now, mindset is everything.
• 19:18
  If you don't believe that it's possible for you to become a
• 19:21
  flight nurse or a flight medic, it will just never happen to
• 19:23
  you. You will feel stuck and you will
• 19:25
  pull back. So creating mindset and belief
• 19:28
  in yourself is key. This is what you did when you
• 19:31
  started nursing school. This is what you did when you
• 19:33
  started medic school. This is what you did when you
• 19:37
  started critical care or working as a medic.
• 19:40
  You didn't know how to do it, but you started taking actions
• 19:42
  and you started growing the tiny belief that it was possible for
• 19:45
  you. So I'm going to talk to you
• 19:47
  about flight mindset and why that is so important.
• 19:51
  We're going to work on growing your confidence with the fear
• 19:54
  and the doubt at the same time, without having the skills and
• 19:58
  without knowing exactly what the position looks like ahead of
• 20:01
  time. We're not going to get rid of
• 20:03
  the doubt. I'm going to teach you how to
• 20:05
  start taking actions with it. This is really important,
• 20:09
  thinking about yourself as a flight nurse or a flight medic
• 20:11
  now because as soon as you get an offer, people in my programs
• 20:16
  and courses are transitioning more confidently into these high
• 20:20
  level roles because they have already been thinking as a
• 20:24
  flight nurse or flight medic before.
• 20:26
  A lot of people that come to work with me are only thinking
• 20:29
  about getting hired. They're constantly, what's the
• 20:31
  process? How do I do it?
• 20:32
  How do I make myself look like the best applicant?
• 20:35
  But the question you should be asking yourself is not only
• 20:38
  that, but how do I transition confidently after I'm put into
• 20:42
  this new role? And so this is what we're going
• 20:45
  to work on in the flight mindset.
• 20:47
  The flight mindset is how do you grow this belief in yourself
• 20:50
  while having fear at the same time?
• 20:52
  And how do you work on believing that you're the flight nurse and
• 20:55
  flight medic now before even doing the job?
• 20:57
  So that's number one. This is so important #2 Oh, I
• 21:01
  want to tell you a story with this flight mindset.
• 21:04
  First, I had a client that I was working with, one-on-one, and
• 21:10
  she was a nurse and she came to work with me because I think she
• 21:13
  had been an ER nurse for eight years or 10 years, and she just
• 21:16
  had never had the confidence for to pursue it.
• 21:18
  So she worked with me one-on-one and we were getting ready for
• 21:23
  her first flight interview. And in the flight interview,
• 21:27
  she, we, we tried to come up with some belief that she could
• 21:30
  like tap back into while they were asking her her psychosocial
• 21:34
  questions. And the only belief that she
• 21:36
  could really feel and get into is I just want to fly.
• 21:41
  She's like, I don't know how I'm going to get there yet.
• 21:43
  And but I'm so committed to this goal and I am just ready to move
• 21:47
  on. I feel like working ER is not
• 21:51
  where I'm meant to land. It's not where I'm meant to be.
• 21:54
  I feel like flight is where I'm meant to be.
• 21:55
  And I just want to fly. And I said, OK, great.
• 21:58
  This is the belief we want to hold on to during your
• 22:00
  interview. So she had the interview and the
• 22:03
  interview, of course, is really tough.
• 22:04
  She had her first flight interview.
• 22:05
  She got welcomed in and she said, I don't know how I did,
• 22:09
  but she said the entire time I just kept thinking, I just want
• 22:13
  to fly. And I said great, like let's
• 22:16
  evaluate the interview. We evaluated.
• 22:18
  Well, it didn't go well. Does she want to do it
• 22:20
  differently? Well, about a week later, she
• 22:21
  comes back to me and she goes, guess what?
• 22:23
  I said what? She goes, I got the offer and I
• 22:26
  said, that's incredible. Like how are you feeling?
• 22:28
  And she's like, well, I'm feeling great, but I want to
• 22:30
  share with you why I got the offer because I asked the base
• 22:34
  manager, how did I get it? And because she, we knew and the
• 22:39
  base manager told her she was up against people who were previous
• 22:41
  flight nurses that were trying to move into this company and
• 22:43
  this base and this position. And she, so she thought during
• 22:46
  the whole interview, there's no way I'm going to get it.
• 22:48
  They're going to give it to these more experienced people
• 22:50
  who have already been flying. And after she received the job,
• 22:53
  the base manager came back to her and said the reason why we
• 22:57
  gave it to you is because we just realized you just wanted to
• 23:00
  fly. And she said this was incredible
• 23:03
  because I never said this one time during the interview, but
• 23:06
  this was the thought I kept thinking over and over and over
• 23:09
  again. And this space manager hired her
• 23:12
  because she said I could just tell you had it in you that you
• 23:15
  wanted to fly. And that's the kind of person
• 23:17
  that we want to welcome onto this team and into this base.
• 23:19
  So This is why mindset is so important.
• 23:21
  So that is #1 and I tell that story, I worked with her almost
• 23:26
  four years ago. It's just like incredible
• 23:28
  because it really does matter what you're thinking and
• 23:30
  believing about yourself, even when you have fear and doubt and
• 23:33
  the actions that you're taking, because people pick up on that.
• 23:35
  Flight managers pick up on that flight, Flight crews pick up on
• 23:39
  that as you're doing right along.
• 23:40
  So This is why it matters. OK, Step 2 that you want to
• 23:43
  focus on to jump start your journey to flight.
• 23:45
  You want to map out your plan. You want to get out of confusion
• 23:48
  and know exactly the steps to be taking all along the way.
• 23:51
  You want to map out your plan as soon as you know that you want
• 23:55
  flight. I knew that I wanted flight as
• 23:57
  soon as a nursing school and I have a lot of people who come
• 23:59
  and work with me prior to nursing school and in nursing
• 24:01
  school. And I want to tell you guys, you
• 24:03
  are a leg up. You are cutting your time in
• 24:06
  half when you map out your plan. If you know and you get started
• 24:09
  in nursing school, we're going to get you there absolutely
• 24:12
  before the three-year mark because you've started and
• 24:14
  you've stayed on track. Mapping out your plan is so
• 24:17
  important because it gets you out of confusion.
• 24:19
  You no longer asking what is the process?
• 24:22
  What should I be working on on each of the steps?
• 24:24
  What should I be working on this month?
• 24:25
  What should I be working on this year?
• 24:27
  You know exactly what to be working on no matter where
• 24:30
  you're starting. Inside the jump, the August
• 24:33
  Jumpstart flight course, I am going to map out every single
• 24:36
  person's plan. I'm going to tell you no matter
• 24:38
  where you're starting, from pre nursing school all the way to if
• 24:42
  you've worked 3 plus years of ERICU or as a medic, what you
• 24:46
  should be focusing on. So having a mapped out plan is
• 24:48
  key. It keeps you on track, it keeps
• 24:51
  you out of confusion. It keeps you growing your level
• 24:54
  of confidence and focusing on the the right tasks, the right
• 24:59
  actions, the things that will keep you on track.
• 25:01
  When you start to face obstacles, when you start to
• 25:04
  have doubt, you have this mapped out plan that you can go back to
• 25:08
  and get support and be like, is that a part of my plan?
• 25:10
  Or am I trying to get more certain courses that I don't
• 25:12
  need? So having this plan is key.
• 25:15
  This plan will cut your timeline in half.
• 25:17
  I'm helping people who come to work with me get hired in half
• 25:21
  the amount of time and that is simply because they have a
• 25:23
  mapped out plan. I'm going to show you no matter
• 25:26
  where you're starting in the August Jumpstart flight course,
• 25:29
  what to be working on, what your exact individualized plan is.
• 25:33
  OK, let's talk about the third thing.
• 25:37
  This is not in level of importance, but I think that
• 25:39
  this one is a very big important thing.
• 25:43
  It's something I didn't do prior to getting hired in the flight
• 25:47
  and this is a thing that's getting people get hired before
• 25:50
  their three-year mark and it's so fun.
• 25:52
  So the third thing that you want to be focusing on to jump start
• 25:56
  your journey to flight is doing ride alongs and making
• 25:59
  connections with flight companies.
• 26:02
  There is a couple reasons why you want to be doing this.
• 26:05
  One, who doesn't want to do a ride along?
• 26:08
  Sit in that helicopter or airplane seat.
• 26:11
  You get to sit in that seat, you get a taste what it feels like
• 26:14
  to do the job. You get to see what it feels
• 26:16
  like. You get to see what the teamwork
• 26:18
  is like with the types of patients they have, the acuity,
• 26:22
  the pre hospital experience. As a nurse, I never got that
• 26:25
  prior to flight. I never got to do a ride along.
• 26:29
  Companies want you to do ride alongs, you just have to ask for
• 26:33
  them. I teach you inside the August
• 26:35
  Jumpstart Flight course exactly how to ask for a ride along and
• 26:38
  how to get ride along. I recommend inside my programs
• 26:42
  and my courses to do 6 to 8 ride alongs or making connections
• 26:45
  with flight companies a year. So about 3:00 to 4:00 in a six
• 26:50
  month period. When you learn how to start
• 26:54
  doing them, which I'm going to teach you inside this course,
• 26:56
  the August Jumpstart Flight course, you will be able to
• 27:00
  start doing them right away. I recommend doing one every
• 27:03
  other month. But I in the last jump start
• 27:05
  flight course that I ran, someone did 6 in one month.
• 27:10
  She started just reaching out to companies in the way that I told
• 27:13
  her how to and she did 6 right along in one month.
• 27:17
  Now I don't recommend that because a lot of you guys are
• 27:20
  working a full time job or multiple jobs and you just don't
• 27:23
  have the time to do that. But with the simple way that I'm
• 27:26
  teaching you how to do that and reach out, you have the
• 27:29
  opportunity to do 1 every other month.
• 27:32
  So if you come join the jump start, the jumps, the August
• 27:34
  Jumpstart flight course, we will get you one scheduled before the
• 27:37
  end of the month in August. The second reason why doing
• 27:42
  these ride alongs is so important is companies get to
• 27:45
  know you and you get to know them.
• 27:48
  I really call this process speed dating.
• 27:51
  Ride alongs is like speed dating.
• 27:53
  You want to speed date a bunch of flight companies before you
• 27:57
  marry them or you get an offer to them.
• 27:59
  Speed dating is is important because you get to know them.
• 28:03
  You get to know what their company values for everybody.
• 28:07
  We value different things. So for example, some people in
• 28:10
  my program value, they value education, they value teamwork,
• 28:16
  they value culture, they they value management and support in
• 28:21
  their team and in their base and in their company.
• 28:23
  So everybody values different things.
• 28:25
  And you want to think about what that is.
• 28:26
  I teach you exactly how to prepare for these right alongs
• 28:29
  and how to ask for them. And so in doing these right
• 28:33
  alongs, you're finding out which each of these bases, each of
• 28:35
  these companies value. And then the second part of this
• 28:39
  is they get to see you, they get to date you, they get to see
• 28:43
  what you value. And for everybody that is
• 28:46
  different. For me, it's patient rapport,
• 28:48
  it's highest level of thinking, it's very good teamwork at the
• 28:53
  highest level under pressure, it's always putting a best
• 28:57
  effort in and the best foot forward for me.
• 28:59
  And so I'm looking for that in my teams.
• 29:01
  For example, if I was doing ride alongs.
• 29:03
  So 2 reasons why ride along is so important.
• 29:06
  You get to sit in that helicopter seat, they get to
• 29:09
  know you and you get to know them.
• 29:10
  Ride alongs are the things that will get you an interview and
• 29:14
  get you an offer. Flight is so competitive that
• 29:17
  you do not want to wait to look for online applications and
• 29:22
  interviews. If you are seeing an online
• 29:24
  application or interview or you're waiting for that, you are
• 29:27
  too late. It is so competitive that those
• 29:30
  positions that are posted are already spoken for and they're
• 29:33
  spoken for people who've been doing ongoing ride alongs and
• 29:36
  making connections. I'm seeing flight companies now
• 29:40
  use ride alongs as a prerequisite to even bring you
• 29:42
  in for an interview. So another reason why you want
• 29:44
  to do that. And I'm also seeing ride alongs
• 29:47
  build a roster for possible candidates to do interviews 6 to
• 29:51
  18 months, 6 to a year and a half ahead of time before
• 29:56
  there's an opening. So they're creating rosters of
• 29:59
  people that they want to bring in for interviews and as
• 30:02
  applicants ahead of time. And they're doing this by ride
• 30:05
  along. So you want to be doing right
• 30:07
  along so that you get invited to these interviews so that you get
• 30:10
  invited before your three-year mark.
• 30:12
  I had someone that came to me about, oh, was it three years
• 30:17
  ago? And she was working float pool,
• 30:22
  float pool, like critical care. So I see an ER at the time and
• 30:26
  she's like, I'm working on getting my CEN and I'm trying to
• 30:28
  work critical care as much as I can.
• 30:31
  And I'm thinking about getting a second job at a level 1.
• 30:33
  And I told her, listen, we're going to cut all of that out.
• 30:36
  And she's like, are you serious? And I said, yes, we're going to
• 30:38
  get you hired in right now into either ER or ICU so you can
• 30:42
  focus on your leadership qualities and we're going to get
• 30:44
  you doing right alongs now with your matched out plan.
• 30:47
  And she's like, OK, let's do it. So she decided to go into an ER
• 30:52
  and I don't even think it was a level at all.
• 30:54
  ERI think it was like a smaller bed roll ER.
• 30:57
  She took that position full time.
• 30:58
  She started just doing a bunch of ride alongs and she got asked
• 31:02
  to sit at an interview with just one year of ER experience.
• 31:06
  And you ask me how that's even possible.
• 31:08
  And that is because she did ride along, she made connections and
• 31:11
  these teams were like, we really, really want her as a
• 31:14
  team player, as a, as a part of our team to work for our base.
• 31:18
  So she interviewed and they told her just come to the interview
• 31:21
  because we're trying to fill our roster of people ahead of time.
• 31:23
  We actually don't think there's going to be a position open for
• 31:26
  another 6 to 12 months. So six months to a year.
• 31:28
  And she's like, great, like I would love to sit in an
• 31:30
  interview. So we prepped her for the
• 31:31
  interview. We got her ready, she did the
• 31:33
  interview. They didn't really tell her
• 31:35
  anything after that. And then three months later, she
• 31:38
  got a phone call and she said, Hey, we want to offer you a
• 31:40
  position. And this was three months after
• 31:42
  doing this quote UN quote interview without an opening
• 31:45
  yet. And they offered her a position
• 31:47
  with no certification, one year of ER and just focusing on ride
• 31:52
  alongs and making connections and doing this interview three
• 31:55
  months prior to an opening happening.
• 31:58
  And so This is why ride alongs and making connections is so
• 32:01
  important. I'm going to teach you exactly
• 32:03
  how to go about doing this in this August Jumpstart Flight
• 32:06
  course so that you can secure a ride along in August and start
• 32:10
  doing them right away. OK.
• 32:13
  People who are working with me in these courses and in these
• 32:17
  programs, I'm noticing because they haven't mapped out plan,
• 32:21
  they've been doing right alongs and making connections.
• 32:23
  They're cutting their timelines in half.
• 32:25
  They're getting hired in their first one to two flight
• 32:27
  interviews. I am now having people who have
• 32:29
  worked with me since nursing school and they've cut off so
• 32:32
  much of their time of getting to flight.
• 32:34
  They've known exactly how to stay on track and they're
• 32:36
  getting hired in their first one to two flight interviews.
• 32:39
  And this is really important because flight interviews are
• 32:41
  few and far in between because it is so competitive.
• 32:44
  So being asked to be in a flight interview, let alone getting
• 32:47
  hired in them, is really key. And they're prepared and they're
• 32:51
  ready and they're transitioning more confidently into their
• 32:54
  flight roles, either as a flight nurse or a flight medic with a
• 32:57
  shorter amount of orientation. And that's just because they've
• 33:00
  been working on their flight mindset from day one that they
• 33:02
  know that they've won flight. OK, so this is the end of the
• 33:06
  training today. How to jumpstart your journey to
• 33:08
  flight. These are the three things,
• 33:10
  again, that you think that you need to be working on to get to
• 33:12
  flight time and experience. Getting certifications, taking
• 33:17
  more trauma courses, but these are the three things that you
• 33:20
  actually want to be focusing on to jump start your journey into
• 33:23
  flight. Working on your flight men's
• 33:25
  mindset. Growing your belief and
• 33:27
  confidence levels as you're taking actions towards flight.
• 33:31
  Avidly growing the momentum to get started.
• 33:34
  Getting off of the fence. Step 2 is mapping out your plan.
• 33:38
  As soon as you know you want flight nursing, you want to
• 33:41
  start mapping out your plan. Then I have created plan for
• 33:45
  people as soon as nursing school.
• 33:47
  So you want to start mapping out your plan and know exactly what
• 33:49
  steps to be taking the right steps all the way there.
• 33:52
  You want to be growing your confidence, critical thinking
• 33:54
  skills and leadership skills in this mapped out plan.
• 33:56
  I'm going to go over how to map out your plan individually for
• 34:00
  every single person who joins the August Jumpstart flight
• 34:02
  course. The third most important thing
• 34:05
  is ride alongs networking and making connections with flight
• 34:08
  companies. I'm going to show you exactly
• 34:10
  how to get ride along, how to network, how to make connections
• 34:13
  so you can have your first one secured in August.
• 34:17
  I'm gonna now talk to you guys about the August Jumpstart
• 34:20
  flight course and exactly what includes.
• 34:22
  So we talked about the three things to jumpstart your journey
• 34:25
  to flight, your flight mindset, mapping out your plan and doing
• 34:28
  ride alongs and and connecting and networking with companies.
• 34:32
  So in this August Jumpstart flight course that I'm taking
• 34:36
  enrollment for starting today, we are going to be talking about
• 34:41
  on day one, the flight mindset required to work towards this
• 34:44
  goal and be successful. How to get yourself off the
• 34:46
  fence, start growing your confidence and your critical
• 34:49
  thinking skills. How to work through the
• 34:50
  obstacles of I don't know enough I don't have time and enough.
• 34:53
  I don't have enough time and experience to get unstuck and
• 34:56
  start taking forward movement action with the doubt and the
• 35:00
  fear while not being 100% confident.
• 35:02
  I'm going to teach you how to grow your confidence towards
• 35:04
  this goal. And then I'm going to teach you
• 35:06
  the tools that will help you along the way.
• 35:08
  Because what I said in the beginning, even in the seven
• 35:11
  years that I flew, I was never 100% confident, but I knew I
• 35:15
  would always figure it out. I knew I took the doubt with me
• 35:18
  as we landed on every call and my team and I would always
• 35:21
  figure it out. So I'm going to teach you how to
• 35:23
  grow that flight mindset. The second day we're going to
• 35:26
  talk about the step by step process and how to get there.
• 35:29
  I'm going to help you map out your plan from nursing school or
• 35:32
  medic school or EMT school all the way to flight, what you
• 35:35
  should be working on each year and every step of the way.
• 35:38
  And this is workshop so you can come and ask me questions and we
• 35:41
  can workshop your individual plan live as well.
• 35:44
  The reason why you want to have a mapped out plan is so that
• 35:46
  you're not doing more. You guys are busy.
• 35:48
  You live busy lives. Some of you guys are going to
• 35:50
  school still while you're already nurses or medics.
• 35:53
  You have children, you have families, you have other
• 35:55
  responsibilities. So we don't want to be doing
• 35:58
  more. You don't want to hustle and
• 36:00
  overwork to get to flight. You hustle and overwork to get
• 36:02
  to flight. Once you get your flight offer,
• 36:03
  you're going to hustle over work and burnout.
• 36:06
  Nurses, medics, we do not want burnout.
• 36:08
  So I'm going to show you what to be focusing on in the step by
• 36:11
  step process. We're going to map out your
• 36:12
  individualized plan on Day 2. Day three, we're going to talk
• 36:16
  about how to do ride alongs, how to ask for them, how to make
• 36:20
  connections, how to network with light companies.
• 36:23
  So important. And I'm going to show you a
• 36:26
  simple way to do this so that in August, by the end of August,
• 36:29
  you can have one secured and you can start doing 1.
• 36:32
  Doing these ride alongs is going to be important because it's
• 36:35
  going to have them get to know you and you get to know them.
• 36:38
  It's going to put your face and your name out there and it's
• 36:42
  going to just, it's going to be fun.
• 36:44
  When you get your first ride along, you're going to be
• 36:46
  hooked. You're going to want to do
• 36:47
  another one. So that's on day three.
• 36:49
  You're also going to have access to a member portal.
• 36:51
  So I've created a member portal inside of that.
• 36:54
  There's going to be each video for each day.
• 36:56
  So if you can't make it live, that's OK.
• 36:59
  All the replays will be back in there.
• 37:01
  It's best to make it live so you can workshop your plans and how
• 37:04
  to do ride alongs and ask your question live.
• 37:06
  But I know you guys all work shift work so if you can't make
• 37:09
  it live that's OK. All the replays will be inside
• 37:12
  your member portal. You'll have your individual
• 37:14
  login and password and you will have lifetime access to these
• 37:19
  videos. This is not going to be a course
• 37:21
  where you just sit and watch someone talking.
• 37:23
  No, it's going to be highly interactive and you are going to
• 37:26
  have access for a lifetime to all the replays anytime that you
• 37:30
  want. So you're going to have that
• 37:32
  member portal to access the replays and watch for a
• 37:34
  lifetime. The second part of this August
• 37:37
  Jumpstart flight course that I really love, this component of
• 37:39
  it is that you're going to have access to a private community
• 37:42
  group chat. So in this group chat, you're
• 37:45
  going to have ongoing support through this three day course
• 37:48
  from the time that you joined. So let's say you joined today,
• 37:50
  you're going to have ongoing support in this community group
• 37:52
  chat to ask any questions either amongst your peers, the people
• 37:55
  in it or amongst me. So anything that we're covering
• 37:58
  in the course, you can get daily support through that.
• 38:01
  You are going to have access to the community group chat all the
• 38:05
  way till the end of September. So until September 30th, you're
• 38:08
  going to be able to come ask any questions as you're watching the
• 38:11
  replays or coming live or starting to do your ride along
• 38:14
  or getting prepared for your ride along.
• 38:16
  You have until September 30th that community group chat
• 38:20
  access. But again, you'll have the
• 38:22
  replays live for lifetime access.
• 38:24
  Again, it's best to come to live to each day so that we can
• 38:27
  workshop and it's highly interactive together.
• 38:29
  But if you can't, every single call will be recorded and you
• 38:33
  can go back and watch it. All of the courses will be
• 38:36
  delivered via Zoom from the comfort of your own home.
• 38:39
  And all of them will be 1 to 1 1/2 hours each day.
• 38:43
  Each call is going to be at noon Pacific Standard Time.
• 38:46
  And I'm going to go ahead and put the dates in the group chat
• 38:50
  right now so that you know, and then I'm going to say them out
• 38:52
  loud. Also for those of you guys who
• 38:54
  are are on the live, all the information is in my link in my
• 38:59
  bio as well, but I want to put those in there.
• 39:01
  So I'm going to be running this a little bit differently.
• 39:03
  In the past, as I've run the three day Jumpstart course, I've
• 39:06
  ran them as consecutive 3 days. I know that you guys are working
• 39:10
  shift work and you're busy. So I'm doing this a little bit
• 39:12
  different this time. I'm going to be running it
• 39:14
  starting next Friday, August 22nd.
• 39:17
  So next Friday, August 22nd, we're going to work on the
• 39:20
  mindset to have to get to flight.
• 39:22
  Then the second day is going to be the following Monday, August
• 39:24
  25th. We're going to work on the step
• 39:26
  by step process, mapping out your individualized plan and get
• 39:29
  to flight and what right actions to be taking, building your plan
• 39:32
  together. And then that week, that Friday,
• 39:35
  so it's finishing up in a week and a half, will be the
• 39:38
  following. The third day will be Friday,
• 39:40
  August 29th, and I'm going to talk about how to get ride
• 39:43
  alongs, make connections and network for flight companies,
• 39:46
  how to secure first ride along in August.
• 39:48
  So that's the third day and we'll finish it up on Friday,
• 39:51
  August 29th. Again, each session will be
• 39:54
  around an hour to an hour and a half and they're all going to be
• 39:57
  at noon Pacific Standard Time. I am offering this course for
• 40:01
  $97.00 only. Enrollment is going on now
• 40:06
  starting today and it's only going to be going on until next
• 40:10
  Thursday, August 21st. Here's the kicker if you guys

• 42:47
  It will be highly interactive and give you plenty of time each
• 42:51
  day to answer any of the questions that you're bringing
• 42:53
  to the calls and ongoing access in the community group chat to
• 42:58
  ask me any questions as you're re watching the replays or
• 43:00
  anything comes up for you. The number one reason why it
• 43:05
  takes people longer or they fail even all together to get to
• 43:09
  flight is they just don't get started and creating momentum.
• 43:13
  They just wait to be on the fence and they don't work
• 43:17
  towards this goal. They say I'll wait or one time's
• 43:20
  better or when things get easier, but what I know about
• 43:24
  life is that life never gets less busy.
• 43:28
  It never gets easier. And so I'm really going to teach
• 43:31
  you inside the August Jumpstart Flight course how to start
• 43:34
  taking action now. Even in a busy life, even when
• 43:38
  you have a lot of things going on, without the hustling,
• 43:41
  without the overworking, without the burnout.
• 43:43
  We're going to focus on the right key steps to be taking.
• 43:48
  You can purchase this course if you are outside of the US.
• 43:51
  But this course and all my programs, I just teach the
• 43:54
  requirements of how to get into flight in the US.
• 43:57
  So we'll be covering flight requirements, US flight nurse,
• 44:00
  and flight medical requirements. Only you can purchase this
• 44:02
  course. Just know that I am only
• 44:05
  teaching the flight requirements in the US and all of my courses
• 44:07
  and programs are 100% all online, so you can access them
• 44:11
  there. This course is open to anyone
• 44:14
  interested in flight nursing or flight paramedicine, no matter
• 44:17
  where you are during your journey.
• 44:18
  So if you are an EMT, if you are a medic, if you an LVN, if
• 44:22
  you're a nursing student, anybody can purchase this
• 44:25
  course. I'm going to walk you through no
• 44:27
  matter where you're starting and come to live call because we'll
• 44:30
  get you your individual plan mapped out too, of what to be
• 44:33
  doing every step of the way, no matter where where you're
• 44:35
  working. OK, thank you.
• 44:36
  Someone said the link works. Thank you so much.
• 44:38
  OK, great. After the payments made, you're
• 44:42
  going to receive a confirmation e-mail with dates and
• 44:45
  information on how to access the course.
• 44:47
  You're going to get immediate access to the course right away,
• 44:50
  immediate access to the community group chat and you're
• 44:53
  going to be able to walk. Watch the welcome video.
• 44:55
  Before we get started next Friday, I want to end with You
• 44:59
  Belong in Flight. If you were like me and you had
• 45:03
  this nudge in nursing school that this is what you are meant
• 45:06
  to be doing, answer it. Because I promise you that fire
• 45:09
  will continue to burn. It will never go away, and it's
• 45:13
  going to take up so much brain space for you to go back and
• 45:16
  forth, back and forth, back and forth.
• 45:18
  Being on the fence is a lot harder than going all in, even
• 45:21
  if you fail. And so I want to offer you, if
• 45:24
  you've had this urge, if you've had this nudge, if you've had
• 45:27
  this fire like me, that flight is what you're meant to be
• 45:31
  doing, Answer it. And this is the course where I'm
• 45:34
  going to help you gain the confidence to move forward with
• 45:37
  the right actions to be taking to get you started.
• 45:40
  If you want it, I'm going to help you get started.
• 45:43
  And if you want this, I have got you finish this year strong with
• 45:47
  clarity towards this goal. Let's get you a ride along in
• 45:51
  the month of August. Give yourself the best guarantee
• 45:56
  of getting to flight by hiring a mentor, a course and a program
• 45:59
  that is going to get you on track.
• 46:01
  Let's get you a ride along this month and get going.
• 46:04
  Let's get you in the helicopter seat.
• 46:06
  OK, I am going to start with questions.
• 46:09
  So if you are just joining me either on the webinar or on
• 46:13
  Instagram live, I want to go through questions.
• 46:15
  What I am going to start with is questions that you guys e-mail
• 46:20
  me in. So when you registered for the
• 46:23
  Zoom webinar, I asked if you had any questions that you wanted me
• 46:26
  to cover. I'm going to go through every
• 46:28
  single one of those questions that you guys put there and then
• 46:30
  I'm going to take time to answer any questions that you guys have
• 46:33
  on the webinar or Instagram Live right now.
• 46:35
  So if you're just joining me on either, make sure if you're on
• 46:39
  the webinar, you're putting the questions in the Q and A box and
• 46:42
  I see some there already. It's great.
• 46:43
  And if you're on Instagram Live, make sure you're putting them in
• 46:45
  the question box below. I'm going to get to those.
• 46:47
  So I'm going to start first with the ones that you guys emailed
• 46:50
  me in and you submitted when you when you signed up for this
• 46:54
  webinar, because I want to get to all those people and these
• 46:56
  are common questions that I hear all the time.
• 46:59
  So we'll start there. The first one is should I get
• 47:03
  pre hospital training? This is a very common question.
• 47:06
  This goes along with getting all this time and experience.
• 47:09
  So when I interviewed for flight, I had zero pre hospital
• 47:12
  training. I if you are a nurse, pre
• 47:16
  hospital training is not needed. I highly recommend not getting
• 47:19
  it because you're going to learn pre hospital training.
• 47:22
  Once you get hired in the flight.
• 47:23
  This is just going to take you longer and it's not needed.
• 47:29
  So don't spend time getting pre hospital training.
• 47:32
  Get your ride alongs. This is going to give you pre
• 47:33
  hospital training. Ride alongs.
• 47:35
  You're going to see what it's like to be a pre hospital nurse
• 47:37
  and a pre hospital medic. So don't get pre hospital
• 47:40
  training. It's just going to take you
• 47:41
  longer. On the hand, do ride alongs to
• 47:43
  get that type of training. OK, second question, if they
• 47:47
  don't offer ride alongs, then what?
• 47:49
  Great question. So in this course I'm going to
• 47:52
  teach you not only how to ask for ride alongs, but how to make
• 47:55
  connections, how to get base visits, how to go to community
• 47:59
  service events. These are the things that you
• 48:01
  want to be doing. So in the months of summer or
• 48:06
  like really spring all the way to summer, that's usually the
• 48:09
  busiest time right now for flight companies.
• 48:13
  The company I worked for, we had three aircrafts at which is so
• 48:16
  cool. We had a Pilatus and two
• 48:17
  helicopters and what was great about that is we ran about 120
• 48:22
  calls a month in the summer month, which was perfect.
• 48:26
  This is a perfect time to be doing ride alongs because
• 48:28
  companies are running so many calls.
• 48:30
  It also is hot. So depending on where you live,
• 48:32
  it's 105 here in California. So that depends on where you
• 48:36
  live if you can do a ride along as well.
• 48:39
  So that's why I recommend networking and doing base visits
• 48:41
  as well. I teach you how to do that.
• 48:43
  So ride alongs are always the the only thing that you want to
• 48:46
  be doing. Doing base visits and doing
• 48:48
  community outreach events with them is important.
• 48:50
  And they do lots of these. I teach you where to get started
• 48:52
  with those and how to do those. But again, you want to be doing
• 48:55
  all of these 6 to 8 a year. So three to four in a six month
• 48:59
  period. I'm going to teach you exactly
• 49:00
  how to get started with that. And most people when they ask me
• 49:04
  what if they don't do ride alongs, it really is a trigger
• 49:07
  for me that they're not asking enough companies.
• 49:09
  You want to reach out to so many companies so that it doesn't
• 49:12
  matter if you get five Nos, you're gonna get one, yes, And
• 49:15
  that's gonna get you into doing a ride along.
• 49:18
  And you're gonna just keep asking when you can go back and
• 49:20
  ask them. So that's really not a problem
• 49:24
  because you're gonna be wanting to do base visits and community
• 49:26
  outreach events. I'm gonna teach you exactly how
• 49:28
  to do that. OK, next question.
• 49:31
  Do I commute far to get this experience?
• 49:34
  And I think there's two ways I want to answer this.
• 49:38
  Do you commute far to get ride along experience?
• 49:40
  Do you commute far to get a flight job?
• 49:43
  And this is one thing we're going to talk about inside the
• 49:45
  August Jumpsite course because this is what stops a lot of
• 49:48
  people from getting started is they're unsure how far they want
• 49:51
  to go. Radius is a big thing.
• 49:53
  So we help you get really clear on how far you want to go for
• 49:56
  these ride alongs, these connections, how far you want to
• 49:58
  go for a flight offer or for a flight company.
• 50:01
  So big thing is we're going to talk about radius and for
• 50:04
  everybody, the comfortability of that is very different.
• 50:06
  So we're going to get you clear on that decision and then kind
• 50:09
  of go from there. I hope that answers the question
• 50:12
  about do I need to commute? So you don't need to commute,
• 50:14
  you just need to decide how far you want to go.
• 50:16
  And I help you do that inside the Jumpstart Flight course.
• 50:19
  OK, nursing students, I work with a ton of nursing students.
• 50:22
  And it's because I say over and over and over again, nursing
• 50:26
  school is when I knew that I wanted flight.
• 50:28
  And so because of that, I've created an entire path just for
• 50:32
  nursing students on how to cut their timeline in half, what to
• 50:34
  focus on in nursing school, how to start taking action towards
• 50:38
  it's now. And you guys can start doing
• 50:40
  ride alongs now and base visits as nursing students, which is so
• 50:44
  cool. I didn't know you could do that.
• 50:46
  But doing that will help you give so get you so much more.
• 50:49
  It's an anchor and that this is what you want to do.
• 50:52
  It also just gets you clear on your path.
• 50:54
  You go to your critical care clinicals, you're an ICU and
• 50:58
  you're like on fire. You're like ready for it because
• 51:00
  you know that's where you want to be.
• 51:01
  You have clarity of what your path is.
• 51:03
  This helps cut my nursing school students who come to work with
• 51:07
  me in nursing school, their timeline in half because they
• 51:09
  have a mapped up plan. They're already taking action
• 51:11
  towards it. They're getting hired straight
• 51:13
  into critical care. And I always tell them do not
• 51:17
  stair step either. The common air most people take
• 51:20
  is they're like, well, just do Med search for one to two years,
• 51:22
  then move into critical care. That is harder to do.
• 51:25
  So you want to get hired in critical care right away.
• 51:28
  And I really talk about why and how to start doing that as a
• 51:32
  nursing student inside the school.
• 51:34
  So if you're a nursing student, join so we can get your, your
• 51:36
  plan mapped out and you can start cutting your timeline in
• 51:38
  half. OK, next question, how do you
• 51:41
  get prepared? What are the requirements and
• 51:44
  how to find a job as a flight nurse?
• 51:46
  OK, so I'm going to answer these individually.
• 51:48
  How to get prepared is to take this Jumpstart flight course.
• 51:50
  I'm going to teach you the first three things to get started.
• 51:53
  Your mindset, how to prepare for that, map out your plan no
• 51:56
  matter where you're starting so you're taking the right actions
• 51:58
  and you have a built out plan to see on track.
• 52:01
  And three, how to start getting in that helicopter seat now,
• 52:04
  doing right alongs making connections with flight
• 52:05
  companies, you getting to know them and they're getting to know
• 52:08
  you. The requirements are three years
• 52:11
  ER or ICU. You do not need both.
• 52:14
  You do not need pediatric, you do not need cardiac experience.
• 52:17
  You can have any specialty of ER or ICU.
• 52:20
  It can be a rural bed, Erisu or a level 1 and everything in
• 52:22
  between. So the requirements is just
• 52:24
  three years, ER, you to be able to apply and get hired.
• 52:29
  Now I want to say that with a caveat because if you're working
• 52:32
  with me inside my courses or inside my programs, I'm helping
• 52:36
  people get hired prior to the three-year mark.
• 52:38
  And the reason is they've had a mapped out plan.
• 52:41
  They've been taking the right steps.
• 52:43
  They've cut their timeline in half.
• 52:44
  They've been asked to interviews before positions have been
• 52:47
  opened and they've been hired before the three-year mark.
• 52:50
  So if you're inside my courses and programs, I'm actually
• 52:54
  telling you to start preparing for flight interviews at the 2
• 52:57
  1/2 year mark and start applying at the 2 1/2 year mark because
• 53:00
  that's around the time I'm helping you get hired before the
• 53:02
  three-year mark. So great question.
• 53:06
  How to find a job. I covered this, but I'm going to
• 53:08
  say it again. How to find a job is not relying
• 53:11
  on open availability or open applications online.
• 53:15
  Those positions are already spoken for and they're spoken
• 53:18
  for people who've been doing right along to making
• 53:20
  connections every time there is a posted online, most like 95
• 53:26
  percent of the time if there's a posted online position that
• 53:28
  positions already been spoken for.
• 53:30
  So you want to be asked to these interviews prior and that's by
• 53:33
  doing these right alongs and making connections.
• 53:35
  So that's how you get hired is following this three simple
• 53:38
  plan. Where do I begin after
• 53:40
  graduation? Great question You want to begin
• 53:43
  in critical care. What I recommend and if you come
• 53:45
  to work with me both inside my courses and in my program, I
• 53:48
  recommend you get an offer for critical care three to six
• 53:51
  months prior to getting graduating nursing school.
• 53:55
  I got an ITU critical care position signed an offer six
• 53:59
  months prior to graduating. This ensures you that you get a
• 54:02
  critical care position as a new grad.
• 54:04
  I really talk about student intern positions inside the
• 54:07
  Jumpstart Flight course and why they're so important and how to
• 54:10
  navigate getting one. While you're a student nurse.
• 54:12
  You want to go directly into critical care after graduation.
• 54:16
  You want to start confidently getting a mentor and coaching so
• 54:20
  that you can grow your confidence into this new role.
• 54:22
  Go from student nurse to critical care nurse, which is a
• 54:24
  whole different ball game. And then also start doing right
• 54:27
  alongs and have your plan mapped out.
• 54:29
  So that's where you want to begin.
• 54:30
  We're going to talk about that if you are a nursing student
• 54:33
  inside the August Jumpstart Flight course.
• 54:35
  OK, why three years experience prior to applying?
• 54:39
  Someone else asked. You want the three years
• 54:41
  experience because flight companies are really looking at
• 54:43
  you, growing your critical thinking skills.
• 54:46
  Critical thinking skills are big in flight because there is no
• 54:49
  way prior to getting into flight nursing or flight paramedicine
• 54:53
  that you've seen all the gamut of calls.
• 54:54
  There just isn't. I never had cardiac device
• 54:58
  experience. I never had pediatric
• 55:00
  experience. I never had a high risk maternal
• 55:03
  OB experience prior to flight. And like I said, I, I think the
• 55:07
  ICU that I worked at was either a Level 3 or a level 4.
• 55:10
  So I didn't see a ton of trauma experience, a ton of different
• 55:13
  patient diagnosis. But critical thinking is the
• 55:16
  thing that's going to help you always figure it out.
• 55:19
  So that's why three years of either ERICUR, critical care
• 55:23
  department or as a paramedic is so important because you grow
• 55:29
  your critical thinking skills, meaning whatever is thrown at
• 55:32
  you on any call or any mission that you run, you're going to be
• 55:35
  able to think it out, figure it out because you tap into your
• 55:38
  critical thinking skills. And that was one thing that I
• 55:41
  felt like I really bought, brought to the industry was my
• 55:45
  ability to work well under pressure and really see the
• 55:50
  bigger picture when a lot of things were going on.
• 55:53
  So that's why it does require the three years of experience
• 55:56
  prior to applying. But again, the caveat is you
• 55:58
  work with me in semi courses, in semi programs.
• 56:01
  I'm helping you get hired before the three years.
• 56:04
  OK, Next question. How many years do flight nurses
• 56:07
  stay on flight duty? I think the question for this is
• 56:10
  like, what's the typical lifespan of a flight nurse?
• 56:15
  And honestly, if they're doing it for seven years, I noticed
• 56:18
  that the typical lifespan for most nurses is 2 to three years.
• 56:21
  And I'm going to tell you why. The typical lifespan for flight
• 56:25
  nurses was two to three years because they burnt out.
• 56:28
  I watched dozens of people who I trained hustle and overwork
• 56:33
  getting into this flight position.
• 56:35
  And then when they got to flight, they hustled, overworked
• 56:37
  and they burnt themselves out. And so I'm really teaching you
• 56:41
  inside my program, how do you not burn out?
• 56:44
  How do you not hustle overwork? How do you get clear and take
• 56:46
  the right simple, doable actions that work with your life and cut
• 56:51
  out all the fluff? So that's why I think flight
• 56:55
  nurses half life is so short. But I did it for seven years and
• 56:59
  to be honest, I would have done it until I retired.
• 57:02
  The only reason why I retired is because I found life coaching
• 57:06
  tools and I really found that I wanted to help more people get
• 57:09
  into this industry, get to this goal, who wanted it and created
• 57:12
  this program. And that's the only reason why I
• 57:14
  left flight. It was the best job ever.
• 57:16
  And I still tell my friends, family and kids, I'm like, Oh my
• 57:18
  gosh, I miss it so much. I go on a run every single
• 57:22
  morning. And a lot of times they're
• 57:24
  flying over to the hospital and running a call where I run and
• 57:28
  I'm like, Oh my gosh, I miss, I miss the job and I miss the
• 57:31
  team. I miss the teamwork and the Q2
• 57:33
  patient so much. So you're able to have a
• 57:37
  longevity of flight nursing for flight paramedicine for however
• 57:40
  long you want, but you don't want to burn out ahead of time.
• 57:43
  So I'm going to show you how to do that, how not to burn out.
• 57:48
  Next question, what's the best experience you came ICURER
• 57:53
  another common question I already answered that doesn't
• 57:55
  matter if it's ICUERI always offer for you to choose the
• 57:59
  critical care department that you're most excited about.
• 58:03
  The one you're most excited about doing is the one where
• 58:05
  your critical thinking skills are going to grow so much.
• 58:07
  So choose the specialty PEDs, adult trauma, burn, whatever it
• 58:12
  is that you're most interested in and go that direction. 1 is
• 58:17
  not better than the other. Do ride alongs of flight crews
• 58:20
  help your chances? Yes, I already talked about
• 58:22
  that. Why ride alongs are so
• 58:23
  important? You get to know them, they get
• 58:25
  to know you. That's how you get invited to
• 58:27
  flight interviews ahead of time. Someone put when should I apply?
• 58:31
  You want to start applying at the 2 1/2 year mark.
• 58:33
  You're working with me inside my programs.
• 58:35
  I'm getting you hired before the three-year mark.
• 58:36
  So I really say start applying at the 2 1/2 year mark working
• 58:42
  as an RN, but I have medic experience.
• 58:44
  Oh, I wanted to address this because I do work with a lot of
• 58:48
  medics who are now going to nursing school.
• 58:51
  The the thing that I want to offer you for this is if you
• 58:54
  have been a medic for three plus years, we can get you in into
• 58:58
  flight companies as a flight medic while you're in nursing
• 59:02
  school. And there are some flight
• 59:03
  companies that will transition you automatically into a flight
• 59:07
  nurse role after graduation without having to do in hospital
• 59:10
  nurse experience. I'm going to say that again, if
• 59:14
  you are a medic who has three years, there are flight
• 59:17
  companies that will hire you as a flight medic and then after
• 59:22
  you graduate nursing school will transition you to a flight nurse
• 59:25
  position after graduation. There's some caveats to that.
• 59:29
  There's some companies where like you have to be doing it six
• 59:31
  months or years of flight medic before they're transition you.
• 59:34
  But I, I, I want to offer you that if you are a medic and
• 59:37
  you're going to nursing school, I've helped lots of medics get
• 59:40
  hired as a flight medic and then transition into a flight nurse
• 59:43
  position without having to do hospital.
• 59:45
  So if that's you, I'm going to talk about that inside of this
• 59:47
  course too. And you have plenty of time to
• 59:49
  ask me in the community group chat or on any of the calls how
• 59:52
  to navigate that. OK, next question, what is the
• 59:56
  process and what certs do I need?
• 59:58
  I talked about the three-step process, flight mindset, mapping
• 1:00:01
  out your plan earlier on as soon as you want it and doing ride
• 1:00:03
  alongs and making connections. And you do not need, again, any
• 1:00:06
  certification. You do not need your CEN, you do
• 1:00:09
  not need your CCRN, you do not need your CFRN 0 certification
• 1:00:12
  to get hired with most light companies in the United States.
• 1:00:17
  This was another one that someone asked me as a new grad
• 1:00:19
  nurse. So I'm just going to kind of
• 1:00:21
  address this like a little bit differently.
• 1:00:23
  As a new grad nurse, you want to be working critical care, you
• 1:00:25
  don't want to stair step again, you don't want to do Med surge
• 1:00:28
  and then go to critical care. You can get hired as a new grad
• 1:00:31
  nurse in critical Care now, right after graduation.
• 1:00:36
  And I'm going to really talk about the importance of that
• 1:00:37
  inside the course and how to start working towards that.
• 1:00:41
  And then also as a new grad nurse, you just want to have
• 1:00:43
  your plan mapped out. You want to transition
• 1:00:44
  confidently, of course, into your unit and you want to start
• 1:00:47
  doing ride alongs too as well. I help you kind of navigate
• 1:00:50
  doing that and what's the time period?
• 1:00:52
  Because sometimes it's really hard to navigate a new position
• 1:00:55
  while also learning how to do ride along.
• 1:00:57
  So I help you really how to map that plan out and start doing
• 1:01:00
  that. But as a new grand nurse, if you
• 1:01:02
  know you want flight, there's certain things you want to start
• 1:01:04
  working on as well. Someone put that they don't know
• 1:01:07
  where to start. And this particular person was
• 1:01:10
  in Texas. And I just want to let you know,
• 1:01:12
  I, I've, I've helped actually a lot of people in Texas get
• 1:01:15
  hired. I, I have a lot of clients who
• 1:01:17
  kind of work with me in Texas. There's a lot of flight
• 1:01:19
  companies this year in flight and one of the person, the one
• 1:01:23
  who just had the one year of ER experience with no search, she
• 1:01:25
  was from Texas as well. I helped her get hired into a
• 1:01:28
  rotor company and a rotor base. But if you don't know where to
• 1:01:31
  start, come join us instead. The August Jumpstart flight
• 1:01:33
  course. That's where we're going to get
• 1:01:35
  started. Someone else put their thinking
• 1:01:39
  about it. I've addressed this already, but
• 1:01:40
  I just want to reinforce, you don't have to feel 100%
• 1:01:44
  confident before getting started.
• 1:01:45
  Confidence is built after you get started, so you want to
• 1:01:49
  learn to take that fear that dealt with you and take action
• 1:01:52
  anyway. You will do this on every single
• 1:01:54
  call that you run. So you got to get off the fence
• 1:01:57
  and you got to start taking action and being committed to
• 1:02:00
  this. When you start to commit, you
• 1:02:02
  will gain momentum, your mental capacity will grow, and you will
• 1:02:06
  start having more confidence as you're deciding and as you're
• 1:02:10
  committing and as you're taking action.
• 1:02:12
  And I just want to offer you guys like, I like the version of
• 1:02:15
  me that commits and goes all in. Even if I fail, fail.
• 1:02:18
  It takes me more brain space and more power to be uncommitted, to
• 1:02:22
  be on the fence and to go back and forth in my mind over and
• 1:02:25
  over again. Commit, go all in, fail, get
• 1:02:27
  back up. Just be the person who goes,
• 1:02:30
  commits and goes all in. You again, don't have to be 100%
• 1:02:32
  confident, but decide that you want flight and go all in in it.
• 1:02:35
  When do you want to start? You want to start as soon as you
• 1:02:38
  know you want flight, even if it's in nursing school before
• 1:02:41
  nursing school. Map out your plan.
• 1:02:42
  Get started. We're going to cut your timeline
• 1:02:44
  in half. So if you're in someone put if
• 1:02:47
  you're in Med school, where do you start?
• 1:02:49
  You want to start now As soon as know you know you want it,
• 1:02:51
  that's when you want to get started.
• 1:02:53
  OK, that was all the questions that you guys emailed me in as
• 1:02:58
  you signed up for this course. I hope you guys are registered
• 1:03:00
  who are on right now. If you're on this live and you
• 1:03:04
  join the August Jumpstart flight course, you are getting the
• 1:03:07
  flight resume course for free as well.
• 1:03:08
  Just stand me and let me know that you joined or e-mail me
• 1:03:11
  back with your confirmation e-mail.
• 1:03:13
  I am now going to answer any questions that you guys have
• 1:03:19
  both on the Zoom and on the live.
• 1:03:21
  So let's start with people on Zoom.
• 1:03:27
  What do companies look for at a quick glance of resume if
• 1:03:30
  they're not focused on years, time and experience that digs
• 1:03:32
  deeper on the candidates, the person's value.
• 1:03:34
  It seems like HR does a quick glance and then you get an
• 1:03:37
  actual interview. You can share who you really
• 1:03:38
  are. OK, again, flight companies, you
• 1:03:40
  don't want to rely on getting an interview and any recruiters or
• 1:03:43
  anybody looking at it. You're going to get interviews
• 1:03:45
  through doing ride alongs and being invited to interviews
• 1:03:48
  prior to there being an opening. If you join this course, you are
• 1:03:51
  going to get an in depth workshop.
• 1:03:53
  It's an hour long with a mock resume on it that teaches you
• 1:03:57
  what to focus on your resume. And I'm just going to give you a
• 1:03:59
  quick rundown. Flight resumes, you're really
• 1:04:02
  focusing on leadership qualities and what kind of team player you
• 1:04:05
  are, who you are, what you value and the person that you are.
• 1:04:08
  I teach you in this flight resume course how to focus on
• 1:04:12
  leadership qualities. That is what they're looking for
• 1:04:14
  and exactly wording to be putting in there.
• 1:04:16
  So that's what you want to be focusing on.
• 1:04:18
  So thanks for asking that question.
• 1:04:20
  You join on this course, you're going to get that flight resume
• 1:04:23
  course for free to with the mock resume to kind of look at as
• 1:04:26
  you're going through it. What about companies that don't
• 1:04:30
  do ride alongs? I think I answered that you not
• 1:04:32
  only want to be doing ride alongs, but you want to be doing
• 1:04:34
  base visits. You can ask for base visits, You
• 1:04:35
  can ask for community outreach events.
• 1:04:37
  I'm going to teach you inside this course how not only to ask
• 1:04:40
  for ride alongs, but how to prepare for base visits,
• 1:04:43
  community outreach events. You can be doing just as many of
• 1:04:45
  those as ride alongs. And usually people are asking me
• 1:04:48
  this questions because they're not asking enough companies for
• 1:04:50
  ride alongs. So you want to be asking so many
• 1:04:52
  companies that this isn't even a thought that comes up for you
• 1:04:55
  because as many companies as you're asking, you're still
• 1:04:57
  getting right alongs with that with how many you're asking
• 1:05:00
  you're still getting and scheduling and doing them.
• 1:05:03
  Once you learn the process having to do that.
• 1:05:05
  Just like I said, I had someone who did the last jump start
• 1:05:07
  flight course who did 6 right alongs in one month and it was
• 1:05:12
  just cuz she didn't take no for an answer.
• 1:05:14
  And we navigated how to keep continuing out and asking for
• 1:05:17
  them and how to go about doing them.
• 1:05:19
  And I want you guys to know, just because you haven't heard
• 1:05:21
  anything doesn't mean it's a no. You sometimes you're going to
• 1:05:23
  have to ask 3/4. I had someone ask five times
• 1:05:26
  who's currently in my program and she just got a ride along.
• 1:05:29
  So you wanted to be willing to ask over and over and over
• 1:05:31
  again, even if the answer is no. But again, usually people are
• 1:05:34
  asking that question because they're not asking enough
• 1:05:36
  companies. And they're not only asking for
• 1:05:38
  ride, they're only asking for ride alongs.
• 1:05:39
  I'm going to teach you how to ask for other things too, so
• 1:05:42
  that you can get to know companies and they can get to
• 1:05:43
  know you. OK, I'm going to answer any
• 1:05:46
  questions right now that might be on the Instagram Live.
• 1:05:53
  How do you approach current flight nurses about doing raw
• 1:05:55
  logs? We're going to talk about that
• 1:05:57
  in the August Jumpstart flight course.
• 1:05:58
  Those are the first people you want to start with.
• 1:06:00
  The crews that come in, you want to directly ask them for a ride
• 1:06:04
  along and you have to be willing to feel uncomfortable.
• 1:06:06
  That's what we're going to talk about.
• 1:06:07
  You got to have willing to feel discomfort.
• 1:06:10
  I have this new thought that I've been really practicing this
• 1:06:13
  month is and I wrote it down on my here's some to read to.
• 1:06:16
  Successful people are willing to do what most people aren't.
• 1:06:20
  Successful people are willing to do what most people aren't.
• 1:06:24
  Also, people who get into flight are just willing to do what most
• 1:06:27
  people aren't. They're willing to be annoying.
• 1:06:29
  They're willing to feel discomfort.
• 1:06:30
  They're willing to go at it even though they have doubt and fear.
• 1:06:33
  They're willing to be uncomfortable to ask the hard
• 1:06:35
  question. They're willing to ask over and
• 1:06:37
  over again. They're willing to take no for
• 1:06:39
  an answer. And then the second thought that
• 1:06:41
  I have too is successful people are willing to feel what most
• 1:06:44
  people don't. And that again goes with willing
• 1:06:47
  to feel fear, willing to feel doubt, willing to feel
• 1:06:50
  discomfort and uncomfortable, willing to feel annoying.
• 1:06:53
  Successful people and people who get into flight are willing to
• 1:06:56
  feel those things. So it's getting out there
• 1:06:59
  directly asking. I teach you inside this course
• 1:07:01
  that asking direct flight nurses and flight crews is the number
• 1:07:05
  one place to start, especially if they're coming into your unit
• 1:07:07
  or you know someone. So I'm going to teach you
• 1:07:09
  exactly how to go about doing that in the August Jumpstart
• 1:07:12
  Flight course. Also, is a PHRN before applying
• 1:07:15
  to flight program required? No, it's not required.
• 1:07:18
  If your particular flight company requires it, they will
• 1:07:20
  pay for you to get it. Most companies do not need a
• 1:07:23
  PHRN or and if they do, they'll pay for you to have it.
• 1:07:26
  And again, if they really, really, really like you and you
• 1:07:30
  don't have a requirement that's in the application, that's OK.
• 1:07:34
  I've helped dozens of people get hired who don't have the
• 1:07:37
  requirement, but they loved them so much.
• 1:07:39
  They wanted them to be a team member so much that they just
• 1:07:44
  went ahead, offered them the position, and they paid for them
• 1:07:46
  to get their EMT or paid for them to get their PHRN if that
• 1:07:50
  was required. But again, most companies, the
• 1:07:52
  United States don't require any of those things.
• 1:07:56

• 1:08:00
