This week I’m joined by Attaliah Strubel, former NICU nurse and business coach. Attaliah and I discuss failing at things – specifically the time that she failed the NCLEX. We also discuss what led her to abruptly quit bedside nursing, meeting her German husband in Thailand, moving to Germany to start a life, and transitioning to making money online. We deep dive into having a money mindset, why nurses should stop posting on Instagram for free, and and why your biggest power as a creative is being able to say “no”.
This episode is for you if you’ve ever failed in life, if you’ve failed the NCLEX, if you’re considering quitting bedside nursing and want to make money online, how to start asking brands for money, and general anecdotes about life.

This week Kristine is behind the mic talking about her time as a nurse working in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Kristine is originally from Canada where she went to nursing school and briefly worked before moving to the US to become a travel nurse. In 2010 Kristine took what she thought was a one year nursing job, working for VIP clientelle in Riaydh, Saudi Arabia. That one year turned into seven years and before you know it Kristine had spent nearly a decade of her life living in the Kingdom.
Kylee and Kristine discuss the intricacies of being a westerner in Saudi Arabia, why it's so challenging to work there, but also how incredibly warm and welcoming the people of Saudi Arabia are. Kylee grills Kristine on her favorite and least favorite travel destinations, inspiring her to consider some countries she's never thought of visiting.
Kristine is incredibly candid and open talking about her travel experiences and her experiences working in Saudi Arabia. You can find Kristine on Instagram at @kristinewanders and on her blog Kristine Wanders.
