Seven Days Into the New Year: Why I’m Not Rushing My Money in 2026

Seven days into the new year, many nurses already feel behind, especially when it comes to money.
In this first episode of the NurseMoneyDate® Podcast, April slows everything down and shares why she’s not rushing financial goals, clarity, or decisions in 2026, and how pressure quietly erodes financial trust.

In this grounded, honest conversation, you’ll hear about:

• The quiet pressure that shows up in January around money

• Why safety must come before strategy

• How financial clarity disappears when we rush

April also explores:

• What financial intuition actually looks like in real life

• Why January is better viewed as an orientation point, not a starting line

• How weekly Money Dates and seven-day decision-making create more trust, momentum, and sustainability than big annual goals

This episode introduces the core philosophy behind NurseMoneyDate®:
Building wealth slowly, honestly, and in a way that can actually hold real life: long shifts, emotional fatigue, changing seasons, and all.

If you’re a nurse who feels overwhelmed, behind, or unsure where to start this year, this conversation is for you.
