In this episode of NP In Progress, I sit down with Corinne Dunningham, emergency nurse practitioner and NP Masters coordinator, for one of my deepest and raw conversation since starting the podcast, we talk about the messy middle of becoming, and being a nurse practitioner.
We unpack the expert-to-novice transition, why endorsement is often “just admin”, what full scope practice really means, and why nurse practitioners need to stop justifying their existence and start building the evidence for what comes next. Corinne also breaks down clinical reasoning as the “how and why” behind decision-making, reframes feedback as advice, and speaks honestly about uncertainty, collaboration, nursing identity, and finding your confidence without pretending you have it all together.
This episode is for NP students, new NPs, educators, and anyone trying to practise safely in the grey while still backing themselves
