If you’ve been thinking about doing something different with your nursing career, this is where you start getting real answers.


The NNBA Conference is built for nurses who are ready to explore what’s actually possible beyond the traditional

path. Not just ideas, not just motivation, but real conversations, real strategies, and real examples from nurses who have already made the shift.


You’ll spend three days in Scottsdale, Arizona surrounded by other inspired leaders in nursing learning what it actually takes to build something of your own while you connect with people who are on the same path.


Early Bird pricing is still available right now, which means you can secure your spot at the lowest rate before it increases. If this has been on your radar, now’s the time to lock it in.

Put your brand in front of nurse entrepreneurs and healthcare leaders who are ready to invest in their future. Sponsorship, exhibitor, and advertising packages are available but act fast, because spots are limited!

A Note From Nena

Hi Nurses,


This month, I’ve been thinking a lot about momentum. And not the kind you wait for, but the kind you create! I’ve had so many conversations lately with nurses who are done sitting on ideas. But now, they’re asking better questions and making faster decisions. They’re not just curious anymore, they’re committed! That is the shift that can change your life.


And today, we get to see that in action. We’re so excited to be hosting our Nashville Workshop this week. It’s happening today and tomorrow, and I already know it’s going to be something special. There’s nothing like getting in a room with nurses who are ready to do the work, make decisions, and actually move forward.


That same energy is exactly what we’re bringing into NNBA 2026 Conference.

This is where things expand! Bigger ideas, deeper connections, and real strategy from nurses who have already built what you’re trying to build. Early Bird pricing is still available, so don't miss out on that deal.


If you’re still figuring out what your dream career could look like, this is exactly where it starts. Our conference is designed to help you identify real, service-based opportunities you can actually move on with clarity and confidence.


You don’t need more time. You need a decision. Let this be it.

With gratitude,

Nena
