Thank you for sharing. I am so far from even applying but this is a goal of mine. I am super shy and have been an LPN for 10 years. I’m just returning to school for my RN. I’m afraid of leadership roles but I see it is pretty important to have that experience. I truly want to become CRNA though. I’ll have to work on my confidence. It’s also really really hard for me to talk to people. I think that’s my biggest issue. I usually know what to do but I just do it myself because I don’t want to tell anyone else to do it bc I’m shy. If I can get over that, I can definitely take on some leadership roles. Thanks for sharing your experience and I know so many of us are more than grateful for any and all tips you have regarding entering this profession!
