New to me, The 5-Minute NP?
Hello! I'm Kimberly, and I am a family nurse practitioner (FNP)! In my last year of FNP school, I was in the worse shape of my life mentally and physically! My joints ached all over, and I had severe back pain that made it difficult to get through my clinical rotations! I had three spinal injections that were of little help! I was stressed out, sleep deprived, depressed, and my body was full of inflammation! Once I completed school, passed my boards, I realized I had to try to get my health back! I changed to a plant-based diet, starting walking, completed a 100-mile, 10- day challenge, started sleeping, changed my mindset, and through it all, I found my purpose (other than being a mom to four beautiful children)! Everything I was learning about health, wellness, mindset, & longevity, I wanted to share with everyone else, so I started The 5-Minute NP. I realized  small, incremental health changes were actually life changing!

Welcome to The 5-Minute NP Podcast!
I am glad you are here!
