Ep233: 10 Things I’m Thankful For

Dr. Nicole C. Rankins
About this episode

It's Thanksgiving this week so I’m sharing 10 things I’m thankful for. I have so much gratitude and a big part of that is YOU. I know your time is valuable and I appreciate that you choose to spend it with me.

It’s such a privilege to serve people during one of the most meaningful events of their lives. Whether it’s at the bedside or sharing information on this podcast, I don't take it lightly that what I get to do is really special and I am incredibly, incredibly grateful to do this work.


In this Episode, You’ll Learn About:

  • How my openness has helped me grow over the course of my career
  • What makes me excellent at my job
  • How many different skills I’ve had the opportunity to learn and practice
  • Why I say that education is in my blood
  • Who has helped and taught me during the course of my career
  • Why on earth social media made the list of things I’m grateful for
  • Who works on the show behind the scenes
  • How my family inspires and energizes me
