I have began listening to this podcast about a year, which was around the time I was graduating from my DNP-FNP program. This podcast is very informative and inspiring especially for me as a new DNP. If you are DNP or thinking about obtaining your DNP, this is definitely what you should listen to find out all the opportunities and options that out there.
