"Carmen is an incredibly
knowledgeable resource and I’m so grateful to have found her! She’s given me invaluable information to help start my own practice that I would not have found elsewhere or would have taken me years to figure out on my own. It’s reassuring to know that I have such a highly experienced NP on my side as I go out on my own."
"I am a CNM, and I re-entered into practice after seven years of being home with my kids. I opened a solo practice and set out to find my people. Carmen and her group at The Advanced Practice was the place I needed. I was met with clinical guidance and support, business guidance, including how to forge a brand, and how to stake authority in our field. Carmen is always available, never makes me feel like my questions are foolish, and is an expert in the field of HRT and holistic women’s healthcare."

"The value of the information that I obtained while in The Academy goes far beyond my initial investment into the program. I will continue to implement the knowledge gained and I'm excited about what my future holds!"
- DASHAUNA FRANKLIN, AGNP THE AESTHETICS & WELLNESS LAB
"I would highly recommend The Academy as an investment into your practice and your journey as an entrepreneur. Carmen presented methods to continue growth within our practice but also opportunities outside of one to one patient care. I never considered that I could generate revenue as a nurse practitioner outside of directly treating patients."
"For anyone considering working with a business coach to elevate their private practice, I can't emphasize enough the value of mentorship in gaining clarity and direction."
- SARA BENNETT, FNP
ORIGINS FERTILITY
