#4 - Meet the Nurse Who Created a Community of Over 20K Nursepreneurs: Alvionna Brewster

The Charyse Williams Show

In this episode, I talk to Alvionna Brewster who started out as a country girl from East Texas with a knack for crafting, but she never imagined it would lead her to revolutionize healthcare worldwide. Now, as the founder of a premier organization for black nurses, she's changing lives and inspiring others to use their specialized skill sets to become nurse entrepreneurs. But as her business picks up steam, she realizes that protecting her intellectual property is crucial. Will she be able to protect her baby at all costs, or will her hard work be snatched away? Tune in to find out!
Alvionna is a passionate registered nurse since 2005 who has dedicated her career to cardiovascular care, health maintenance, and preventative medicine. With a Master's degree in nursing education, Alvionna has become an international speaker, author, educator, and consultant. As the founder and CEO of Black Nurse Entrepreneurs, she has created an empowering community for over 20,000 nurses, providing them with opportunities to network, learn, and grow their businesses. Alvionna also owns Abundant Seeds Health Solutions, a consulting firm that offers health and wellness resources to individuals and companies. Her love for mentorship and motivation comes from her desire to help others live their best lives and achieve their dreams.
