Welcome to our first BOLD discussion board! 

When we think of AONN's  BOLD Initiative  we think of enhancing your professional development. This can take place in many forms from publication, mentorship, certification, seeking a job promotion, enhancing  your education, etc. 

Tell us, what are you doing this year to BE BOLD?

I was there in-person at AONN + conference and learned a lot. New discussion boards are amazing. Was wondering if space can be crated for discussion for “ how we as navigator can fill our cup?” It would be learning experience , what other navigators practice to fill their cup and we all may can get inspired from it.

Hi Kinjal! i love this idea! You are so right that navigators pour so much into their patients, caregivers, and community. we have to make sure we take care of ourselves to better take care of our patients. I would love to hear some creative ways navigators are practicing self-care. Anything unique or special that helps you feel re-energized?

Connecting with my fellow colleagues as always been so important for me to reenergize! Talking with others who " get it". Early in my navigation career I connected with my local navigation network in Dallas and not only met new navigation peers but made new lasting friendships ( I treasure to this day)! Take a look at a network near you under our local navigation network tab.
