DANIELLE MAYNARD - THE NURSE TO BUSINESS BOSS
Burnout to Funded Impact — A Nurse-Focused Programme to Launch a Purpose-Driven CIC Without Risking Your Wellbeing, Income, or Identity
Inside The Nurse to CIC Programme, you’ll follow my More Than A Nurse (CARE) framework — the exact step-by-step structure that has helped clients secure £30k+ in funding, register sustainable CICs, and rebuild their confidence without reckless leaps or rushed resignations.

You worked hard to become a nurse.
You care deeply.
But somewhere along the way, the job stopped loving you back.
You might recognise this 👇🏾
You’re contracted for 35 hours but working 60+ — unpaid and unnoticed
You cry most days, but still show up and give everything
You feel like you’re grieving the nurse you used to be
The toxicity is overwhelming, yet leaving feels impossible
You feel trapped by the “golden handcuffs” — pension, sick pay, stability
You’ve allowed nursing to become your entire identity
You want impact — but not nights that are slowly draining you
You’re 8-20 years in and thinking, What else could I even do?
You love patient care… but hate how little you’re valued
You don’t want a boring Monday–Friday office job
You’re exhausted, underpaid, and quietly questioning everything
It can feel like being in a toxic relationship.
You want to leave.
But you stay — because it’s all you’ve ever known.
And beneath it all?
A fear that maybe you’re “just a nurse.”
You’re not.
Absolute clarity on your transferable skills, values, and real-world options beyond the ward
A safe, structured way to explore your next chapter — without reckless decisions
A purpose-driven project or CIC that creates meaningful community impact
Funding secured so your work is sustainable — not another unpaid passion project
Confidence in your leadership, innovation, and professional worth
A future that protects your income, pension decisions, and well-being
Recognition that your experience translates far beyond bedside care
You don’t want to abandon care.
You want to expand it.

The Nurse to CIC Programme is a nurse-focused, step-by-step mentoring and implementation program that guides you from confusion and burnout to a fully registered, funding-ready Community Interest Company (CIC) — or aligned impact pathway — without risking your wellbeing, income, or identity.

The results aren’t accidental.
They’re structured.
For:
• 3 personalised 1:1 strategy sessions
• Full CIC registration handled properly
• Policies and governance documents completed
• 3 grant applications supported
• Funding toolkit and accountancy guidance
• 4 months of direct support access
• 4 months of private community access
So that by the end of the process, you have:
• A legally registered CIC
• Funding applications submitted
• A clear plan for income and impact
• A safer, more confident next step
Instead of another year of uncertainty.
Of course you are.
You’ve built a career. You’ve built expertise.
We don’t rip that away.
We translate it.
• Your crisis management becomes project leadership
• Your safeguarding experience strengthens your funding bids
• Your communication skills position you as a credible founder
So that you stop seeing yourself as “just a nurse” and start seeing the commercial and social value of your experience.
20 years in means:
• You understand systems
• You understand people
• You understand pressure
That experience strengthens grant applications.
So that your length of service becomes evidence of credibility — not something that keeps you stuck.
You’re working long shifts. You’re exhausted.
The last thing you need is something that feels like another full-time job.
The Nurse to CIC Programme is designed around shift workers.
•Calls are arranged around your rota
•You’ll get clear weekly focus points, not endless modules
• You’ll know exactly what to work on next, so you’re not spending hours researching
So that you can make progress in 60–90 focused minutes a week instead of doom-scrolling job sites at 11 pm, wondering what else you could do.
Burnout rarely improves by waiting.
Six months from now, you could either:
• Be in the same rota cycle
• Or have a registered CIC and funding decisions pending
So that instead of saying “I wish I’d started sooner,” you’re saying “I’m glad I did.”
You don’t have to resign.
You don’t have to reduce hours.
You don’t have to gamble your security.
We build this alongside your current role.
• You explore your options before making decisions
• You run funding applications while still employed
• You test your idea safely
So that when you choose to reduce hours or step away — if you ever do — it’s because you want to, not because you feel trapped or desperate.
Most courses give you information.
Inside Nurse To CIC Programme:
• Your CIC is actually registered
• Your legal documents are actually completed
• Your funding applications are actually submitted
• Your project plan is written
• Your policies are drafted
• Your social media foundations are set up
So that you leave with real assets, real paperwork, and real applications in progress — not just notes in a notebook.
You receive 6 months of direct support, Telegram access, and private group access — so that you’re not left alone after one call and wondering what to do next.
Calls are arranged around your rota, including evenings where needed — so that shift work doesn’t become the reason you stay stuck.
No. We first assess whether a CIC is the right fit — so that you don’t set up a structure you don’t actually need.
That’s the starting point.
We map your skills, values and lived experience first — so that your project is aligned and fundable, not rushed.
That’s common.
We build funding and project stability first — so that any decision to reduce hours is informed, measured, and financially supported.
You will still leave with:
• A mapped skill profile
• Explored pathways
• A draft or completed project plan
• Clear funding knowledge
So that even if you don’t move immediately, you’re no longer in confusion.
This isn’t about pushing you out of nursing.
It’s about giving you options — and backing those options with funding, structure, and support.
So that your next chapter feels chosen, not forced.
Yes! 100% my framework and programme will work for non-nurses too. I love to work with all impact driven indivudals.
