I'm just starting out on the journey to become an RN

I am 31 years old, happily married and finally going back to school in the fall. This summer I did some soul searching and realized that I do want to have a career and feel self sufficient despite having my husband's income to rely upon. I have also come to realize that I want to work in a field that is truly meaningful to me. I have a lot to give to other people, I have always been instinctively empathetic. I stayed away from nursing for a long time because of my all out phobia of math and therefore science. But now that I'm in my 30's I've come to the conclusion that the fear paralyzed me before I ever gave myself the chance to succeed. So here I am the self proclaimed "math dyslexic" going back to school in the fall and taking algebra and chemistry only to prepare myself for Anatomy and Physiology, Inorganic Chemistry, and Microbiology. Whoo hoo. Here I go!
