About

So who is Barbara C. Phillips anyway?

Several years ago, I saw a post online that suggested all one needed to do was write 50 descriptive words about oneself in order for others to learn a lot about you,  the individual. I found that exercise to be powerful and learned a great deal about my friends and colleagues that I had not previously known.

I thought this would be a great way for you to learn about me…before taking a look at some of the more formal introductory material such as a speaker sheet, a CV or an audio interview.

  • Support and Knowledge

    I have spent the morning printing off the downloads from your wonderful site. Bless you for bringing this site to us all...for putting all the effort into helping NP's carry out their vision, instead of just dreaming about it.
    Take care, and thank you so much again for creating a place of support and knowledge. I love the NP interviews and often jot down notes as I listen!

  • Opened 2 years ahead of plan…

    On March 17, 2009 I will open my door as a private practice psychiatric office. I am starting part time to see how it goes, but I have been doing some market analysis and it looks good.
    Thank you for your service to all NPs. I could not have done this without talking to you or using your website. Thank you, thank you...
    Kelley Edds, NP
