This week on the Investing RN Podcast, we’re honored to feature Katie Newman, a former military nurse, investor, and entrepreneur who’s carving her path to financial independence while helping others do the same. From deployments in Afghanistan to becoming a copywriter and real estate investor, Katie shares her transformational story of navigating burnout, embracing side hustles, and building wealth beyond the bedside.

Katie’s inspiring journey includes leaving her civilian nursing role in 2022 to pursue investments, copywriting, and content creation full-time. She details how she bought her first rental properties (including a midterm rental and a long-term rental in Chattanooga), tackled financing as a self-employed entrepreneur, and leveraged networking and social media to accelerate her success.
