Can’t express how much you’ve inspired me in the past year as I was finishing nursing school. As a Latino, as a NY’er, as the son of a single mother, a lot of your story felt so real. I can’t thank you enough for the generous advice you have imparted onto me, but to nurses around the world.
The number of comments we get from people like you, who share similar stories, is blowing our minds and really brings us joy in knowing that we aren't making these TH-cam videos for nothing.
Monica and Jason this was great, and I'm so inspired by your journey. As a single Black woman, who's a former travel nurse (RN for 14 years) from the South, who recently relocated to CA for better nursing opportunity and ended up landing a job as a Clinical Nurse Coordinator via Incredible Health from the advice you've given on this channel. I just want to say thank you! This channel has helped to develop my career mindset and to develop strategies in scaling my life. May your channel become uber successful in 2024 and beyond!
Wow, I looove stories like this. Incredible Health has not sponsored anymore of our videos but I still tell our viewers to make a profile on their website so they can land a job faster. I've heard from so many nurses that they got their jobs through Incredible Health and I'm so happy for you. Congratulations!
This channel is so full of value. As long as you're a nurse, you will need this channel forever.
Thanks for the kind words 🙏
I am an LPN and pursuing my RN at a community college while working full time. It has been a struggle sometimes, and I wanted to give up at times. I started taking nursing prerequisites in 2015 while working full-time, then my marriage fell apart, had to put schooling on hold then I got a divorced, moved out of California to Vegas, then Covid hit, and so on and so forth. Now that I'm back in school, I am determined to finish what I started, but sometimes, it's not that easy. I saw your inspiring story, which made me see the light at the end of a tunnel. Thank you for sharing.
Keep pushing! You will be proud of yourself for not giving up. You can do it!
This channel is so important for nurses. Never stop inspiring, educating, and coaching us to aspire for so much more.
Thank you so much 🙏
I knew that you had climbed out of debt and were successful, but it is something else to see what humble beginnings you had, and to know how truly hard you grinded to get to where you are today. Very inspirational!
Thank you so much, we really appreciate your comment. I know we're not special though because there are millions of people in this country and even more throughout the globe who had to work a lot harder than us to reach what their definition of success is.
I'm moving to California from Canada for this specific reason. Safe nurse to patient ratios, and mandated breaks mean absolutely everything. Im not going to kaiser, but I will be keeping an eye on it for my future nursing opportunities.
Thank you for sharing such an inspiring story May GOD continue to bless you and Monica.
Thank you so much!
My respect! 🫡 Dominican in the house. I’ve always watched your videos, but never knew you were Dominican! Glad to know more and more of us are in the healthcare field!
Thank you so much! We definitely do need more Dominicans in healthcare.
@@NursesToRiches yes, we do! Keep shining, both of you! Blessings.
As a nurse myself from very humble beginnings, you and your wife are very inspiring!!! May God bless you two beyond limits!!!
Thank you, truly. That means a lot.
Keloke! Dominican here as well graduating in April with my BSN. Proud of you brother!
Jaja, keloke! Make us Dominicans proud and get your BSN-you're almost there! Your life and your family's life will be so much better once you start making that RN salary-I promise you.
Platano 🍌 Power 🇩🇴 😅
This is so inspirational and motivational video. I am currently CNA in Sutter Roseville and got accepted in Kaiser Morse Sacramento as a CNA. I will work in 2 hospital for now and to support my family and continue my nursing goal! Thank you so much!
I am finishing my last semester in nursing school on the East Coast and can't wait to return home to CA to work. I miss it so much, and doing my clinicals in poorly staffed Maryland and D.C hospitals has been so eye-opening (in a bad way), after having worked in California hospitals for many years. Your channel inspires me and keeps me going every day. Thank you both for sharing your story and advice. Life changing content. I am thrilled to be watching you guys reap the benefits of all your hard work!
Thank you for your comment. We know how awful the working conditions are outside of California and do not envy nurses who work in other states. You will be so much better off when you return to California.
I don’t know why I was crying maybe it was the music. I Loved this💚
Aww, thank you! You're like the 10th person to either comment or message us to tell us they cried because of this video. Thank you!
What a story! I pray for you guys to always stick together, no matter what life will throw at you.
You both are truly inspirational
Thank you so much but we're just glad our videos have helped so many nurses improve their financial situation.
You guys are so generous in spreading positivity and inspiration to everyone not just nurses. Stay blessed and healthy. 🙏
Thank you ❤️
Thanks for sharing because people see where you are now but they don't know the process.
Thank you. A lot of people who haven't followed us on TH-cam assume that we are full of ourselves, love to brag, and never had to work to get to where we are-this could not be any further from the truth, which is why we had to tell our story.
Been following you for quite some time. I decided to move to Sacramento soon and just waiting for my California license. Filipino nurse watching from West Virginia.
New York City "patients can spend hours if not days in the emergency department before being admitted" and you alone had 30 patients at the same time. New York City hospitals sound worse than hospitals in the Philippines. When I went to a provincial ER in the Philippines, we had several nurses taking care of us. Our American insurance does not work there so we were surprised our total bill was only $200 cheap. Uwi na po ako.
Amazing story. You have a good heart and you deserved to be blessed. Thanks for loving for my kababayan❤
Am shot of words about how precious you two are to my life's journey
Thank you ❤️
Im in nursing school right now. I feel a light at the end of the tunnel when I see your videos. Also im Dominican too. You are definitely a role model that I want to be like. Thanks for sharing your life experience. I watch all of your video and hopefully you will interview me someday. Thanks again.
Keep going! Nursing school was one of the hardest challenges we faced but you just have to keep pushing through. Let us know when you finish so we can interview you!
You two have added a lot of inspiration and value to people’s lives in the time where we needed it most. Education and information is a great way to empower people into making the best decisions for themselves, and as a current CNA and future nurse, only living an hour from Sac (Chico) Yoir channel has provided me with tons of knowledge in hour to succeed as a nurse and keep my finances in order for a better future myself. Much appreciated!
Thank you! Keep that mindset when you start making that California-nurse money and you will be much better off than all of your colleagues.
All it took for me to subscribe was for you to say you are from DR. 😂😂.
Compatriota y colega. Nítido. I was born and raised in DR. I am a psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner in the state of Alabama. Your Chanel is inspiring. I hope I can be your guest one day.
I had to come back and finish watching this video. This video shows how hard work and perseverance can open the doors for someone. Absolutely wonderful! ❤
Thank you ,Christine!
Man this edit is done so good you prob gone make some nurses cry! 🥲 Keep on inspiring Jason and Monica!
Lol, you're funny but thanks so much! This video was a lot of work for us... We spent so much time on it because we really wanted to tell our life story through the video. So, if that's how it came across, then I guess we did our job.
You guys are so inspiring I have been watching your channel consistently for about 6 months and I am a healthcare assistant in the UK and you guys inspired me to go to nursing school and apply for a job in America and be able to live my dreams soon ☺️☺️☺️
You guys have no idea what you do to people sharing this without any gatekeeping at all. I am able to have hope for a better future and dream again 🥰🥰🥰
Thank you so much for everything you do I hope your content gets more recognition and your channel explodes in popularity so you and your family can have a great life without needing to practise nursing because all you guys have done is good for all the nurses around the world.
God Bless you 🙏🙏🙏
When you get to the US let us know. We want to hear your story, too!
@@NursesToRiches Thank you so much you guys are always so supportive and kind to us 💞💞💞
It’s popular, but comments help the algorithm. 😄
@@lisar.2549 I know they are a big channel in this niche but I feel like they should have more views and subs look at the quality of the videos 😍😍😍 And I know they have a bigger audience than this just think about all the nurses in the US, and abroad that want to be in the US or people in nursing school, CNAs etc. This channel is very informative and the content is very "easy to watch" and really appealing. I am a Healthcare assistant in the UK and I don't even know how I found it but I felt so blessed ever since this information changed my life 🙏😭🥳🥳🥳
This is really cool cinematography. I like the old clips and pictures you guys kept.
Thank you 🙏! Monica always wants to record our random moments and I've never been a fan of it until I realized we needed those videos to tell our story.
Beautiful story 🩷
Such a wonderful rags to riches story! Continued blessings to you and your beautiful family! 🙏🥰
Thank you ❤️❤️🙏
Wow kudos fot the effort. The editing and story telling was so good I got lost in it.
This makes me highly emotional. Your story is incredibly inspiring and also a demonstration of the benefits and pitfalls of life in the United States. 😢
Proud of you Jason been sub to you guys (on my other account) since high school I’m now in nursing school and I’m half way done. Your story is amazing bro I’m inspiring young people like my self 🔥
Wow, you made it! You're in nursing school and soon enough you're gonna be in a better place financially than most other Americans while also making such a huge contribution to society. Keep going and don't give up! Nursing school will be extremely hard but you can do it!
man, im envious lmao. You 2 are doing awesome!
Don't be envious. I know it's a cheesy saying but you can really accomplish anything that you put your mind to. Don't let anyone deter you from the dreams you want to achieve.
Love this content and your story. Kudos to you both for the perseverance. 🙏
I just want to say thank you for your videos and all the knowledge and inspiration you share, I really appreciate it.
This was such an inspiring video! Congrats to the two of u on all your hard work! Wishing u and your family all the very best! :)
This channel is underrated! Keep doing what you, you inspire many.
Thank you so much for sharing your story, i find it inspiring.❤
I’m a nurse in Utah and though I never worked in nyc I worked in the Cleveland clinic for a few years and it was downright dangerous the patient ratios. I will never work anywhere but California or Utah personally.
Omg Jason you make me want to cry. I am so very proud of you both.
Thank you 🙏. I didn't realize this video would touch so many people.
Congratulations to you both!
Like the way u have the story, I’m a single mom who just retired in my 40s and it’s an amazing such amazing life the struggle s is to make you push through never give up please let everyone know Keep going Never Give up keep GOD first !
Thank you! 🙏❤️
Wonderful Jaison ,so inspiring
This channel is so valuable. What a beautiful video.
Hi, it's Joe. You guys are the best! I mean it! Like every time I watch all your videos, I've always learned something coz it's very informative and inspiring. I like how you guys told us your story through this medium and it is something I would keep on thinking whenever I feel down or depressed. I am on my first step of becoming a nurse as I just received a copy of letter of acceptance for the healthcare assistant program from a private college here in Vancouver Island (I'm from Canada but I'm a Filipino like Monica) and I'm planning to bridge this program into nursing in the future. I had an accountancy degree and been working in the accounting field for almost a decade now and I am ready to a new adventure. Again, thank you so much for sharing your story, and kudos to you both!!!
This channel keeps getting better and better. Im looking for flights now just to expedite the process
Thanks so much! I love and I hate making videos like this. I love being able to show you all our life through our eyes and through these edits but the more praise these videos get, the harder it means I have to work on future videos to keep the same level of feedback.
@@NursesToRiches respectfully in the last 2 videos alone, from vulnerability of you and Monica to the production quality...dude you have been going absolutely NUTS with these vids. I remember finding this channel my first semester of nursing school amd now I have 8 months of ER experience. And im STILLLLLLL tuned in! Being a voice that inspires a generation to change how they live is gonna be filled with a lot of hardships but everytime you share your story or another person's it tells me, "yeah I can do this too!" Yall weren't the only ones struggling I was homeless for 2 years and had a...side biz(🌲🌲) for 5 years JUST to pay for my car, pre-reqs, and books to get into nursing school. All of this to day I hope the channel becomes the biggest thing out there, and even if not you still inspire me everyday as minority myself to not take anything lying down and NEVER stop reaching!
thank you for the video. It is so inspiring❤
Many nurses come from humble beginnings. Awesome story! Congratulations. Waiting for More🎉😊
Yes! Thank you!
Im getting ready to get an ABSN, you've inspired me! appreciate the content brother
This is life changing!
Wow, thanks for this comment!
You guys are so inspiring!! 🫶🏽
Epic video🙌🏼 Thank you for putting it all together.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!
Hard work and determination are the keys to getting out of poverty... thanks to America, that dream came true.
It's so crazy to think that we were both in Sacramento/Roseville at one point of our lives together, I might have seen you and Monica when I lived there from 2013-2017. I am so happy to see you two grow and can't wait for the big things to happen in your lives! You are so inspiring & I am so happy to have come across your channel and connect with you. Here's to being wealthy & rich!
Thanks, Ellaine! Sacramento is a small city and we're constantly running into people we know or people who know us from the videos. So, I wouldn't be surprised if we ran into each other around that time. But you're doing bigger and better things now and I can see you retiring soon enough 😋
Thanks for this. Your story gives my wife and I (whom are both nurses) hope. Excellent vid.
That is awesome you guys should be killing it! Thanks for watching!
Wow, since I started watching you - each video is more and more impressive with lots and lots of information.
Thank you! I hope we can continue to improve the quality of every new video.
Congratulations Jason and Monica. Been watching you guys for a long time now. I've been a long time resident of Sacramento now and I will be finishing my BSN by the end of this year. Thanks for giving all the endless information about RN payrates in California. Looking forward to your guys next big step. Maybe we will get a New York vlog series when you guys move back? lol
Thanks for being a long-time supporter! We'll definitely document our move back to NYC and our life there when we move.
Great job making this story! Very cool!
Thank you so much!
Thanks for this inspiring story , thank you for sharing this with us
And thank you for watching the video and leaving a comment. It really helps the video spread to more people.

Thank you for watching and supporting us!
This is so inspiring. Congratulations to you both
Thank you so much!
Amazing video 🎉 congrats on all your success
Such a beautiful and inspiring story!
Thank you 🙏
Watching this video made me teary-eyed. I have watched almost every TH-cam video you guys have and this is by far the best one yet. As a new grad RN here in the Philippines who grew up in poverty, I also hope to fulfill my USRN dreams real soon so that I can provide myself and my family with a better life. Looking forward to meeting you guys in person! God Bless.
You are so kind, thank you! California and NY have the highest number of Filipinos. You'll fit right in in any of those states.
Yes I am currently applying for NY. Hoping I could save up enough money so that I could take the NCLEX and fly going there by next year @@NursesToRiches 🥰
This was such an inspiring story. Awesome work.
Thank you. That means a lot to us!
Congrats on all your success as well as your wife; very inspiring ❤❤❤❤❤

Such an inspiring journey!
Thank you!
You are smart!❤ follow your passion to your relationship!
Wow your journey was and still is remarkable. I am pursuing nursing as a second career at 49! God bless and hope to see you on the hospital floor....
If you ever see me, let me know! I wish you the best and don't you ever give up!
Y’all both are inspirational. I hope to meet with you soon.
Maybe in the future if we ever do a meet up.
One day your kids will watch this amazing video and they will be even more proud of their parents.
Wow, thank you for saying that. 🙏
Thank you for sharing this inspiring story to show how nursing as a career can change someone's life.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Excellent story of resilience!!
Thank you!
You guys live so close to us!
Where do you guys live?
This. This. And this. Thank you ❤
Thank you❤️🙏
I'm a new BSN grad with an RN compact license. I'm definitely going to get the California license after achieving the needed nursing experiencing.
This video was so inspirational. Thank You
Good choice! And thanks for the comment!
You welcome@@NursesToRiches
this is a very touching story☺️
Thank you so much! 🙏
I always wanted to be a Nurse since the age of 5. When I graduated high school back in 93 My mom said she would not sign her name for Student loan or anything for me to be a Nurse because NURSES don’t make $$. Mind you I just wanted to be a Nurse. So she said I needed to work my way up to a Nurse CNA, LPN then Nurse. Which I thought was stupid cause I hate school😂. So I’m like let me just go to school and do it. Mind You I wasn’t an A student at all C average at best. Any who ended up having a child 10 months later having twins. So I went and got my CNA and long story short 😂😂 20yrs later I still have my CNA license . Life hit me and I was married and raising 6 children. Divorced got remarried and still have 6 children and now two twin Grandbabies. Although I’ll be 50 in a few years that passion of Nursing never left me…. But the thought of going to school got me like 😢😢😢😮😮 . I would want to atleast become an LPN but I don’t know it’s so expensive and I’m not taking out a loan. I did see where I can go to another state for 18gs but….. idk
It's never too late! I went to school with 50-year-olds. If you've always dreamed of becoming a nurse, do it-by any means necessary.
Oooh, wow, thank you for sharing your story this motivates me to keep going. Tonight was my second night of going solo after orientation as a new grad nurse OMG I am 😢 I think I need to go somewhere nurses are compensated fairly for their hardwork. Congrats 👏🏼 Jason and Monic I hope one day I can be accomplished like you guys. How much experience did you need to have to land those jobs at Kaiser?
Thank you! Monica and I are actually going tk talk about how long it took her to get a job when we moved here. It was not easy that's for sure. We applied for hundreds of jobs for her (probably 300+). She had 5 interviews and got 3 job offers. Took 3 months for her and she had 3 years of experience. But everyone's experience will be different. I got a job at Sutter in less than 2 weeks. And two other job offers at dignity within 1 week. I was workiñ at Sutter for 8 months while I applied to Kaiser and didn't get a job offer from them until the 8th month. I had 4 years of experience when they hired me. But I have coworkers that were hired as new grads. So it all varies.
Your testimony is truly a blessing🙌🙏🏾 May GOD bless you both and your family!
He has truly placed the favor of GOD over your lives to be an inspiration to others🙌🙏🏾
Super smart video!
Thank you!
I’m proud of you 🙏🏾
Thank you ✊🏼
You guys are great
Thank you ✊
Filipinas are on God-mode, I'm sold. I keep seeing hard wins when a Filipina is in the picture
❤❤❤❤❤❤
I like you and Monica so so much
You make me tears
Aww, thank you! We appreciate all of you from the bottom of our hearts! ❤️
Oooh 😯 Maashallah I’m a nurse too living in Norway
Love this 🎉❤
Thank you 🙏
Hi My name is Christiane i just found your tonite while working. This is really what i was looking about . Im working in Atlanta for 14 years now as an RN and last year i wanted to moved away from here . I went ahead and i apply for my Ca license and i have it now for over a year. I dont mind moving to Ca but want to secured a job first . I ask several people about it but nobody is really helping. I was told that kaiser dont hired outside its system. Can you please share more light on that? I also want to congratulate you on what you are doing . My goal is to move to Ca as soon i get a job .
