AFCN Graduate Jamilla Mansoor

AFCN Graduate Jamilla Mansoor knows firsthand what it feels like to seek something more from a nursing career. After working as a Licensed Practical Nurse in an orthopedic hospital unit while balancing casual paramedic work, she found herself facing a challenge familiar to many healthcare professionals—burnout, limited flexibility, and a desire for better work-life balance.

Today, Jamilla is the owner of Soleful Harmony, an award-winning mobile foot care business serving Calgary and surrounding communities. In just one year, she has built a thriving practice, hired an additional foot care nurse, and created a career that provides both professional fulfillment and personal freedom.

Her journey is an inspiring example of how advanced foot care nursing can create new opportunities for nurses willing to invest in themselves and take a leap of faith.

For AFCN Graduate Jamilla Mansoor, advanced foot care nursing created an opportunity to combine clinical expertise with entrepreneurship while designing a career that better supported her personal and professional goals. Her success story demonstrates how nurses can build rewarding businesses while continuing to make a meaningful impact in their communities.

Seeking a Different Future in Nursing

Before entering advanced foot care nursing, Jamilla worked in an orthopedic hospital unit while also maintaining casual paramedic shifts.

Although she enjoyed caring for patients, the demands of traditional healthcare schedules were taking their toll.

Like many nurses, she wanted greater flexibility, more family time, and a career path that offered long-term sustainability.

Rather than remaining in a situation that no longer aligned with her goals, Jamilla made a bold decision.

“I took a bet on myself and a leap of faith.”

That decision would become the catalyst for a remarkable professional transformation.

Discovering AFCN and Advanced Foot Care Nursing

While researching alternative nursing opportunities, Jamilla discovered advanced foot care nursing and quickly saw its potential.

She was drawn to the flexibility of the profession, the opportunity to operate independently, and the ability to continue making a meaningful difference in patients’ lives.

When she enrolled with AFCN, she found more than just education.

“I really enjoyed how all the courses are structured, easy to understand, and the support offered even after taking any course.”

She also appreciated the welcoming environment within the AFCN community.

“No judgement from others, support offered.”

The combination of education, mentorship, and community support helped give her the confidence to move forward with her vision.
