A quick pep talk for when you are questioning everything. I feel like I have at least a day or two every single month where I question every decision I've ever made, and this is the pep talk I wish I had to lift me out of it. Use this whenever you need it, and send it to a nurse who could use some love too. ❤️ New podcast Healing Healthcare should be dropping on Spotify this week, and Apple podcasts soon after! I will announce it as soon as it's live! ----------------- Have you heard the news?! On Instagram, we are starting a fresh page @healthcoachfornurses-> Go FOLLOW & Check out ..read more

I have been known to go on a nice little doom scroll from time to time, and I often find myself deep into the comment sections on posts made by nurses, infuriated by the audacity of others. ? I just get so fired up, and I can be pretty defensive when it comes to my fellow nurses. Today I am digging into a few headlines and comment sections in the nursing world, just to spark some meaningful conversations. Here's a preview of what we are looking at today: "Police arrest former Medford nurse accused of diverting drugs, injecting patients with tap water" Comment - "Night shift don't do sh*t ex ..read more

The hours after a long shifts are some of the most important when it comes to our sanity as nurses. And yet, we often spend the moments after work binge eating, numbing out on the couch, doom scrolling, or just generally "rotting." And while relaxation is important, these choices usually leave us more drained than restored. On today's episode, let's talk about a few key things to include post-shift to ACTUALLY decompress. This one is short and sweet, but I also give you a quick update on our new podcast kicking off so soon! Don't worry, it will be a smooth transition from this show to our nex ..read more

Today I am sharing an amazing conversation I had with registered dietitian Katy Harvey! Katy is a non-diet dietitian who teaches women how to ditch dieting and trust themselves with food by learning to listen to their bodies again. She's passionate about intuitive eating, weight neutrality and finding effective ways of taking care of our health without being on and off diets and "healthy eating" plans for the rest of our lives. We dig into all of this and more in our conversation today, and as an incredibly busy nurse with zero time for weighing, measuring, or following a bunch of food rules ..read more

Today is a BIGGIE - because I am bringing on one of my favorite humans, RN and now AUTHOR Ashley Chancellor! Ashley and I first met when we started working together to help her heal through burnout, and a beautiful friendship formed.

It sounds simple, but the clothes we wear on our weight loss journey can make a huge difference. Too often, our tendency is to hide our body in baggy clothes, dark colors, and clothes that just don't fit "until we lose the weight." This sets us up for failure, and impedes any progress we might make. It's the classic "I'll be happy when..." idea, and it doesn't work. Dressing in clothing that fits your body, gives you shape, and aligns with your individual style can make an enormous impact. It's time we honor your incredible body, and stop trying to hide out of fear of "unworthiness." We explo ..read more
