The long and short - I'm ready to come back to the microphone after depression pulled my feet out from under me, but I can promise that it will not be the same as it was. So over the next few episodes, I just want to be honest about where I've been, how I got here, and what has changed. I split this into 3 episodes just so it felt a little less overwhelming and a little more digestible. There won't be much in the way of rhyme, reason, or formality. **Trigger warning - discussion of d...

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...
This past week, I got on a call with one of my one-on-one clients and spent almost an hour digging into comparison, the scale, body image, and what really mattered to her in the long run. Our conversation really got my thinking about the impact of comparison on our careers, health journeys, and mental health overall. As nurses (and women), it is so easy to get caught up in how we measure up to those around us and what other people might think. Let's dig in with a quick little pep talk all abo...
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 nurs...
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 ou...
This is the reminder we all need. Nursing culture often becomes about hierarchies, competition, or "who has it worse" and it's burning us out. Listen to this one when you need to remember your freaking worth as a nurse. Regardless of what kind of nurse you are. 👇👇👇👇👇👇👇 Have you heard the news?!

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...
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. As part of her journey through burnout, recovery, and growth on the other side, her new book, Just A Nurse, was born. I was lucky enough to be a beta reader, and I couldn't put it down. Just A Nurse is the book I wish I had when I first became a nurse, because ...

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. ...
Today's episode is raw, real update on a brand new chapter for the business AND what the heck has been going on with my health!

On Instagram, we are starting a fresh page @healthcoachfornurses -> Go FOLLOW 2. This podcast will come to a close by June 😱 - BUT our new podcast will launch immediately afterwards (called The Healing Healthc...

Reverend Christine is an experienced hospital chaplain, and joins us to discuss her role as a chaplain, some of the misconceptions around when to use this resource, how nurses can feel empowered in their own role as spiritual care generalists, and how to create a boundary between the weight of our work and our lives at home.

Let's dive into a topic that's been on my mind a lot lately: weight loss gaslighting. I may have made this term up, but the impact is very real. It's a critical look at how the weight loss industry has a habit of pointing fingers at individuals for their weight loss challenges, completely overlooking the myriad of underlying health issues that could be at play. Instead of looking at flaws in our programming, obstacles we need to overcome, or root causes in the body that need to be addressed, ...
