In this episode of The Functional Nurse Podcast, Brigitte Sager interviews Jazmine Reyes, RN, BSN, BC-NC, about her journey from ICU nursing to holistic and functional medicine practice. Jaz shares her experiences as a travel nurse during the pandemic, which led her to shift towards a more intentional, slow-paced, and ancestral approach to health. Together, they discuss how nurses can integrate ancestral wisdom, mindfulness, and slowing down into modern healthcare while navigating the challenges of burnout and fast-paced environments.

Brigitte and Jaz explore how functional medicine and holistic nursing can reconnect patients to core health principles, such as nutrition, emotional well-being, and mindfulness. They discuss the importance of gut health, stress management, and taking time to slow down in a world that often prioritizes speed. This episode is an insightful resource for RNs, NPs, and holistic nurse coaches eager to learn more about functional nursing practices.
