I'm going to share my personal nursing journey of hitting rock bottom and how I used that experience as a launching pad to create a life filled with light and fulfillment in my nursing career.
I vividly remember my first travel nurse assignment, where I experienced the true depths of burnout. The emotional toll, disconnection, and irritability were overwhelming. Little did I know that these feelings were not only affecting my career satisfaction but also my ability to provide quality care to my patients, nurture my relationships, and take care of my own health. But as Steve Jobs once said, "You can only connect the dots looking backwards." And that's exactly what I did.
In this episode, I'll guide you through the process of embracing your rock bottom and using it as a catalyst for positive change. I'll share how I discovered my true passions and values, and how I made intentional shifts in my career and lifestyle to align with them. You'll learn the power of taking radical self-responsibility, identifying what you don't want, and using that knowledge to pave the way for what you truly desire. So, if you're ready to turn your rock bottom into a launching pad for success, this episode is for you!
