It was just over 12 hours after leaving the OR when I recorded this episode. I had a mastectomy the day before. I had a very short night of sleep and I was still wobbly when I got up in the morning. I had a pretty good memory of getting ready to be wheeled to the OR, being in recovery, and being awakened by the plastic surgeon before 7am on post op day 1.  It was a completely novel experience, as is the journey ahead, as I navigate breast cancer life. This is my patient experience, on the flip-side of healthcare.    The Careerwise Nurse podcast is meant for you if you are launching your career, growing into your role, or seeking ways to thrive as a nurse!  The Careerwise Nurse podcast is from nurses for nurses.

Careerwise Nurse guest Amanda Jacob, RN-BSN, is a financial coach who helps nurses take control of their money and mindset. Amanda will tell you about her work life balance and how she has achieved it in just 5 years working as a nurse. Also, Amanda shares how she and her husband paid off an $80,000 debt in 1.5 years.     Amanda coaches nurses on how to achieve what they want in the future, including building up opportunities to step away from the bedside (i.e. working part-time, retiring early, etc.). About Amanda: Amanda began her professional career as a Registered Nurse because of a desire to help people. Early in her professional life, she and her husband were making over $100,000 and still living paycheck-to-paycheck. They knew something needed to change and found financial coaching, which resulted in a life-changing shift in their money, from that moment on. She and her husband found freedom in their lives by creating financial freedom. From this experience, Amanda realized she  wanted to help other people experience that same mental clarity around finances.   Amanda says she  couldn't shake the feeling that financial coaching was what she was meant to do and nursing has given her  the skills to coach. She now helps other people master their money through planning, budgeting, execution, and accountability. She is on a mission to help other nurses gain control of their finances and start living the life they dream of.   Connect with Amanda:  lifechangesbyyou.com amanda@lifechangesbyyou.com Facebook: Life Changes by You  Instagram: @lifechangesbyyou Are you looking to get more out of nursing than just a job?

This episode opens the door to the discussion of professional self care. Host Natalie D'Itri discusses 3 tips for managing self care on the job. 1. How many hours into your shift until you actually eat, drink or go to the bathroom? Do you take a break during your shifts? Does anyone on the unit sit down to eat or get off the unit during break times?  2. Do you finish your shift on time? Is the unit culture focused on finishing on time or is it typical that the staff leaves 30 minutes (or later.....) after the end of a shift?  If you work in an office role or outpatient setting, do you walk out the door at your scheduled finish time or is the day typically longer? 3. Have you ever skimped on sick time to save more paid time off for vacation days? How are sick and vacation time allotted? Is time off from one PTO bank? Do you get to take planned vacations? Is it hard to get time off when you want it?  Are you working your dream job or dreaming of another job?  Are you making sacrifices in your personal and professional life at your current job?
