How you fuel your body affects what energy is produced, how you show up in the world and even your mental health is affected by what you eat. Therefore, when we speak of purpose and living out our calling, I believe nutrition and wellbeing play a fundamental role in fulfilling it.   LETS TALK FOOD! Eating a balanced diet filled with protein, carbohydrates, healthy fats, vitamins and minerals is essential to sustain energy levels and provide the body with the nutrients it needs to thrive.  Our Special Guest this episode, Angelia, shares her journey to becoming a Plant Based Coach and the work she does in the community to share this message of sustainability and health to those who need it most but who can't seem to afford healthy foods. Busy Nurses can value this the most as we focus on going the distance in our careers and our passions by learning more about healthy ways to fuel our bodies the right way!

Placed in your Purpose with Dr Lauren Dunn DNP APRN-PMHNP-BC  Sink or swim, this is your time to decide, how will you show up? The situations that break us are usually the ones that shape us. Its the character building needed for your next level.  That loss that you thought was a loss was God's protection and what he will use for your purpose path. Trust him. Dr Lauren had to make that same decision, in one of the toughest times in her career, even before the career started- still in Nursing school she learned a valuable lesson about self care and compassion. This journey of becoming has now led her to the career she loves as a Mental Health practitioner helping underserved populations in many different stages of life while still making room for her well being.  So what does it mean to turn the pain and the breakdowns into a platform to help others while still prioritizing you along the way?  It means being honest with yourself and allowing yourself to be vulnerable. It means recognizing your strengths and weaknesses and being open to learning and growing. It means knowing that it's okay to ask for help. Join another self care for healthcare conversion with us!

Have you felt more irritable lately? Difficulty making decisions about your work? Have you felt intimidated or honestly too scared to reach out to Doctors or healthcare professionals about your concerns? These can all be signs of further healing that is needed. And that's ok. It's important to take the time to address these feelings and take steps towards healing.  In today's podcast episode, The Nurse Healer is sharing more about her passion for nurse breakthroughs! Yes, Nurses need healing too! And its ok that we take ownership of the necessity of growth and development. We can still be on a well being journey as we continue to help and serve our patients. In fact, it's to our patients overall benefit that we do the healing that is needed so we can continue to do the work we are called to!  Taking ownership of our own growth allows us to be more creative, innovative, and productive in our work. It also helps us to stay focused and motivated to continue our journey.  As the most trusted profession Nurses are seen as advocates and voices for fair and just care! And we should be vigilant about protecting our tools of the trade, everyday.  Taking ownership of our own growth not only helps us in our careers, but also in our lives.  We should take the necessary steps to take care of ourselves and ensure our wellbeing. This includes setting boundaries, making time for hobbies, and seeking help when needed. Join us in another self care conversation with Mykesha Mack also known as The Nurse Healer!

Mindful about your purpose Interview with Dr. Keilah B Ford, DNP, FNP-C, PMHNP-BC Living in the present moment can be difficult for many of us. Our society is built on doing as much as you can as quickly as you can, its always hustle, hustle, go! The reality is that pushing through, stuffing down emotions and feelings does not lead to clarity in your purpose but can be harmful to your mental health and overall well being. As nurses, we get good at compartmentalizing but when does it cross the line and prevent us from reaching the next level in our purpose? Dr Keilah shares the ups and downs of her Nursing career of over 18 years and how the changes in her careers, the uncertainty and health problems lead her to real life solutions. Through the pain there is a purpose. There is a reason you are experiencing these problems and maybe you are the one to find the answers to solve it! As we explore mindfulness in our self-care experience, you'll find your life's purpose becomes clearer. Join the Nurse Wellness Movement as we learn how to glow from the inside out!

With the holidays right around the corner, you will encounter all sorts of invites, events, opportunities and temptations! Leading to the all too familiar response of overcommitting.

But does it really make you a “good Nurse” or do you find yourself feeling resentful anyways???! If you feel overextended and over committed  Take inventory of your current season and commitments,  Ask yourself the hard questions, do I really have the space to commit ? Do I feel pressured, guilty or obligated to commit?  Dont overthink the ask from the other party, answer with kindness and compassion but don't over think your answer or their response, you are only responsible for your response This holiday season, don't fall into the trap of over committing  Instead commit to what matters and make use of the time you do have !

I get it, not everyone is a morning person Being a morning person doesn't fix all your problems or make your day less stressful but it gives you time to prepare for the stress and handle it more effectively! One of the best habits that have changed how I show up each day is incorporating a quick morning routine,  Spending the extra time in the morning to prepare mentally and physically starts the night before with a bedtime routine! These routines add to your life and are not strict rules but guidelines that help keep you on track with your self care !  Being unrelentless about your self care is your responsibility because no one else will look out for you like you!

How does self discipline help busy nurses when we are already busy enough?? In today's Podcast episode we go deeper into translation and I share ways you can build or fortify your current self discipline practices, so you can show up at what you do best!  Being an amazing and caring Nurse Leader! Self discipline is about forgoing what you want in the moment, to do what's best for you overall !  But this takes some bigger picture thinking!  Discipline is an amazing practice though tough in the beginning will get you the results you want!  Even if you have great skills in helping others, communicating, etc., but you lack the discipline to get up each day and drive yourself to work, or continue communicating with every patient, what is the point of your talent?? Changing the negative narrative of discipline to one that ADDS to your life, builds character and dedication and in the long run helps you create the life you truly want is key to getting the most results!

Our feelings are a Natural part of life, these feelings warn us and give us signals about what our body needs. As a Nurse it can be easy to hide or distract ourselves from the feels because it is all too overwhelming. One way I distracted and comforted myself was by eating. Emotional eating was another form of self sabotage because I used this habit to deal with my stress instead of learn from it!  I didn't realize that is what I was doing I was just trying to survive ! It wasn't until I did some loving and quiet introspection that I could be really honest with myself so I could change. Creating a Healthy Relationship with food is how I overcame and so can you! Take back your life and your health by practicing better self care strategies so you can show up as the powerful Nurse you are meant to be !  Give your very best to others by putting yourself first and self care is how we do that!

Nursing as an Empath?! Do you identify as being highly attuned to your feelings, emotions and surroundings? How sensitive are you to certain levels of noise or smells? Have people labeled you as sensitive, emotional or way too nice? The answer to these questions could describe a person known as “empath”. On a higher level than empathy, Empaths take on the other person's feelings and can feel very connected to those around them and their surroundings. Just like any other skill or talent if not fine tuned it can drain you! Being an Empath is a plus as a Nurse, we can anticipate needs and be a great support for our patients. But protecting your “power” is key to not losing your light and overextending yourself to the point of no return! Join me as I discuss  What exactly does it mean to be an Empath in Nursing? How to protect your “power” ? How to grow and glow through the “Empath” experience? Want to be better at showing empathy to others?

Does Transitioning get any easier? Something that I have learned in this entrepreneurship journey is, "There will never been an orientation book to becoming a Entrepreneur".   This is all self guided!! Taking the leap and having faith can be an uncomfortable part of change! But transitions and change is apart of life. And ultimately these changes grow us and challenge us for the better. Staying stagnant is not the way of life, even the weather has seasons and transitions! So how can we, as nurses or even nurses thinking about or becoming entrepreneurs take this as a lesson?   Coach Lorelle Woods and I dive deeper into this topic. Exercising faith, confidence and flexibility in life overall are great ways to protect your mental health and make transitions and changes come with ease.

Mental health & wellness has been getting a lot of popularity and rightly so we should be talking about it!  Mental health is not a crutch, it's not a label... There are actual chemical reactions affecting our mood, motivation and focus !! Its all part of our body's natural process in which our moods and behaviors are regulated   Imbalances in these happy hormones can cause low mood swings.  So you not having the energy or motivation to workout is not because your not focused or committed enough! There is an actual depletion! BUT there are some tools you can add to your arsenal that can help you improve these chemical imbalances and ease the symptoms!!! Getting active creates a sense of well-being and achievement which releases more happy hormones like Serotonin! These hormones and molecules help your brain grow and you can begin to change your thought patterns!!

Lets face it change is hard! Especially if the change is uncomfortable or takes a lot of effort! So many people think they are ready to change and commit but when it comes time to do the WORK they fall off! It happens! You hype yourself up thinking this BIG change is going to happen then it does not pan out! Or even worst you put in all the effort and the BIG CHANGE doesn't last! So how do you know you are truly ready to change and not just chasing the next fad ??? In this episode I share SIGNS that you are ready to commit and ready to make lasting change! Join us April 1st if you are ready to get back to your self care foundations and create a lasting lifestyle of health & healing as a Busy Nurse!
