Hey Wellness Warrior!

Let’s talk today about something I know hits home for so many of us nurses, healthcare pros, caregivers...

👉 “How do I reduce stress... when healthcare IS stressful?”

Because you might be thinking: “Shan, I don’t need a stress assessment—I KNOW I’m stressed. But I can’t exactly walk away from my shift, from charting, from patient care, or from my calling.”

And you’re right. You can’t change everything about t...

Welcome Intentional Wellness Warrior! Today, I want to speak to my nurse and healthcare mama friends—and really any caregiving mom—who’s said something like:

“I don’t think I’m burnt out from work… It’s probably just homeschool burnout.” Or, “No, I love my job. Getting out of the house actually helps!”

If that’s been you, I want to say two things up front:

💛 I hear you 💛 And... can we pause and look at the whole picture? You are...

Hey Intentional Wellness Warrior! I thought about this word and action we do often in nursing…priming. We prime tubing with saline to prepare it for the solution we intend to get to the patient. You are making something ready for use by priming it. Let's relate this to our minds. Yes, we have stressful jobs in healthcare, but are we unintentionally priming your mind for stress and anxiety? Are we setting ourselves up to fail or...

Hey Nurse Mom, Caregiver friend, 

You care for everyone so well, but do not have the time, energy or belief left to care for yourself. I believe if we truly found ourselves worthy of the crown, found our worth as a daughter of the King and lived in that truth, we wouldn't find ourselves in Stressedout-ville or Burnout Bay. I think it all comes back to worth. self-worth. Do you know he created YOU as a masterpiece! And he planned ...

Hey Wellness Warrior! 

i didn't know I was in burnout for years!! This means I had many different transitions in and out of my life and still didnt know. I thought this is life, and I am managing it the best I can.  And we hear that advice or encouragement often - “you are doing the best you can.” And not to shame that advice at all, but is that really it? If we are just managing the best we can with the resources at our disposal i...

Hi Intentional Wellness Warrior! 

You care for everyone else. You know a lot about health and wellness and medicine. But, do you care for your own wellness? I was so bombarded with medicine, that it was very normal for me to pop 800 mg of ibuprofen for a headache, but not address my eating or sleeping habits. It was very normal for me to deal with gut issues for - my whole life really- and take my IBS diagnosis as B.S. and continue...

Hi Intentional Wellness Warrior! 

Ch cha changes.... I actually don't like when things change, but I've learned to appreciate the growth. If I'm abiding with Jesus, then when things change (not all) it's for my growth of more fruit.

For two, I’m going to talk more to the person I was...which is a b...
