Beat Nurse Burnout | Holistic Wellness, Stress Management, Burnout Recovery, Caregiver Fatigue, Identity

Hi Nurse friend,

February. The month when the world celebrates love with cards, chocolates, and flowers. But for so many nurses in the trenches of burnout, love feels like something we give away but never quite know how to receive. We pour ourselves out shift after shift, caring for everyone but ourselves, all while a quiet voice whispers we're not quite enough. Not worthy enough. Not deserving enough.

But today, I want to remin...

Hi Nurse friend, What happens when chronic pain, burnout, and nervous system dysregulation start stealing your ability to feel — not just physically, but emotionally and intimately?

In this powerful episode, I sit down with Honey Hull, NP, a pain and sex coach who understands firsthand what it’s like to live in a body shaped by stress, trauma, and exhaustion. Honey shares her personal story of burnout and chronic pain, and how it...

Welcome back to Beat Nurse Burnout.

In Part 1, we heard Ondrea Lynn’s powerful testimony of trauma, spiritual searching, and finding true freedom in Jesus. Today, we’re continuing the conversation — and we’re going to talk about something deeply relevant to so many nurses:

The connection between burnout, stress, and our bodies.

If you’re a nurse who has: -Gained weight during years of high stress or night shifts -Used food, alcoho...

Hey friend, Today we're talking about something I know you're feeling — that bone-deep exhaustion that doesn't go away with a day off or even a vacation.

If you're a nurse or caregiver who keeps showing up, keeps performing, keeps pushing through... but inside you're running on empty? This episode is for you.

We're diving into three types of fatigue that are slowly draining your body, overwhelming your mind, and leading you straigh...

Hi Sweet friend, 

Today’s episode is tender, powerful, and real. If you’re a nurse or healthcare professional who has been:

• Spiritually curious but still searching
• Carrying unhealed trauma beneath a capable exterior
• Exploring “spiritual things” but feeling unsettled or empty
• Or quietly wondering if there’s more t...

Hi Nurse friend, What if you made this the year of REST. What if you looked at the new year as an opportunity to come out of survival mode.

Nursing trains us to survive. Push through. Power on. Handle it. Keep going.

And while survival may get you through a shift, it is not meant to be your way of life.

God did not create you to live in constant urgency. He created you for peace.

Survival mode keeps your nervous system on high ...

Hey there, beautiful soul. Today we're talking about something that affects every single one of us, but especially my nurse mamas out there who are grinding through those 12-hour shifts.

We're talking about pain.

Pain is stealing from you. It's stealing your presence. It's stealing your joy. It's stealing your ability to be fully there for your patients, your kids, and your spouse.

And I'm not just talking about the physical toll...

Hey Mama friend, You know what's stressful most Christmases?? Gift giving!! But does it have to be?? I did an amazing episode with author, Jenna Michael last year- Check out episode #125 if you are feeling that stress. Now the reason it can be stressful is because when we are in high pressure situations- the deadline of Christmas day- we go into autopilot. These are our natural ways to function for our nervous system to protect...

Hey Nurse friend, Take a deep breath. You made it here, and that alone shows how much your soul is craving a moment of peace.

If you are listening as a nurse who is exhausted—emotionally, physically, spiritually—I want you to know this: You are not alone. You’re not failing. And your feelings are valid.

Christmas can feel heavy when you’re the one holding everyone else together. But today, you get to be held.

This breath prayer ...

Hi Sweet Caregiver! Today, we're talking about decisions. Or more specifically, unmade decisions.

You know that feeling when you walk into your closet and see those three bags of clothes you've been meaning to donate for six months? Or when you open your email and there are 47 unread messages staring back at you? Or when you stand in front of the pantry at 5 PM, absolutely paralyzed about what to make for dinner... again?

That fe...

Hi Brave Caregiver! Have you ever noticed that the more stressed you feel, the more your body seems to rebel — tight hips, bladder leaks, or that constant clenching you can’t relax? Today we’re diving into the science behind that with Jenn Lormand from Tighten Your Tinkler. She’s breaking down how stress hormones, fight-or-flight responses, and even low estrogen levels all team up to make pelvic floor problems worse — and, more i...

Hey Sweet Caregiver! We have hit a huge milestone here on the podcast- 200 episodes - only about 2% of podcasts ever reach this point! So I think this confirms the call even more when God told me to do this and it confirms that I don't give up- character is built with grit and grace. But, I want to celebrate YOU!!! Because if I had zero listeners, believe me it would have been harder to continue! Or even just a few if I'm Honest...

Hi Wellness Warrior! 

Have you ever felt at war with your own body — like no matter what you eat, how much you sleep, or how hard you try to “do everything right,” your body just isn’t cooperating?

Maybe your hormones feel all over the place — the PMS, the fatigue, the anxiety that seems to come out of nowhere. 

Or maybe you’ve struggled with your relationship with food or your body? You have an eating disorder that constantly haun...
