The Other Preventative Care12 Oct 202100:35:16

So much can change in a year, and much of that revolves around mental health. So why does our healthcare system not give it the true support it deserves?

Mental Health in the Time of COVID with ShrinkChicks31 Aug 202100:56:15

Trigger Warning: death and serious illness. Healthcare workers are on the front lines of the COVID-19 pandemic and the stories shared in this episode from an inside, firsthand perspective are heavy and potentially triggering.


Today’s episode is a guest episode with the mental health professionals of the ShrinkChicks podcast, Emmalee and Jen. We have a powerful conversation about my experience working on the frontlines of the COVID-19 crisis as a nurse. We discuss my firsthand experiences from a New York Hospital (right after a major break-up, mind you), my own severe case of COVID, how the work affected my mental health, burnout, and switching careers. I also share why I left the nursing profession all together, what I am doing now, and why part of my new mission is to help nurses find their passion.

Honoring the Memory of Ebi: Up Close and Personal with Ebi of @NurseLifeRN, Part 1 (Re-release)27 Jul 202100:53:29

Our hearts are heavy with the passing of Ebi (@nurselifern @ebi_eats) this past week. We first met in 2014 and I can honestly say he was one of the most genuine humans I’ve ever known.

I want to honor his legacy and re-release the first 2 episodes of this podcast, of which I had the honor of interviewing him in a very candid one on one (which was actually the only time he was on the receiving end of an interview - something we both got a kick out of). 

Here’s to you Ebi, your impact, your legacy, your influence. We love you.

I'm Not Trendy13 Jul 202100:34:13

As you guys know, I resigned from my full-time hospital position at the end of 2020 due to burnout and bullying, and have grown my Instagram platform to be a major source of my income, which I love! However, last week, the head of Instagram made an announcement that has a lot of us content creators frustrated and, frankly, pissed off. This week, I talk about NOT following the popular trends, a message that can apply to many aspects of life.

Keeping Dead Weight Around25 May 202100:17:22

After being told to wear a mask by security, this woman proceeded to remove her thong, and fashion it over her nose and mouth... I'm at a loss for words on this one.
