Which MSN Path Is Right for You? A Straightforward Guide for Nurses17 Apr 202500:41:45
Considering getting your Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) but feeling totally overwhelmed by the options? You’re not alone. In this episode, I break down what an MSN actually is (and what it isn’t), the difference between clinical and non-clinical paths, and how to choose a program that aligns with your goals, not just what seems affordable or popular.   You’ll learn:
  • What an MSN really means (and why it’s not a job title)
  • The difference between clinical MSN paths (like NP and CNS) vs. non-clinical paths (like education or leadership)
  • What an APRN is, and how licensure + certification work
  • Common program formats, including direct-entry, competency-based, and post-master’s certificates
  • How to reverse-engineer your education based on the career you actually want
  • Why clarity now can save you time, money, and frustration later

AI at the Bedside: How Artificial Intelligence Is Changing Nursing Right Now10 Apr 202500:42:25
In this episode, I’m joined by Ali Morin, MSN, RN-BC, CNIO, to talk about a topic that’s generating a lot of buzz (and questions): AI in nursing.   We dive into how artificial intelligence is already being used in clinical settings—like fall prevention, EMR automation, staffing optimization, and more. Ali shares her journey from pediatric critical care nurse to informatics leader and offers a clear, thoughtful breakdown of what AI can really do for nurses at the bedside.   We also explore:
  • How AI is helping reduce burnout and documentation overload
  • Why trust is a major barrier for nurses with new tech
  • What nurse leaders need to know about integrating AI tools
  • A hopeful vision of what a med-surg shift could look like 20 years from now
  • Insight on her professional nursing journey to informatics 
Whether you’re a student, new grad, or experienced nurse feeling overwhelmed by clunky workflows—this episode will give you clarity, hope, and a realistic take on where nursing and technology are headed.   “AI can never replace the human touch—but it can absolutely take work off your plate.”   Want more insights like this?

From Chaos to Clarity: Tackling Delirium in the Hospital Setting as a Nurse12 Apr 202300:56:44

If you're a nurse working in a hospital who cares for intubated and sedated patients (ICU nurses!) or on units in which your patients were intubated and sedated (med-surg RNs, I'm talking to you!) you're going to want to listen to this episode. We dig into some mind-blowing and humbling facts about delirium in the ICU, and how we might actually be making things worse.

"Sedation is NOT sleep. Propofol and benzodiazepines disrupt brain activity and PREVENTS REM cycle. We are causing lethal and inhumane sleep deprivation."
