In 2017, she was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia which was the catalyst for her life changing actions.Through natural healing, she was able to get completely clean, lost 60lbs & healed herself from most of her fibromyalgia. Her transformation was so incredible that she decided to give back & became a facilitator to survivors. Sarah was fired from both her nursing jobs, her licence is under investigation and has been defamed by the media for speaking out against the lockdowns.

She is also the founder of “Lighting Up Dark Corners”’.

    Birth, Death, and the Evolving Cycle with Jessica Sobey / ETS10

    It's my pleasure to highlight one of my dearest client's of the Nurse Rx Community. Jess and I have been working together for over 18 months and are truly kindred souls. Jess is an RN in Maine USA and after dabbling in a few different areas of health and nursing, including being a member of her hospitals infectious diseases team, she found her true passion in labor and delivery. She beautifully relates the experience of birth to so many transcendent experiences of life and her heart just sings when she talks about it. In 2022 she made the brave decision to walk away from her job instead of waiting to be fired for her personal choices regarding the vaccine mandates in her state.  Heartbroken and wary from the exhaustion she was experiencing beforehand giving selflessly and tirelessly to her job, her patients, and her colleagues she witnessed so much unfold that left her morally and ethically at a crossroads, as many others have as well. Sandra's Key Takeaways Life is a series of birth and death cycles that hold many magical moments, and incredible gifts if we are open to see them and receive them.The fall of the corporate health care system and the unveiling of the mistreatment and abuse of its workers.The hero identity and the difficulty of caring for ourselves when so much is on the line.Trusting that we will land when the world seems to be flipped upside down and you're being thrown into square one of life.  About Sandra Payne: Sandra Payne is an ex- Registered Nurse and Master Certified  Holistic Trauma Informed Coach and the owner of Sandra Payne  Wellness and founder of the exclusive Nurse Rx Coaching Program.  After 13 years working within the traditional health care system and  experiencing first hand the challenges that come with nursing, Sandra  has a keen understanding of the heavy unrealistic expectations in  nursing, the moral distress, and the stigma that keeps many nurse’s  struggles with depression, anxiety, and trauma, hidden in silence.

    Institutional Betrayal and Nursing with Jasper Pare | ETS08

    Recently terminated RN Jasper Pare joins me for a closeup look at what led him to choose to lose his job as a nurse. He shares vulnerably with us the impact this has all had on his life, both professionally and personally. What's incredible to witness, though, is his resilient mindset of growth and opportunity. Instead of allowing this devastating betrayal to lead him into a pit of despair, he has chosen to rise above it and see all the gifts that revealed themselves to him.   There are so many layers to the decisions of our nursing profession to allow the very code of ethics and morality and our advocacy for patient rights in health care to be eroded with the medical mandates we have seen. And this is just one of the many stories of institutional betrayal so similar to his. How do we move forward from this erosion of trust and integrity in our system? How do we heal as individuals and as a collective culture of health care professionals? These are the questions of importance. Sandra's Takeaways: Are male nurses experiencing the same high level of heavy expectations as their women colleagues?Red flags revealed and the questions so many are asking… why are alternate views and conflicting research being left out and censored?Medical mandates and the wake of devastation. Healing from institutional betrayalShifting our perspective Link to YouTube video Institutional Betrayal: https://youtu.be/PDXb8Jfa2uE About the Guest: Jasper Pare is a recently terminated Registered Nurse who joins us for a closeup look at what led him to choose to lose his job as a nurse.
