    I Must Confess: New Grad Edition w/ Jared

    I Must Confess: New Grad Edition w/ Jared

    We've made it the end!!!



    ... Of season 2, guys, don't worry. This season, we received so many stories from our listeners, and our personal favorites were usually the new grad ones because it's something we all have in common. We all know what it was like to be a new grad.... it lowkey sucked!

    However, in the spirit of community, this pod is where we can learn from and with each other by sharing our stories, struggles, and sometimes trauma!

    So, let's dive in and close out season 2 with some Frenemas submission stories!

    The Worst Day Ever w/ Jaeda Simmons

    The Worst Day Ever w/ Jaeda Simmons

    Trigger warning: Infant Loss

    In 2021, Jaeda is eight months pregnant and is excitedly awaiting the arrival of her first baby, a boy to be named Myers. She's living in Las Vegas, Nevada; she's a 25-year-old Black woman, and going into her last ultrasound - in this episode, she takes us through the worst day ever.

    Lindsey and Anna, an L&D nurse, listen to and talk with Jaeda about her experience, the nurse who helped along the way, how she coped, and everything she learned after the fact.

    It's sad, shocking, important, and inspiring, AND it has a rainbow baby at the end!

    Doo Doo & Delivery w/ Anna the Nurse

    When it comes to time with Anna, you know it's going to be fun at full speed! Anna's return to the hot seat means wild delivery stories, poop, and sad stories - Labor & Delivery Nurses are a different breed! But here at Friends & Enemas, we're all about balance, so you'll also hear about partners who pass out, finding the wrong hole (hate when that happens), and other tips and tricks!

    Enjoy the full spectrum of emotion with this one!

    No Crowns No Glory w/ Nicole C

    No Crowns No Glory w/ Nicole C

    TRIGGER WARNING: In this episode, we talk about addiction! 

    BUT we also cover a lot more! Together we dive deep into stories, experiences, and traumas about pediatric vs adult ICU, being a patient (and being impatient) as a healthcare worker, addiction in our families, and we try new food combos! Bring some tissues, I definitely needed them!

    It's heavy, it's light, it's everything all at once, but the moral of the story is always to be kind and empathetic!

Daniela Boone ,

Love this podcast!

I love your reels and podcast! I have listened to every episode and can’t wait for new episodes. I will be starting nursing school next month and love the insight you provide about the struggles the career is facing at the moment. I think my favorite are the new grad stories, I know I will go back and listen once I am that far along; I’m sure it will help me not feel alone in those times I feel dumb lol.

Really hard to follow

Unfortunately as a listener this podcast is hard to follow along with. I start listening and I’m lost. Very random content
