    200. The One Thing You Need so Self-Care Stops Feeling Impossible (And BIG Announcement!)

    Oooh, the burden of self-care!...it's such an oxymoron, right?? Self-care is supposed to be relaxing, but trying to fit it into my life used to totally stress me out! What I used to think (and what you might believe, too) is that in order to make self-care doable, what I needed was more TIME. The problem is, more time is hard to come by...I have yet to figure out how to extend the days to 26 hours...But thankfully, I have figured out what I actually needed all along to make self-care happen (and hint: it was NOT more time). So to take the heaviness out of self-care, join me for this week's podcast episode - self-care will feel so much lighter, more doable, and more ENJOYABLE.

Momentum

Great perspectives on how to choose what type of energy you want to bring to your unit. I just left a unit of 9.5 years for a brand new unit and new people and this has been a challenge. I am excited and inspired to learn new things in this unit and some of my coworkers have been in this unit for a while and the “flaws” are known to them. I want to be real and dependable and also inspiring to those I work around.

Ready to change my life

Abby,
Thank you so much for sharing this amazing content. A coworker just introduced this podcast to me, and I feel like thanks to this info you are sharing, I am able to start taking steps to changing my life. Your concepts are simple to understand and well communicated with real-life examples that are applicable to so many different areas of life. So far my favorite episodes I’ve listened to are Mom guilt, meeting my needs in my marriage, crucial conversations, and people displeasing. You are teaching me that I have power and control to positively impact my life, which will in turn benefit the lives of my family, friends, and patients. Thank you for making me feel so much hope and giving me tools to embark on this journey of self care and self love!!!

What a great way to start each shift!

I discovered this podcast a couple of months ago and couldn’t be more grateful for it! I listen to an episode before each shift to help me get in the right mindset for work, and the timing of finding this podcast couldn’t have been more perfect! I’m a brand new nurse working in my first nursing job in a SNF. I’m a little over 90 days in and have already learned so much and experienced many firsts, one of which shook me to my core and made me question if I was even in the right career (I experienced my first full code ever). Abby, you have helped me not only move past this experience but also to realize this is a great learning opportunity. Thank you for helping me grow in confidence and have a more open mind to this process of getting into nursing. Keep up the great work!!
