I am being optimistic and endorsing that the seasons changing will aid in my adjustment.

[Journey Thru, Its All Good 💟💅🏽 @sweetest_taurus]

Ive now pivoted and left bedside an work 5/8s. Its definitely an adjustment period.
I miss sleeping in.

[Journey Thru, Its All Good 💟💅🏽 @sweetest_taurus]

Im an RN. Been working bedside on 3/12’s for a while. Became a nurse for this schedule an flexibility.

A big part of my job is patient education. And today, I did my big one. Bc I stay up to date on the most common illnesses. I was able to give her the best, most accurate information and she was able to take it in. An sooth herself.

I mistakenly told sum1 they was covid positive before their doctor today. An she was sooooo upset. She thought it was a death sentence. I seen her reaction and instinctively knew why she was upset. I was able to console her an reassure her. An HELP her!

Health care is a wild WILD place. But I LOVE it!

[Journey Thru, Its All Good 💟💅🏽 @sweetest_taurus]

As a nursing professional, why would me ASKING you for help in developing and growing professional be intimidating?

[Journey Thru, Its All Good 💟💅🏽 @sweetest_taurus]

Which is sad af!

[Journey Thru, Its All Good 💟💅🏽 @sweetest_taurus]

Inefficient management do not like ppl who look to them to help develop you. I’ve been told I come off as intimidating an unapproachable bc of this.

My wife is a Director of Services for a company. A she is sooooooo good at what she does. An it’s given me another perspective of how to grow myself. A big part of tht is self advocacy.

[Journey Thru, Its All Good 💟💅🏽 @sweetest_taurus]

An not in a confrontational way. But in a way of development. Management sumtimes forget this aspect of being in a leadership role.

[Journey Thru, Its All Good 💟💅🏽 @sweetest_taurus]

I have a “I like to be challenged “ mindset. An sumtimes tht makes ppl, especially management, very fckn uncomfortable. Bc tht means they gon b challenged as well.

Not every environment will suit everyone.

Being a safe, confident an capable nurse doesn’t happen overnight or easily. School teaches u to pass a national test. But to actually LEARN how to BE a nurse ……. U gotta go thru the TRENCHES!

[Journey Thru, Its All Good 💟💅🏽 @sweetest_taurus]

I think tht ppl who burn out quickly dnt really remember to think about this aspect of being a caretaker.

[Journey Thru, Its All Good 💟💅🏽 @sweetest_taurus]

It takes a lot of confidence building to walk into rooms where ppl have the desire to doubt u before they even kno ur name.

[Journey Thru, Its All Good 💟💅🏽 @sweetest_taurus]

U literally have to choose every day to not gaf about the ppl who are messy or want u to care about their opinions.

[Journey Thru, Its All Good 💟💅🏽 @sweetest_taurus]

Don’t get me wrong, it’s also very toxic and full of gaslighting favoritism. But once u get passed that an learn how to navigate tht part it’s legit fun.

[Journey Thru, Its All Good 💟💅🏽 @sweetest_taurus]

Being a nurse is legit the best career. At least for me. The amount of legit freedom I have over myself is very refreshing.

[Journey Thru, Its All Good 💟💅🏽 @sweetest_taurus]

I legit can’t not wait to get off work and go home to my wife and jus melt into her.
