78. I Didn’t Plan This Pause… But It Changed Everything
Send me a text - make sure to include your full phone number so I can reply (software blocks it) 💕
After an unexpected injury and a couple of months away from the podcast, I’m finally back — and this pause brought more clarity than I ever expected.
In this episode, I’m sharing what happened, what this season taught me, and why The Nurses’ Breakroom with Jenny Lytle, RN is shifting to focus more intentionally on the emotional realities of hospice nursing.
After 20 years in hospice case management, on-call, and leadership roles, one thing has become increasingly clear:
Hospice nurses carry a lot.
Emotionally, mentally, physically, and spiritually.
This new season will center more on supporting hospice nurses through practical self-care tools, emotional resilience, and honest conversations about what this work really feels like.
I’m also introducing The Hospice Nurse Well-Being Project and inviting hospice nurses to participate in Hospice Nurse Conversations — relaxed, confidential 20–30 minute conversations about the realities of this work.
