Narratives are a CHOICE and when you let your brain run on auto-pilot you brain will go to the default mode— what feels easiest, most convenient, least scary, closest to your comfort zone. When you CHANGE the narrative you also change the doors that are open and available to you.

As a women with big, ambitious dreams it's important to ask yourself, how is this story SERVING me? 

The words you tell yourself, matters

The way you talk to yourself, matters

Your mind is a meaning creating machines and ultimately YOU get to decide what meaning you are creating in your everyday reality.

Finding somebody who can RELATE to the profession of nursing is huge when it comes to considering WHO you are going to take advice from. Jennie is a registered dietitian and she spends her time with us today chatting about all things NUTRITION for NURSES.

• how to start making small shifts in the food you eat before work to set you up for a successful shift
• how to match the work you already do in your shift with checking in on yourself
• the importance nutrition plays in your energy
• how nutrition and sleep are correlated
• the effects stress has on your food choices

& so much more!! Just like everything else her in the Built to Be You fam-- it is about SUSTAINABLE change over time. You are women with big ambitious goals and you were meant to impact your patients in massive ways so it's time to create the ENERGY to do exactly that and what better place to start than with the food you are eating?

I think it’s important to preface this episode with wether you have been a nurse for a year and a half or 15 years, you’ve spent a lot of time learning to live in the routine you currently have

You aren’t going to UNLEARN your current behaviors and patterns overnight but you do have THE CHOICE to make the change now

To give yourself permission to show up for YOU, before everyone else

To strucuture/plan your days off in a way that feels GOOD

Honoring what it is you NEED instead of what it is you should do

Learning to be a steward of your time and energy 

I have been working closely with new clients to honor what they need and own their days off and when you step in to that version of you, not only do you channel your best energy on your day off but you also have MORE energy on the days that you work!

If you are interested in doing FREE 1:1 coaching sessions with me to make some lifestyle shifts, if you are feeling stuck in your current day to day routine, catching yourself playing small, feeling lost in your career or anything else in between-- I'm YA GIRL!

I was put in to major reflection after seeing all of the inspiring as HECK stories after the 126th Boston Marathon. It took me back to when I first started running and I told myself "I will be successful when.." 

& I wanted to share with you how to reframe success in your OWN life to keep chipping away at the big, sometimes scary, goals you have. 

Reminding you that just because she got there that way, doesn't mean that you have to. That you are on such an incredibly unique path to YOU and that is the most beautiful thing. 

I am a running nerd and I love all of the things running has taught me about myself. You can come connect with me on my run coaching business IG @stridesforstrength to see me in my true element!

REMEMBER: if you were gifted with the vision, YOU have the ability to figure out how to make your dreams a reality

A few weeks ago I felt stuck.. in a box that I couldn’t get out 

I wrote in my journal “should I be less multi-dimensional?” as in, I’ve seen a little people do this OR that, tell people they have to be REALLY good at one thing in order to be successful at it 

& here is the thing.. just because SHE got there that way, doesn’t mean that’s the way for you too

Just because SHE has her own version of success doesn’t mean you have to define success the same way 

Just because SHE has her own vision, doesn’t mean you have to share that vision 

You can BE inspired by how she shows up, the things she does but don’t aspire to have the life she has, get INSPIRED to create your own damn truth

This weeks episode will give you DEPTH and INSIGHT to dealing with emotional trauma. Chelsea is an emotional trauma coach who believes you deserve to reclaim your power from past trauma, learn to feel safe in your body and be free of your past survival behaviors while focusing specifically on the role our nervous system plays in:

• the effects of trauma on our nervous system 
• Raw chats about the heaviness of the pandemic nursing & dealing with the “I’m not sure how to process the grief or navigate the emotions that come with trauma”
• How to navigate emotions & the physiological processes your body goes through when doing so 
• How to still provide compassionate care when maybe your patient doesn’t share the same belief as you 
• Understanding that although we have all been living in the same world the last 2+ years, you have a unique perception of what you’ve experience and it’s important to give yourself the SPACE to process that

This is for my friend who: 

• is trying to navigate through what feels like the hardest season she has ever been through
• who feels like she is barely able to make it through the days 
• who is wishing away the season she is in because it feels so unbearable 

I heard this quote in the thickest/deepest part of my burnout and it’s something I remind myself of it everyday

I felt like I was trying to escape from the season I was in, as quick as i could but my body/feet were stuck in quick sand

Like no matter what I did, I wasn’t making forward progress

Life was passing, precious moments, days, weeks and there I was, wishing it away 

One question: if you only live for the best moments instead of the hard, uncomfortable ones what do you miss out on? What are you skipping by? What growth opportunities are you deciding to let pass by you?

I give you 3 challenges in this episode to help you shift from WAITING for this season to pass and start LIVING where you 2 feet stand. 

I believe in YOU, do you?
