Why do you nurse? Really. Have you thought about it lately? How come you are in nursing and why do you do the job of a nurse? This next interview will have you reflecting on your “why” in your nursing career.

A few take aways from our interview with Ashley include:

• How an experience working during a hurricane in NYC can be the most successful thing you do as a nurse;
• What a nurse journalist means for the profession of nursing;
• And why realizing there is a whole person in front of you as a patient can impact the way you show up in your career!
