It's fun, it's giggles, it's Nurse Brenden! This gem of a human drove down to meet with us and record an episode, and we're so glad because he's such a great and growing nurse content creator! We had a blast talking about his experience nursing, taking shit in this career, his move into the content world, and dissecting Reddit stories and hot takes.

Sit back and enjoy the ASMR that is his adorable Michigan accent for the next 47 minutes and 9 seconds!

This is Dr. Lorre Laws - An absolute pivot queen who started as a CNA, then became an integrated nursing professor, nursing scientist, and author! She came up during a time when nurses had to wear all white and give up their seats to physicians...

So she got mad and wrote a book. Entirely self-funded, this book and all the research into nurse burnout were done without grants or help to get more resources out about the things in the industry that STILL SUCK: The gaslighting, the victim blaming, and the all-around tom foolery of the patriartical aspect of it all. Join us for the most fun and honest conversation! Small spoiler: Burnout is preventable, not inevitable.

TRIGGER WARNING: This episode contains descriptions of violence against women.

On Feb 18th of this year, a 67-year-old nurse named Leela laid out her pajamas and jewelry at home before heading to work, expecting it to be another day of help and healing. However, she would be confronted with a Baker Act patient at work in a West Palm, FL hospital who would beat her into an unrecognizable state. Her daughter joins our host, Lindsey, to talk about the incident, raise awareness on violence against healthcare workers, and talk about the shortage of security in hospitals. This is not a new topic, and that's why it needs attention.

Please take care while listening, and if you have any information about incidents at HCA Florida Palms West Hospital, please email [email protected] , as it could be SO helpful as they build their case.

If you're willing and able, here is the go fund me for Leela: https://www.gofundme.com/f/stand-with-leela

If there's no seat for you at a table, build your own damn table! - Sunny Khangura, The Teaching NP from Canada!

We’re very excited to welcome an international guest who made the trip to talk about lateral moves in healthcare, entrepreneurship, haters (obviously), differences and sad similarities between the US & Canada, and how nurses have SO MANY MORE TRANSFERABLE SKILLS THAN PEOPLE THINK AND WE WILL DIE ON THIS HILL!

So take some YOU time, press play, and join this GREAT conversation.

Today, I'm your Host & Guest- I'm a Ghost! This episode is all about the nursing tips you won't find in a textbook. These are things I've come to learn on my own in my career, some are things you guys have told me on Instagram, and some I found on the internet!

These may be controversial, they may stir doubts, and provoke conversations. That's all well and good, as long as we're not mean - So when in doubt, let's be nice, when not in doubt... still be nice! Enjoy :)

Naturally, people online have a lot to say about us and our relationship. They also have loads of questions, very personal questions, and while it's a weird way to live, having so many people feel they can have input in our relationship, we figured ya'll are going to speculate regardless so for this episode we're inviting you in to pry into our personal life as we answer questions that we've received in our DMs! (which is genuinely a scary place).
