On the Season One Finale, I talk with Rachel about her personal struggles and rewards throughout nursing school. How she learned not only how to take better care of other people, but also better care of herself. She talks about the challenges her social anxiety has had on her whole journey through nursing school and how it's helped her come out of her shell. Also, how she continues to try and find confidence in her practice.

Thank you all for listening to me and my friends on this journey. As of right now my plans and hopes is to return in the late summer or fall. For more updates follow me on Instagram @lyfspodcast
