In this episode, we talk with Emily Knife, nurse, entrepreneur, founder, and creator of The Nurse Dream Lab. Aimed at helping nurses with mental health, trauma healing, and rewiring subconscious patterns. She shares her journey, what inspired The Nurse Dream Lab, and explains Somatic Nursing as a practical approach to tracking limiting beliefs and supporting mental health.

We chat about what it means to make subconscious shifts, use tools like “unstacking trauma,” and rewrite personal narratives to transform struggle into strength. We hit tough questions about mandatory therapy for nurses, the role of sensitivity training, and how nursing becomes a deep part of personal identity.

Emily & Lindsey open up about their own strategies for coping with grief and trauma, and share visions for Modern Nurse Fest, where Lindsey will be a keynote speaker!
