Call Light Chronicals: The Shift that Broke Me and the One That Built Me Back

In this emotional episode of The Call Light Chronicles, we follow Rachel, a nursing student whose dream of becoming a nurse collided with a clinical day that nearly broke her spirit. From charting errors and medication mishaps to tears behind a locked bathroom door, Rachel’s story is one many students will recognize.

But what happened next—a compassionate instructor, a plan for growth, and the decision to try again—transformed failure into fuel for resilience. Today, Rachel is a pediatric oncology nurse who still journals—not her failures, but her moments of impact.

This episode is a tribute to every nursing student who’s ever doubted their place in this profession. Your stumbles don’t define you—your strength does.
