Could you be burned out? Burnout isn’t just a buzzword—it’s a silent epidemic affecting nurses everywhere. In this episode, I’m getting real about how I recognised I was completely burnt out while working in an acute hospital, the warning signs I ignored, and how I found my way back to feeling like me again.

I’ll walk you through the emotional, physical, and spiritual symptoms I experienced and share the top 5 tools that helped me reclaim my well-being from the inside out.

If you’re a nurse constantly giving, pushing through exhaustion, and wondering when it’s your turn to feel good again, this one’s for you.

🎧 We’ll cover:

• What burnout really is (and how it shows up)
• How to know if you’re burnt out or just tired
• My personal healing toolkit to feel mentally clear, physically energised, and spiritually grounded

This episode is your reminder that you don’t have to lose yourself to the job you love.

✨ Prioritising YOU is the best medicine.
