Why Slowing Down Helps Women in Healthcare Succeed

The more you slow down, the faster you go.

Sounds backwards, right?
But let me explain...

In healthcare, we’re conditioned to keep pushing.
To stay busy.
To hustle harder.
To always be doing something “productive.”

But if you’ve ever tried to run on empty for too long, you already know how this ends:
Burnout. Exhaustion. Resentment. And no real progress.

Rest Isn’t the Opposite of Progress—It’s the Prerequisite

I used to think stopping would slow me down.
But now I know: Rest, recovery, and boundaries are what keep me moving.

If I don’t take time to pull back and reset, nothing flows. I’m just spinning my wheels.
But when I intentionally slow down—when I sleep, reflect, plan, and restore myself—I move forward faster, with clarity and energy.

This isn’t laziness. It’s strategy.
This is what a soft life looks li...

For All the Moms In Healthcare

Is it actually possible for moms in healthcare to feel present with their kids?

The short answer? Yes—but not by doing more.

Many moms in healthcare find themselves caught between two worlds.
One moment you're giving your all to patients, the next you’re home—but emotionally drained, mentally overloaded, and struggling to reconnect with your family.

And even on your days off, it doesn’t always get easier.

Why “Trying Harder” Isn’t the Solution

You’ve probably already tried:

• Getting up earlier

• Planning "quality time"

• Mastering time management

• Multitasking everything

But the truth is… the exhaustion and guilt never fully go away.

That’s because the problem isn’t your effort—it’s the expectation that you have to be everything to everyone, all the time.

The Real Turning Point? Boundaries.

The real shi...

3 Money Mindset Shifts Every Woman in Healthcare Needs to Know

Here are 3 mindset shifts that have massively improved my life as a nurse practitioner —and they can change yours, too.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re constantly working but never getting ahead financially, you’re not alone. Many women in healthcare feel stuck in a cycle of picking up overtime just to keep up with expenses. But what if there was another way?

Let’s talk about the shifts that can help you build wealth, reduce stress, and take back control of your money.

💡 #1: Building Wealth (even on a Nurse’s Salary) Isn’t Impossible

You don’t need a six-figure tech job or a finance degree to build wealth—you just need a system.

The key isn’t necessarily making more money. It’s about managing what you already earn with intention.
When you know where your money is going, have a simple system to fol...

Rewriting the Rules: Boundaries for Women in Healthcare

The secret is out: I am completely rewriting the rules for women in healthcare who want more.

More freedom.
More energy.
More say in how their career supports their life—not steals from it.

My Burnout Origin Story (AKA, What I Thought I Had to Be)

I used to believe I had to be the “easygoing one.”

You know the type:

• The one who picks up all the extra shifts

• The one who stays quiet when things feel unfair

• The one who puts everyone else’s needs before her own

I said yes when I wanted to say no.
Avoided hard conversations.
Let resentment simmer under the surface while I smiled through it all.

The result?

I was burned out. Drained. And quietly miserable.

The Wake-Up Call

One day it hit me—no one was coming to rescue me from this cycle.

I had to stop waiting for someone else to notice ho...

The Real Reasons Women in Healthcare Are Burned Out

If you’re a woman working in healthcare and constantly asking yourself “Why am I so tired all the time?”—you’re not alone. Burnout isn’t a personal failure. It’s the natural outcome of a system that conditions women to ignore their needs and push through exhaustion.

We normalize skipping breaks, surviving off caffeine and granola bars, and saying “yes” to every extra shift—even when we’re running on empty. But none of that is sustainable.

Let’s break it down.

Here’s What Contributes to Nurse Burnout (That No One Talks About):

• You keep saying yes to extra shifts—even when you’re exhausted

• You don’t schedule consistent self-care or rest into your week

• Your body is undernourished with quick snacks instead of real meals

• You sleep less than 7 hours most nights, then wonder why you can’t focus

• Y...

From Burnout to Balance: A New Way for Women in Healthcare

I don’t think you should have to choose between working in healthcare and having a healthy, thriving personal life… so I’ve been taking matters into my own hands.

For years, I thought exhaustion, anxiety, and missing out on life’s biggest moments were just part of the job.

I worked hard. I picked up extra shifts. I told myself I’d rest “later.”

But then my body gave me no choice.
The burnout hit me hard.
And my physical health had already deteriorated without me even noticing.

That’s when it hit me:
If I didn’t make a change, this job would break me.

What I Did Instead

I stopped waiting for the system to get better.
Instead, I:

• Set strong boundaries around work

• Took control of my finances so I didn’t rely on overtime

• Explored career options that aligned with my values and life

Finding Jobs That Align With Your Personal Values and Lifestyle

How can women in healthcare find jobs that align with their personal values and lifestyle?

So many women in healthcare think they have to fit their lives around a rigid job—but it doesn’t have to be that way.

It starts with getting crystal clear on what actually matters most to you.

Step 1: Know Your Core Values

When I coach women through career transitions, we always begin with their top three core values.
Yours might be:

• Health

• Peace

• A slower, simpler lifestyle

• Flexibility

• Time with your kids

• Community and connection

Knowing these values helps guide all life decisions—not just career ones.

Step 2: Make a Short List of Job Must-Haves

Once you're clear on your values, make a SHORT list (3–5 features MAX) of what you're really looking for in a role.

Here a...

Financial Health for Women in Healthcare: The Missing Piece

Did you know financial health is part of holistic health?

Holistic means whole. Whole-person wellness.
And guess what? That includes your money.

As women in healthcare, we are trained for so many things:
🩺 Managing life-threatening emergencies
⏰ Juggling back-to-back 12-hour shifts
😮‍💨 Pushing through exhaustion to care for everyone else

But when it comes to financial health?
We’re taught nothing.

Why So Many Women in Healthcare Struggle With Money

This lack of financial education keeps so many smart, capable, compassionate women stuck in cycles of:

• Avoiding bank statements

• Feeling ashamed or overwhelmed

• Taking on more shifts or degrees, hoping more income = less stress

But here's the truth:
You can’t outwork poor money habits.
Just like you can’t fix burnout with caffeine.

Fina...

Real Self-Care for Burned Out Women in Healthcare

Want to know the biggest life hack?
(Leaning in like I’m about to tell you a secret…)

Real self-care isn’t face masks or bubble baths.
It’s healing your nervous system.
It’s learning to prioritize your own health—before your job, your patients, your charts, your to-do list.

Don’t get me wrong. Bubble baths and lavender candles? Lovely. But they’re surface-level if your nervous system is stuck in fight-or-flight. If your body is running on survival mode, no amount of scented anything will fix the core issue.

What actually helps?

• Breathwork

• Meditation

• Boundaries (real ones!)

• Intentionally slowing down

The Game-Changer I Wish I’d Known Sooner

I used to think exhaustion was just part of the job.
But here’s the truth:
Chronic exhaustion is your nervous system screaming for help.

It’s not a bad...

Coaching for Burned Out Women in Healthcare: Break the Cycle

"I’ve coached over 100 nurses in my life."
And if there's one thing I know for sure?
Women in healthcare are experts at pushing through.

We’re used to figuring things out on our own.
We take the extra shifts, ignore the exhaustion, and convince ourselves that if we just keep hustling a little longer, something will give.

Sometimes that hustle looks like switching jobs.
Sometimes it’s chasing another degree.
Sometimes it's just grinding harder, hoping something will finally click.

But the truth?
We’re not fixing the problem. We’re just running in circles.
More drained. More resentful. More stuck than ever.

Coaching Isn’t Advice. It’s a Game Plan for Real Change.

That’s where coaching comes in.
Not as another thing to “do,” but as a strategy to actually transform how you show up in your life.
