If you're still stuck thinking your health goals are just about the scale or your pant size… this episode is your friendly little kick in the ass. Today I'm breaking down a mindset shift I'll die on a hill for: your health is your wealth. Not "wealth" like you need to be rich. Wealth like: energy, confidence, freedom, options, and a life that doesn't feel like you're surviving between 12-hour shifts. Because here's the truth: the version of you who's barely sleeping, skipping meals, living on

How the hell do healthcare workers see what they see… and not go home and eat/drink themselves into a coma? So let's talk about it. Because if you've ever gotten off a brutal shift, felt completely fried, and found yourself face-first in the pantry like a raccoon with scrubs on… you're not broken. You're human.

I recorded this episode from my hotel bed during that weird in-between week when Christmas is over, the new year hasn't quite started, and everyone feels the pressure to "get it together." Instead of a fluffy New Year's pep talk, I wanted to have an honest conversation about goal setting — especially for healthcare workers — and why most goals fall apart so fast. In this episode, I talk about why New Year's resolutions fail, why vague goals like lose weight or have more energy don't work, and the

This episode is basically you riding home with me while I unpack the last nine years of my life. Healthcare, burnout, travel contracts, starting a business, and all the "what the hell am I doing?" moments in between. I originally thought I'd do a cute end-of-year recap… and then realized this year wasn't about one year at all. It was about closing a nine-year cycle that started back in 2017 when I graduated x-ray school and thought I had life figured out (spoiler: I did not). We talk about: Why

In this episode of Shift Happens, I'm sharing a big life update — yes, I quit my full-time hospital job — but I'm talking about it for one reason: to show you what's possible when you stop telling yourself you "don't have time." Because for months, I said the same thing you probably say every day: I'm exhausted. I don't have the hours. My schedule is the problem. But when I finally got honest, I realized I was the problem — and that small shifts create way more freedom than we think. In this

Let's be real.. burnout isn't just mental. It's physical, and your body's been trying to tell you something for a while now.
