Highlights

EEEEEEE! I am so excited to share this episode with you, because it includes the voices of many inspiring, wise and wonderful Nurses and Nurse Coaches from all over the country.

From Alaska to Florida, to Massachusetts to California... Nurses were represented from all over the country and the vibes were high!

There was SO much positive energy throughout every second and we were treated like the queens and kings we are, with nutritious, scrumptious healing meals, energetic and knowledgeable speakers and were privy to so many heart opening experiences throughout each day!

It was an experience that is still humming in my heart and soul.

“…you need space in order for energy to be exchanged and to hear what we're saying, and hear what the other person said. Historically, I've wanted to fill that space really.

So, it's still practice for me as well. I still have to work on it. But just trying to lean into that. And, allow that space to exist so people get the benefit of hearing themselves talk too.” ~Lindsay Frey MA, BSN, RN, HWNC-BC, HNB-BC, CDCES

Ah Ha Moments

• There is so much power in listening to a person’s story, especially when we quiet our own agendas
• We’ve come leaps and bounds in talking about self-care in Nursing schools, and yet, we still have a ways to go in implementing self-care into daily Nursing life
• Listen deeply to yourself and your needs and desires- listening may take you across the country, or even closer to yourself
• There is vulnerability in silence. Allowing space for whatever will come instead of trying to fill it
• Nurse Coaching can be used in all parts of Nursing practice, from Nurse to Nurse to partnering with patients using insulin pumps. There are no limitations to it.

Ah Ha Moments

“I am a different person because of what I went through, and I want to preach to other people not to take their health for granted. And not to live on autopilot. Because this life is just too short.” ~Nicole Monteserrato BSN, RN, NC-BC

• Nursing the Nurse. Who to better serve Nurses, than fellow Nurses?
• Living on autopilot is not serving you. Take a chance for you!
• Feel the fear and do it anyway! Take a chance and do something you never thought you’d do!
• Create programs, courses, gatherings, meet ups, and other events that make you feel excited and elevate your vibrations
• Share YOU with the world!
• Nurses are creating safe spaces for people to learn, grow, connect, feel authentic and brave

"Nurses are interested. Nurses want to use this medicine. They want to explore this medicine. They want to understand this medicine. And inevitably, they want to share this medicine. Through our experience, we, minute for minute, spend more time with vulnerable people— not just vulnerable people, but vulnerable people in their most vulnerable times— than nearly any other profession." ~Chandra "CeeCee" Campanelli, RN, HN-BC, HWNC-BC

Ah-Ha Moments

• Nurse Coaching and Holistic Nursing allows us to be fully present and open for whole-person wellness and Nursing
• Layering on our foundation of Nursing we can do anything that calls to us! Explore all our options before giving up on Nursing
• Use your voice as an advocate to speak up for things you believe in. Nurses are the most trusted profession on the planet, use that as your power to speak up! Nurses also can explain complex topics simply, for the layperson to understand
• Psilocybin continues to be a criminalized plant medicine, yet there is slow movement to potentially de-criminalize it in some states
• Just as Nurses need to be aware of and understand the implications of cannabis, so too should we be aware of the implications of psylocibin
• There seems to be a psycho emotional component of using psylocibin, that can be mitigated by good facilitators, and Nurses, if they choose can be those facilitators
• Some benefits of psylocibin are, neurogenesis with dendritic connections, reduced symptoms for Parkinson’s, post concussive syndrome, OCD, improved outcomes in terms of anxiety, depression, addiction

“As Nurse coaches, we often in coaching sessions, or when we're talking to people, we often really want to see those big aha moments, or those clients come up with these phenomenal, smart goals.

And sometimes, especially when we're Nurse Coach students, we think that maybe a session wasn't overly productive if we didn't have those.

But it really isn't about those grandiose, big aha moments, it really is about those subtle shifts that we often are a part of, but we don't realize that we're a part of when we're working with our clients.” ~ Judy Ratliff MA, RN, NC-BC

Ah-Ha Moments

• It’s OK to not have all the answers all the time. Listen for the whispers and follow them. Trust.
• Bring joy into your world in whatever way you can- even being a clown!
• Facing yourself is some of the most important, impactful work you will do
• Patients are number one, yes, and so are you!
• It’s imperative that Nurses understand the basics of cannabis and become informed on this topic and how it affects our culture, our patients and the practice of Nursing
• Death and dying are integral pieces of life and living

Highlights

"I think everybody has their own intuitive gifts. And it's something that you get to just connect with and then practice. I think everybody has their own gifts and their own... call it body wisdom, call it intuition, these different ways, just like having a sense about something beyond what you can see with the eye." ~Dr. Caitlin Jarvis DNP, ARNP, FNP-BC

Ah-has

• We all have innate intuition, and can develop these skills by leaning in to them
• You can combine Integrative Nurse Coaching with your passions in anything
• Tune in to what you need. Take a break. Take a week off. Do what you need to do for yourself
• Medical intuitive skills can be learned
• Are you over-giving? How can you turn this off, and give equally to yourself and your patients and family?

"I noticed, a lot of the times, I would check out after work. I would find myself after a hard day, pulling over to get some beer or wine, coming home, having dinner and then just wanting to shut everything out and be alone with my wine while my husband would read to my son and put him to bed...

Now that I'm more present, I've noticed a shift within our family. And I think my son has noticed how much better it feels for everybody without alcohol in the house." ~Devon Donkin BSN, RN, NC-BC, Certified Gray Area Drinking Coach

Ah-Ha Moments

• Working 12-hour shifts is taxing. It’s OK to search for something outside of bedside Nursing to support you and your family life
• Shifts in wellbeing don’t have to be or feel dramatic, instead they can be simple and easy
• Alcohol has negative impacts on health, like hormone disruption, blood pressure, energy levels, gut microbiome, brain shrinkage, relationships, and sleep. It’s linked to certain cancers, high blood pressures and mental health and other health issues
• Alcohol is a highly addictive substance, so it is important to balance our body chemistry through lifestyle choices like mindfulness, better sleep, balancing blood sugars
• Gray Area Drinkers consume a handful of drinks per week and are doing this regularly. They are moderating their drinking regularly and it may be consuming to monitor and manage this behavior
• It’s important to support the nervous system and body’s biochemistry when one begins to abstain from alcohol
• Sleep, exercise, sunlight, breathwork, eating nourishing foods, drinking enough water will help support your nervous system and body’s biochemistry
• Creating new habits and rituals to support your journey into sobriety are, tell people about it, get into nature, try movement, be curious, be and feel into your body, hug someone, hug your pet, notice when you feel good, embracing feel good moments

65: Feeding Compassion: Exploring Intuitive Eating in Nursing-Tiffany North, BSN, RN, INC, Certified Intuitive Eating Professional Highlights

"Intuitive eating is really about letting go of shoulds around food, letting go of this food is good, this food is bad, and instead, looking at food from a body attunement lens. So how does this food feel for me in my body? How does eating in this way feel for me and my body? What are the underlying needs associated with various body signals?" ~Tiffany North, BSN, RN, INC, Certified Intuitive Eating Professional

Ah-Ha Moments

• Nurses can do sooo many things with their careers!
• Nursing careers can help us shift into different directions as we learn more about ourselves, and sometimes we don’t know exactly where it will lead us and we still trust
• Learning to slow down can feel very uncomfortable
• Food and relationships with food can be a very common area of focus for every human being
• People’s relationship with food
• Intuitive eating is letting go of ‘shoulds’ around food, or, this food is good, or this food is bad.
• Nurses are layering in all types of education, experiences and creativity into our Nursing practice in safe and appropriate ways
• Our society is pressurized with ‘should’s about food, body image and relationships with food and our bodies
• Intuitive eating helps us look internally to see how past experiences affect us today and help us unravel and reconnect to ourselves and
• It can be very powerful to ask your body what you’re experiencing. What sensations are you experiencing? When we can listen and be curious with compassion and kindness, we can draw on our own wisdom
• Follow the whisper, honor that yes, and you are the person who is charge of your own satisfaction and honoring yourself
