⚠️ tw: pregnancy loss
💜 I didn’t fall off. I was surviving.
Over the last year, my real life got a lot louder than the internet — trying to grow our family, walking through loss, then a high-risk pregnancy 🤰🏾 and finally a C-section and newborn life. There wasn’t space to “show up” online and still take care of my body, my mind, and this baby.
🙌🏾 So I chose the thing I tell nurses to choose but rarely give ourselves permission to do: I picked my health, my healing, and my actual life over being “consistent” on social media.
➡️ Now that I’m easing back in, I’m not interested in pretending it was easy or acting like burnout is just part of the job. I want Selfish Nurse Club to be proof that you can be a nurse, a mom, a whole human… and not abandon yourself in the process.
🙋🏾♀️ If any part of this feels a little too familiar, comment CLUB so I know you’re here, and I’ll send this kind of nurse motivation straight to your inbox. 💌
