About Holistic Moms | Health and Wellness Tips, Christian mom, Intentional Living, Stress Management, Accountability

Are you an exhausted nurse running on empty? Do you feel irritable after every shift, emotionally numb, or like you're just surviving instead of thriving? Maybe you're a night shift nurse who can't sleep, a bedside nurse drowning in documentation, or a healthcare mom who feels like she's failing everyone. You want work-life balance, but it feels impossible. You crave connection with God, quality time with your spouse and kids, and just five minutes of peace—but patience and presence seem out of reach after another exhausting shift. You know you need self-care, but you're so depleted from caring for everyone else that you don't even know where to start. Sound familiar? You might not realize it yet, but you're experiencing nurse burnout—or heading there fast. You're in the right place, and you're not alone. I'm Shan Wright—wife, mom to 4, Registered Nurse, and Holistic Nurse Coach. I've been where you are: burnt out at bedside, struggling with postpartum anxiety, feeling disconnected from God and my family, and wondering if this exhausting cycle was just "how it is" for nurses. After burning out in bedside nursing, I realized I couldn't pour from an empty cup. I sought the Prince of PEACE and charted my way to whole-body wellness through simple, faith-based holistic practices—and I'm excited to share them with you! On this podcast, you'll discover how to: Overcome high-functioning fatigue and stop just surviving shift to shift Set boundaries without guilt at work and home Manage nursing stress so work doesn't hijack your home life Process emotions through faith-based practices instead of suppressing them Create sustainable self-care that doesn't feel like another task Build emotional resilience to handle difficult patients and workplace drama Find work-life balance that actually works for 12-hour shifts Reclaim your energy, peace, and purpose beyond the badge Experience joy by embracing your identity in Christ—not just as a nurse Let's get our heads out of the medication cart and never-ending charting and courageously navigate this nursing journey TOGETHER!
