Hey Reader,

Let’s be real: being a nurse often means being everything to everyone—healer, advocate, superhero, human IV pole… you name it.

But who’s looking out for you?

If you’ve been running on caffeine, charting on autopilot, or wondering when your last real day off was (not counting “staycation” laundry marathons)—you’re not alone. And you don’t have to figure it all out solo.

That’s where a life coach for nurses comes in. 💡

🧠 Why Nurses Need Life Coaching (More Than Ever)

🔥 Burnout is sky-high.​
According to the American Nurses Foundation (2023), 56% of nurses report feeling burned out, and nearly 1 in 4 are considering leaving the profession altogether. That’s not just a stat—that’s a silent crisis.

💬 Mental health matters.​
A study in JAMA Health Forum (2022) found that nurses are significantly more likely to experience depression, anxiety, and emotional exhaustion compared to the general population.

🛑 But here’s the good news: support works.​
Coaching has been shown to reduce burnout, increase job satisfaction, and help healthcare professionals rediscover purpose and passion in their work (International Journal of Evidence-Based Healthcare, 2020).

🩺 5 Ways a Life Coach Can Support Nurses Like You

1. Burnout Recovery + Resilience Building​
We dig deep to identify your unique stressors and help you create boundaries, not burnout.

2. Career Clarity & Confidence​
Whether you’re bedside forever or dreaming of something new, coaching helps you map a path that feels right and meets the needs of your life right now.

3. Emotional Support from Someone Who Gets It​
I’m a nurse too. You don’t need to explain what “code brown” means—we speak the same language.

4. Accountability with Compassion​
No judgment—just someone in your corner, helping you take real steps forward (even if they’re baby steps).

5. Space to Prioritize YOU​
This isn’t selfish—it’s necessary. Because when you care for yourself, you show up stronger for everyone else.
