[PEP TALK] For when you are questioning why you became a nurse in the first place

<p>This episode is for you if you have ever asked yourself questions like: <br/>-Why did I even become a nurse? <br/>-Why did I spend all of this money and effort on something I HATE?<br/>-I was told I would love this career, what is wrong with me? <br/>-Is the problem the profession of nursing all together? <br/><br/>HOT TAKE: These questions are normal. I have asked myself these things a million times. That does not mean you have to just &quot;suck it up.&quot; Being miserable every day is NOT normal, and not healthy. So let&apos;s chat about some strategies to figure out what is causing you to ask these questions and what we can change. Is it mindset, a toxic environment, losing sight of your why? There are a million variables, but the first step is self-reflection and having the hard conversations. <br/><br/>Check out @wholelifenurse on IG for career advice<br/><br/>Check out episode 39 for the questions to ask yourself after every shift<br/><br/>Follow along and join the Nursing Co-op community on Instagram @ashley_nursingcoop and on Facebook in The Nursing Co-op Huddle!
