Hey Nurse friend, Today, I’m sharing a conversation I had with Lacey Conner on her podcast: Image Bearers. We have a casual conversation about nurse burnout and identity. We talk about how burnout show up in our lives, differently and the way God led us both to using our skills and expertise in nursing in our current season of life. Lacey is a mom to 4, RN and host of the podcast, Image Bearers. She is using the podcast to glorify God by sitting down with people and their story. Because we are made in the image of God, we have bestowed worth and dignity. She is wanting people to feel like they are seen, heard, and loved. To love another person is to see the face of God and I believe this to be true. Wherever you are in your nursing journey, I believe this conversation with shed light on how you can live out your identity with less stress. Shalom Shalom,

Xx, Shan

Welcome back to Beat Nurse Burnout.

In Part 1, we heard Ondrea Lynn’s powerful testimony of trauma, spiritual searching, and finding true freedom in Jesus. Today, we’re continuing the conversation — and we’re going to talk about something deeply relevant to so many nurses:

The connection between burnout, stress, and our bodies.

If you’re a nurse who has: -Gained weight during years of high stress or night shifts -Used food, alcohol, or sugar to cope after hard days -Felt disconnected from your body after pregnancy or trauma -Or wondered why willpower alone never seems to work This episode is for you.

As nurses, we know this intellectually: Chronic stress → cortisol dysregulation → emotional eating → metabolic changes. But knowing the science doesn’t always heal the pattern.

What Ondrea discovered — and what she now teaches — is that lasting physical transformation must begin spiritually. When the nervous system calms, identity is restored, and coping shifts from survival to surrender, the body finally feels safe enough to change.

Ondrea is a speaker and author of the book, ‘The Christian Women’s Weight Loss Victory Plan (How to Defeat the Enemy and Transform Your Body).’ Ondrea has helped thousands of women reach their personal health and wellness goals and improve their physical and nutritional health, as well as their emotional and spiritual well-being. She is a graduate of the Institute of Integrated Nutrition, affiliated with the Teachers College at Columbia University, some of her certifications include, NASM fitness trainer, behavioral change specialist, and self-sabotage coach. Her efforts in health & wellness have been featured in an article and on the cover of Woman’s World Magazine. She appeared as a personal trainer on Lifetime television’s Mission Makeover. Her ‘Christian Women’s Weight Loss’ podcast is currently ranking top 3% globally. Ondrea is passionate about helping Christian women lose weight and gain health so they can rise up in the Kingdom and take action on the assignment God has called them to do.

Shalom Shalom,

Xx, Shan

Hey friend, Today we're talking about something I know you're feeling — that bone-deep exhaustion that doesn't go away with a day off or even a vacation.

If you're a nurse or caregiver who keeps showing up, keeps performing, keeps pushing through... but inside you're running on empty? This episode is for you.

We're diving into three types of fatigue that are slowly draining your body, overwhelming your mind, and leading you straight toward burnout: Compassion Fatigue, Decision Fatigue, and High-Functioning Fatigue.

And here's what I want you to know upfront: Fatigue is a warning sign. It's your body's check engine light. And today, we're going to talk about what's really happening physiologically, why you can't just push through it, and most importantly — how to recover with faith-based, holistic practices that actually work.

So grab your coffee, settle in, and let's get real about what's going on in your body. Shalom Shalom,

Xx, Shan
