In this episode of Make It Enuf Podcast, we get real NASTY about the unglamorous, often overlooked side of nursing. We dive into the trials of dating as a nurse, the challenges of mothering on erratic schedules, and the reality of balancing a social life amidst burnout. We share how we prepared for motherhood and still rocked our nursing careers—even when the hours didn’t line up—all delivered with a dose of light-hearted humor and, honestly, Funny AF. We also unpack the stressful, sometimes toxic dynamics that can arise in our nursing world—dealing with workplace bullying, getting fired, being cheated on, and even facing emotional abuse and gaslighting during a brutal 12-hour shift. All while the world calls us cheaters—ironic, right? We drop actionable tips to help dodge caregiver burnout and make smarter career choices. Expect candid, no-BS conversations about what it’s really like to be a nurse—far from the “hero” stereotype—and learn how to navigate these challenges with real-life strategies. Seven Medical Minutes In our signature segment, we tackle the health issues that hit us hard as nurses—hypertension, diabetes, and the toll of those grueling night shifts. We break it all down in a relatable way, offering practical steps to help you care for your own health.
