"In the Nurse coaching certificate course, we definitely learned about mindfulness. And you know, that sounds maybe trivial to somebody who's not familiar with Nurse coaching.

Together We Can Stop Shame and Blame in Nursing-Kristy Meyer RN, BSN, NC-BC Highlights “I feel like self-care is often discussed in a way like, well, you're burned out, it’s because you're not doing self-care, or you're burned out, that means you're not resilient.
