Nurses, you don’t always have to be doing MORE to Nurses, you don’t always have to be doing MORE to be doing enough 🤍

I feel like we live in a society where we’re constantly being told to do more, work harder, and stay busy. And I think this is especially true in healthcare!

Pick up the extra shift. Get another certification. Work overtime. Keep pushing yourself.

And while there’s nothing wrong with wanting to grow in your career, it’s also OKAY to slow down.

It’s okay to say no to the extra shift, take a rest day, prioritize your health, fitness, and nutrition, or simply enjoy your day off without feeling guilty.

Because there’s so much more to life than working and constantly checking things off your to-do list.

You deserve to have the energy to actually ENJOY your life outside of work, too 🤍

What’s one thing you’re making more time for OUTSIDE of work lately? 👇🏻

SAVE this one for your next stretch of 12-hour shi SAVE this one for your next stretch of 12-hour shifts! ✨

Welcome back to episode 5 of romanticizing fall as a nurse! 🤎

After working a 12-hour shift, the LAST thing I want to do is come home and cook dinner, which is why I love having meals like this ready to go for the workweek!

This high-protein crockpot chili is SO easy to make, packed with protein and fiber, and makes enough for leftovers throughout the week 🙌🏼

HIGH-PROTEIN CROCKPOT BEEF CHILI

Ingredients (8 servings):

- 32 oz fire-roasted tomatoes
- 1 can (15 oz) corn, drained
- 1 can (15 oz) black beans, drained
- 1 cup diced white onion
- 1 package lean ground beef (or ground turkey!)
- 16 oz chunky salsa
- 1 cup water
- Cumin
- Chili powder
- Garlic powder
- Crushed red pepper
- Cayenne pepper
- Sriracha

Directions:

1. Brown your ground beef on the stovetop and drain any excess fat.
2. Add the beef and all remaining ingredients to your crockpot.
3. Season to taste! I love a little extra spice.
4. Cook on HIGH for 4 hours or LOW for 8 hours.
5. Top with avocado or plain Greek yogurt for some extra protein!

And just like that, dinner is taken care of for the next few days! 👏🏼

One thing I’ve learned from working 12-hour shifts is that making healthy eating easier on yourself makes SUCH a difference. You don’t need to spend hours in the kitchen to have nutritious meals ready to go.

SAVE this recipe for your next stretch of 12 hour shifts 👩🏻‍⚕️

If you told me 10 years ago that I’d be going back If you told me 10 years ago that I’d be going back to school at 35, getting married at 37, and still not have kids yet, I probably wouldn’t have believed you.

I think we all grow up with this idea of how our lives are supposed to look by a certain age. And when things don’t happen on that timeline, it’s easy to feel like you’re falling behind.

But the older I get, the more I realize there really is no timeline.

I’m 37, finishing up my master’s degree, recently married, and still have so many things I want to experience and accomplish.

Life might not look exactly how I pictured it in my 20s, but that doesn’t mean I’m behind.

Just a little reminder that you’re not late to accomplish your goals 🤍

One of the BEST things I ever did for my fitness j One of the BEST things I ever did for my fitness journey was stop forcing myself to work before or after my 12-hour shifts 👏🏼

For YEARS, I thought being consistent meant getting to the gym no matter how exhausted I was. Even after working a long shift, I would feel guilty if I skipped a workout.

But eventually I realized that I was making fitness so much harder than it needed to be.

Instead of trying to squeeze workouts into days when I was already exhausted, I started planning my training around my work schedule 🗓️

I lift on my days off, prioritize getting my steps in, and let my workdays be my rest days.

And guess what? I’ve made MORE progress doing less because I’m actually able to show up, train hard, and recover properly 💪🏼

If you’re a nurse or work long shifts, PLEASE stop thinking you need to do it all to see results.

You don’t need to work out 6 days a week or drag yourself to the gym after a 12-hour shift. 

You need a routine that works for YOUR life and one you can actually stick to 👏🏻👏🏻

Consistency isn’t about doing the most. It’s about doing what you can sustain 🤍

Comment nurse freebie and I’ll send you my guide how to navigate your health and fitness with long nursing shifts

My go-to fall breakfast lately 🍎🍂 If you work 12- My go-to fall breakfast lately 🍎🍂

If you work 12-hour shifts, you know how much easier those early mornings are when you already have breakfast prepped and ready to grab!

I’ve been making overnight oats for YEARS, and this apple pie version might be one of my favorites yet. High in protein, packed with fiber, and tastes like fall in a jar 👏🏻

**APPLE PIE PROTEIN OVERNIGHT OATS**
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1 tsp chia seeds
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 1/3 cup Trader Joe’s Crisp Apple Greek Yogurt (trust me, this makes it!)
- 1/4 cup vanilla protein powder
- 1/2 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
- Cinnamon to taste

Mix everything together, seal, and refrigerate overnight!

**For the apple topping:**
- 1/2 apple, chopped
- Cinnamon
- A little coconut oil

Sauté the apples with cinnamon and coconut oil until soft and caramelized, then add them right on top of your oats!

Such an easy way to get in protein and fiber first thing in the morning, especially when you have a long day ahead of you.

And one less thing to think about when that 5 AM alarm goes off 👏🏻

Save this one for your next meal prep day and tag me if you try it! 🤎
