Some days I genuinely don’t know how I’m doing it Some days I genuinely don’t know how I’m doing it all… Working 12-hour shifts. Finishing NP school. Running a business. Planning a wedding. Taking care of my dogs, my family, my clients, and somehow still finding time to take care of myself too… Then I remind myself that I’m not doing it perfectly. I’m just doing the best I can with the time and energy I have 👏🏻 Some days that looks like a great workout and perfectly prepped meals. Other days it looks like getting a walk in, hitting my protein goal, and calling it a win. Nursing has taught me a lot over the years, but one of the biggest lessons is how to keep showing up even when life feels full. So if you’re a nurse trying to balance fitness, work, school, relationships, kids, or just life in general, I see you. You don’t have to do it perfectly. You just have to keep showing up.

☀️ Summer meal prep just got a whole lot easier. ☀️ Summer meal prep just got a whole lot easier. This Greek-inspired pasta salad has been on repeat lately and it’s perfect for long shifts when you need something filling, refreshing, and easy to grab on the go. Greek Summer Pasta Salad 🥙 Ingredients: * 1 box protein pasta, cooked and cooled * 2 cups shredded crockpot chicken * 1 cucumber, diced * 1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved * 1/2 red onion, diced * 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese * 1/2 cup balsamic vinaigrette Mix everything together in a large bowl, toss with the dressing, and divide into meal prep containers. Makes 4-5 servings. A few reasons I love it: ✨ High protein. The protein pasta and shredded chicken help keep you full through busy shifts. ✨ It actually tastes better the next day, making it perfect for meal prep. ✨ Takes about 10 minutes to throw together once your chicken is cooked. ✨ No microwave needed. Just grab it from the fridge and head out the door. More recipes coming in this series for my healthcare girlies who want simple, realistic meals that work around long shifts 👏🏻 Save this one for your next prep day 🩷 #summerrecipes #mealprepideas #summerpastasalad #healthyrecipes #nursesofinstagram
Exactly what I did to lose weight while working 12 Exactly what I did to lose weight while working 12-hour shifts 👇🏻 ✨ Stopped trying to be perfect ✨ Focused on eating enough to support my long shifts, workouts, and recovery ✨ Prioritized strength training and walks instead of hours of HIIT ✨ Gave myself grace during the harder weeks instead of throwing in the towel The truth is, I used to think I needed to do more to see results. Eat less. Do more cardio. Never miss a workout. Be “on track” 100% of the time. But as a nurse working 12-hour shifts, that approach just wasn’t sustainable. The biggest changes happened when I started working with my schedule instead of against it. I stopped trying to follow plans designed for people with a typical 9-5 and started focusing on habits I could actually stick with during busy weeks. If you’re a nurse (or anyone working long hours) and feel like your schedule is holding you back, I promise you can still make progress. It might not look like what you see from influencers online, but it absolutely works.

My 12-hour shift essentials ✨ Let’s be honest… ge My 12-hour shift essentials ✨ Let’s be honest… getting through a 12-hour shift takes more than just coffee 😅 These are the things you’ll almost always find in my work bag: ✨ Oath Nutrition electrolytes — because sometimes I get sick of drinking plain water all day. They help add some flavor while replenishing electrolytes during long shifts. 🥣 Overnight oats — my favorite grab-and-go breakfast that actually keeps me full. ☕ Coffee — truly my favorite part of the morning. 🍫 Aloha protein bars — easy to keep at my desk or throw in my bag when I need something quick between meetings or tasks. 💧 Stanley cup — because having a water bottle with a straw and a lid makes it so much easier for me to stay hydrated throughout the day. 🍱 Meal prep — life has been crazy lately, and having meals ready to go keeps me from spending hours in the kitchen during the week. 🍿 Drizzlicious — my current sweet snack obsession. These little things make busy shift days feel a whole lot easier 🤍 What are your long day essentials? #nurselife #nurseessentials #12hourshift #healthcareworker #mealprep
Nurse meal prep doesn’t have to be complicated 🤍 Nurse meal prep doesn’t have to be complicated 🤍 If you’re working back-to-back 12s and trying to have some sort of life outside of work, this series is for you. A few things I swear by: ✨ Use your crockpot. Throw in a protein, set it, and let it do the work while you actually enjoy your day off. ✨ Keep frozen veggies on hand. They’re affordable, easy, and save so much time. No chopping, no waste. ✨ Stop overcomplicating meals. A protein, a carb, and a fruit or veggie is more than enough. You don’t need a Pinterest-worthy meal prep with 47 ingredients. The goal isn’t to spend all day in the kitchen. The goal is to have meals ready that make your busy week easier. And honestly? Meal prep works a lot better when you’re actually excited to eat what you made 👏🏻 I’m kicking off a new meal prep series for nurses, and next week I’m sharing one of my favorite summer pasta salad recipes ☀️ #nurselife #mealprepfornurses #12hourshifts #healthynurse #nursefitness mealprepideas busygirlmealprep nursetok easymealprep
