I know this sounds backwards, but doing less is wh I know this sounds backwards, but doing less is what finally worked for me as a nurse 👏🏻

Comment NURSE FREEBIE below, and I’ll send you my top health + fitness tips for nurses. ✨

I stopped trying to force 6 workouts a week.

I stopped doing cardio after every strength session.

And I stopped under-eating.

Instead, I built my routine around my 12-hour shifts:

✨ Lifting on my days off

✨ Focusing on a daily step goal instead of endless cardio

✨ Eating enough protein and carbs to fuel both work and my workouts

I had more energy, my workouts improved, and I finally started seeing results that were sustainable, without feeling like fitness had to take over my life. 💪🏼

After a 12 hour shift, these 3 things are non-nego After a 12 hour shift, these 3 things are non-negotiable for me✨

It’s so easy to come home and just snack over the sink, scroll on your phone, and crash. But your nervous system has been in overdrive all day and it needs more than that to actually recover

If you’re a nurse running on fumes, this is your sign to protect your peace after work💛

If you’re new here, hi! I’m Becky 👋🏼 I’ve been a nurse for over 15 years and am currently into school to become a PMHNP. I also work as an online health and fitness coach. I help busy healthcare women build realistic nutrition and fitness habits around their busy schedules so they can feel stronger, healthier, and more confident, without spending hours in the gym.

If that sounds like what you need, DM me STRONG and let’s chat. 🤍

People always ask me, “How do you have time to mea People always ask me, “How do you have time to meal prep as a nurse, NP student, and fitness coach?” 🫠

The truth? I don’t spend 4 hours in the kitchen on my days off.

I keep it as simple as possible.

✨ I cook protein in bulk (usually in the crockpot).

✨ I make enough for 2–3 days.

✨ I buy shortcuts like microwave rice, frozen veggies, and pre-cut fruit.

✨ Then I mix and match everything throughout the week.

Meal prep doesn’t have to be complicated to be effective.

The more you prepare ahead of time, the easier it is to stay consistent during busy work weeks. That’s exactly what I teach my clients too. When we overcomplicate things, meal prep becomes overwhelming… and it usually doesn’t happen.

I actually put together a Nurse Freebie to help make healthy eating around 12-hour shifts a whole lot easier. 🤍

Somehow we’ve convinced ourselves this is just par Somehow we’ve convinced ourselves this is just part of being a nurse… but it shouldn’t be 😭

The culture in healthcare makes it really easy to put ourselves last. After a while, it starts to feel normal…. 

But your health matters too ‼️

🤍 You can eat before your shift and keep protein-packed snacks with you.

🤍 You can say no to overtime when you need rest.

🤍 You can take time to recover after a long shift.

🤍 You can find healthy ways to decompress, whether that’s journaling, walking, strength training, running, or even just sitting in silence for a few minutes.

Taking care of yourself isn’t selfish. It’s what allows you to keep showing up for everyone else.

This is exactly what I help my 1:1 coaching clients with 💛 DM me “STRONG” for more information.

Grateful for a weekend off with my family celebrat Grateful for a weekend off with my family celebrating the 4th ❤️🤍💙

The last few weeks have been incredibly hard, stressful, and emotional, and I really needed this time to slow down, recharge, and just be present 👏🏻

A few things I had to stop doing before I finally A few things I had to stop doing before I finally started seeing progress…

As a nurse working 12-hour shifts, I spent years thinking I just needed more discipline.

More workouts.

More cardio.

Less food.

None of that was the problem.

Here’s what actually changed things for me:

✨ I stopped skipping meals at work.

I’d get so busy that I’d barely eat all shift, then come home absolutely starving. Now I always keep something easy with me—a protein bar, yogurt, or a shake—so I’m not playing catch-up at the end of the day.

✨ I stopped trying to “fix” one off day.

A break room lunch or pizza on a busy shift isn’t what keeps you from reaching your goals. What matters is getting back to your normal routine at the next meal.

✨ I stopped waiting for life to slow down.

Working in healthcare, there’s always another busy week, another extra shift, another reason to wait. I realized I had to build habits that fit my schedule instead of waiting for the perfect one.

That’s honestly when everything changed.

If you’re a nurse who’s trying to get healthier while working long shifts, know that you don’t have to be perfect. You just need a plan that works with your life, not against it. 🤍
