End the Silence - Guest Natasha Burger RN

Natasha Burger is a Registered Nurse in Alberta Canada and has dedicated nearly 30 years of service in the nursing profession.  Her long list of experience and expertise will blow your mind, but it's a reality of many nurses and one of the perks of the profession.  Nursing never is boring and there's endless opportunities to change paths, and Natasha has seen many of them.

Through all of her experience she found herself forced to step away from bedside nursing... forced by her own body.  Her body that demanded she slow down.  That she take time to process, to feel, and to heal. 

We walk through not only what burnout in nursing has looked and felt like for Natasha but the systemic let downs that contribute to the personal sense of failure and inadequacy that happens often when nurses are struggling, and some that are just barely surviving.

We talk about the burden that nursing carries for us as women and mothers and the never ending struggle to achieve this ever elusive balance we're all seeking  in life and how money and time become the weights that tip the scales of that balance.

You simply must listen until the very end as the conversation becomes very raw and exposes one of the darkest risks to burnout and the resulting depression.  Warning this could be triggering for some of you.  But the message is that you are not alone.  We are here.  We are sharing our stories to END THE SILENCE.

The wisdom and strength Natasha displays is remarkable and inspiring and her courage to share her truth is a beacon of light for all nurses everywhere.
