EP 79: Burnout, Coaching, and Glimmers: What Nurses Need Right Now
Burnout is still very real in healthcare, and many nurses are carrying trauma from the pandemic — whether they realize it or not.
In this episode, I sit down with Keith Carlson, nurse career coach and host of The Nurse Keith Show, to talk about how burnout shows up today, how to begin healing, and what support looks like — whether through coaching, therapy, or small moments of joy.
Keith shares his personal experience with burnout and how his late wife helped him take the first step toward change. We also talk about how to assess what’s within your control, when it’s okay to walk away, and how something as simple as a “glimmer list” can help you reconnect to what matters.
Tune in for honest insight, practical strategies, and the reminder that healing is possible — one step at a time.
