  2. “I created my entire life through the nursing role/lens to avoid showing up for myself.” Bryanna’s statement hit home for both Antra and Karen. Did it do so for you? Why or why not? Explain.
  3. What self-care strategy that Bryanna referenced resonates with you the most to try? How will you build it into your toolbox of self-care tools? Share your proposed steps. (Extra credit: after 1 week, come back and share your findings and results)!

ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR:

Bryanna (“Bry”) is an RN for 7 years, and a Board Certified Nurse Coach in private practice for 2 years. She spent the first 5 years of her career dodging burnout until she realized she had created her entire life around serving others. Knowing she couldn’t sustain this personally or professionally she recommitted to herself. She got to the root of her self-sacrifice, took action on realistic self-care, and created relationships that were of equal give and take. Now, this is the work she is honored to support other Nurses in through 1:1 individualized coaching and the Braving Wellness breathwork and meditation community.
