History and experience show that nurses raising their voices shape health policy. From advancing the profession to advocating for patients, nurses are well-positioned to articulate and champion the changes and legislation needed for better health, care, and access. That's the idea behind the American Nurses Association’s (ANA) annual ‘Hill Day,’ which focuses on advocating in the United States Congress for the more than 5 million nurses across the U.S. and the people and communities they care for. In this episode, we’re on the ground in Washington, DC meeting with nurses who are showing up and speaking up at ANA Hill Day 2024, and exploring engagement and advocacy – at the local, state and national levels – in the nursing profession. Tune in to hear from ANA President Jennifer Mensik Kennedy PhD, RN, NEA-BC  and ANA VP for Policy and Government Affairs Tim Nanof what advocating for families, communities and the workforce sounds like and why more than 500 nurses came to the U.S. Capitol to do so.    Find this episode’s resources at www.seeyounowpodcast.com and to find out more information on the podcast bundles visit ANA’s Innovation Website at www.nursingworld.org/innovation.

In this episode of The TRU Leader Podcast, Tracy and Michelle delves into the national crisis of burnout and mental health issues in the workplace, citing a 2022 US Surgeon General report and a Microsoft survey showing high levels of burnout among managers. The pandemic has shifted expectations around work-life balance, with workers seeking more support to avoid overwork. The discussion highlights the VUCA (volatile, uncertain, complex, ambiguous) environment’s demands on staff and the need for empathetic leadership. Traditional leadership norms often involve overworking and sacrificing personal time, which can lead to burnout. Personal anecdotes illustrate the detrimental effects of such norms, emphasizing the need for new leadership practices that prioritize well-being. The podcast advocates for changing leadership norms to prevent burnout by fostering healthy work cultures and effective priority management. Leaders are encouraged to balance professional and personal lives, leveraging the tension between opposing forces like activity and rest. It stresses the importance of shifting limiting beliefs to more empowering ones and redefining success to include balance and fulfillment. Habit formation, supported by tools like fitness trackers and morning routines, is suggested to make these new norms sustainable. Tracy and Michelle invite listeners to join their FREE webinar “From Stress to Success, The Formula for Leaders to Excel Professionally and Personally” to help leaders adopt these new norms.
