I think I know where I wanna be post-graduation?! 🙂🙂🙂🗽⁣ ⁣ Thanks for exploring with me @kevinpitt93!
Instagram vs Reality 😌 #tbt Every picture I've posted has been edited and sometimes with 2 apps! Editing pictures is a creative outlet of mine but I also do it because it makes for a prettier timeline right? We only post what we want to and it's usually the best part of our lives ~ achieving goals, traveling, going out etc. . This isn't the reality of everyday life and can lead to unrealistic expectations for our happiness. No one is happy all the time and no one looks good all the time. So we shouldn't make it seem that way...but way easier said than done. Working part-time, going to grad school part-time, and trying to stay close with friends is not glamorous at all. Will try to be more authentic with what I share on here and on my blog; I encourage you to as well! Find the beauty in your struggle 🦋 Full disclosure: I never edit/change my body except to whiten teeth (you're welcome 😆)
Will miss walking up to these doors every morning to take care of some of the bravest kids I’ve known. They are graciously fighting battles most of us never will in our lifetime.⁣ ⁣ Loved everyone I met on the neuro onc/solid tumor team. I will take the lessons learned here with me for the rest of my career and might be back one day 😉🧬🧠 #nursesofIG #nursesofinstagram #nurselife
Every time I see this sleepy babe I smile 🌙👶🏽💠⭐️ Trying to appreciate all the little things that make me happy!⁣⁣ #nursesofIG #nurselife #nightnurse
“Well behaved women seldom make history” -Laurel Thatcher Ulrich. Sometimes you have to put your hair up and be disruptive. 💁🏽‍♀️⁣ ⁣ Don’t be afraid to go against what everyone else is doing or saying if you know in your heart you’re doing what’s right! ⁣ ⁣ This includes speaking up if acting on behalf of your patient as the bedside nurse or NP! We are the ultimate patient advocates and should always express our concerns regardless of who pushes back. ⁣ ⁣ Stay strong in your convictions no matter who is cheering you on or who thinks you’re ‘’misbehaving’. 📣 #nursesofIG #nursesofinstagram #nurselife #latinarn
What they do here keeps me in awe every second of the day. I’ve only had a few clinical days but already so overwhelmed. .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ However I’m lucky to have a great preceptor and team to learn and grow from. The teamwork at St. Jude is unreal and truly inspiring. .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I’ve already seen several providers cry, which to me is a sign of strength...if you put your heart into this type of work it’s impossible not to feel and show your emotions. So I’m gonna keep on pushing myself to learn more and not be afraid to put my heart on my sleeve. ♥️ #nursesofIG #nursesofinstagram #nurselife #latinarn
