My story
Welcome to my corner of the nursing world! I'm Megan, a dedicated nurse with nearly five years of experience, specializing in intensive care. My journey began as a new grad in the ICU, balancing the demands of nursing school with the joys and challenges of motherhood to four incredible children. Nursing wasn't just a career for me—it was a passion fueled by the desire to provide the best care possible for my patients.
In August 2019, I embarked on my nursing journey with a hunger for knowledge and a determination to excel. Little did I know that just a few months later, the world would be plunged into the chaos of the COVID-19 pandemic. As a new nurse in the ICU, I found myself thrust into the frontline, facing unprecedented challenges and heart-wrenching situations on a daily basis. Survival became the name of the game, and there was no room for hand-holding—it was sink or swim.
Now, as we emerge from the shadows of the pandemic, I'm entering my fifth year as an ICU nurse with a renewed sense of purpose. My experiences have inspired me to hit the reset button and rekindle my passion for nursing. That's why I've created this site—to provide myself and fellow nurses with a platform for continuous learning, professional growth, and finding balance in the chaos of both work and home life.
Here, you'll find a wealth of resources, from nursing knowledge refreshers to tips for maintaining a healthy work-life balance. Whether you're a seasoned nurse looking to sharpen your skills or a newbie navigating the complexities of critical care, consider this site your go-to destination for inspiration, education, and support.
Join me on this journey as we navigate the ever-evolving world of nursing together. Here's to growth, resilience, and finding joy in the journey!
