Ever caught yourself thinking, "I shouldn't feel this way"? Join me, Jenny Lytle RN, as I unpack the judgmental nature of our emotions in this week's episode of The Nurses' Breakroom. Drawing from my own life and professional experience, I'll shed light on why all feelings—whether joy, guilt, or stress—are valid. This heartfelt discussion underscores the importance of acknowledging our emotions without comparison, especially when life's pressures, like work-life balance and financial stress, seem overwhelming. Learn practical tips to weave gratitude into even your busiest moments and discover how appreciating both big and small joys can bolster your emotional well-being.
In the second part of the episode, we explore the lies we tell ourselves and the hidden struggles of those around us. From friends and family to coworkers, everyone is facing their own battles, often unnoticed. I'll encourage you to reflect on these struggles and share your experiences. Plus, take advantage of our new feature that lets you send me a text message directly, fostering a deeper connection within our community. This week's episode is all about building a supportive space where we validate each other's feelings and navigate the ups and downs of emotional health together.
