🎙️ Episode 2: Shift Happens – The Truth About Work-Life Balance in Nursing

In this episode of Care That Never Quits, Shannon gets real about something every nurse has felt but few talk about enough—work-life (im)balance in nursing. Titled Shift Happens, this warm and witty conversation shines a light on what it’s like to give your all at the bedside and still feel like you’re running on empty at home.

Whether you’re an RN, LPN, HCA, or part of the growing travel nursing community, this episode speaks to the heart of nurse burnout. Shannon explores the mental load of long shifts, the guilt of saying no, and the deep need for true nursing support. You’ll hear why rest isn’t a luxury—it’s a necessity—and how hobbies, boundaries, and the right team can help you rediscover your joy.

We also talk about what real career growth in nursing looks like, and how Goodwill Staffing helps healthcare professionals find flexibility, fresh starts, and roles that align with their lives—not just their licenses.

If you’ve been wondering whether it’s possible to thrive, not just survive, in this career—this episode is your sign.

Listen now and learn how to take care of your patients without forgetting to take care of yourself.
