Summary
Make yourself heard! Today your hosts are joined by Nurse with a sign (aka Kaylee) and they get to know the incredible healthcare worker behind the popular Instagram account. She shares her background in nursing, her plans for the future, and explains that most of the signs on her page are things she wished she focused on when she first started out in nursing. She talks about how she got started with the signs, what her first sign was, and discusses the pressure of posting and keeping certain things private. She opens up about recent feelings of burnout, and how she first noticed these feelings. She also shares her experience with sexual assault early in her career, and how she refuses to sit on her hands when she can speak up about injustices. Lastly, she teases what signs we may see on her page next.
