Jacqui's Story - nurse entrepreneur and founder of Heart Place Hospital for Carers.

Real Nurse Stories

In this episode, I interview Nurse Jacqui as she is affectionately known by the clients that she works with. Jacqui is a passionate nurse, a confidence coach, champion of carers and a BeYOUtiful Mentor. Jacqui shares her journey into why she became a nurse and her journey into entrepreneurship as the founder of Heartplace and BeYOUtiful mentor Jacqui candidly shares her experience whilst working as a nurse, of compassion fatigue and burnout as a result of a mindset of "work hard then rest". Jacqui recognised that she was not filling her self care compassion cup along the way until it was completely empty. Jacqui shares her insights into her own self-awareness and how her perfectionism, people-pleasing and overworking also didn't serve her self-compassion. Jacqui gives some great practical words of wisdom in her interview about how to find a little space for your self-compassion because nurses need nurturing too.
