Beschreibung

In this deeply honest episode, we explore what it means to grieve the old version of yourself — the woman who survived by self-sacrificing, overgiving, staying silent, and carrying burdens that were never hers to hold. Together, we unpack the conditioning many women, especially Black women, have inherited: the pressure to be strong, resilient, and endlessly available while neglecting our own wellbeing, rest, pleasure, and truth. This episode is an invitation to release the versions of yourself built purely for survival. The version that settled, stayed quiet, abandoned her needs, and believed exhaustion was the price of worthiness. Through reflection, healing, and gentle encouragement, this conversation reminds you that you no longer have to carry everything alone. It’s time to grieve. To release. To make space for the woman you are becoming. Because your blossoming is coming. 🤍 Here are some useful links for you: Download my Free Beating Burnout Guide for nurses and healthcare professionals, Beating Burnout Blueprint [https://www.sheenadjohnson.com/ebook] -Follow me on Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/coachsheena.johnson/] -Follow me on LinkedIn (25) Sheena Johnson | LinkedIn [https://www.linkedin.com/in/sheena-johnson-74018a245/] If you loved this episode, Click the SUBSCRIBE and stay up to date for your weekly prescriptions to PrioritizeYourself. podcast

Episode Through New Eyes: The Magic of the Second Time Around Cover

Through New Eyes: The Magic of the Second Time Around

Have you ever revisited something you thought you were finished with, only to discover it in a completely new way? In this episode, I share a simple but powerful experience that started while clearing out old vision board magazines and turned into a beautiful reminder about growth, perspective, and personal evolution. As I found myself drawn back to something I'd done many times before, I realised that sometimes it's not the experience that changes—it's us. Join me as I explore the unexpected joy of revisiting old dreams, hobbies, places, and possibilities, and why the second time around might hold exactly what you need in this season of your life. This episode is a gentle invitation to stay curious, remain open, and trust that growth often reveals itself when we least expect it. 💛

Episode Fear I See YOU! And I am turning Up For Myself. Cover

Fear I See YOU! And I am turning Up For Myself.

In this episode, I share a personal reflection on life after leaving full-time nursing and the fears that surfaced as I stepped into a new chapter of writing, podcasting, and creativity. We explore how fear can disguise itself as doubt, the stories we tell ourselves when we're outside our comfort zones, and the power of choosing new beliefs that support our growth. If you've ever questioned yourself, worried about starting over, or wondered whether you're capable of creating the life you truly want, this episode is a reminder that you are worthy, capable, and more powerful than you think.

Owning their Superpower Cover

Goodbye Burnout! Women in Healthcare Are Owning their Superpower

In this very personal episode, I share my journey through nursing, burnout, grief, and self-discovery, and how years of constantly giving to others led me to forget myself in the process. Superpower is a raw and honest reflection on healing, boundaries, self-worth and learning to prioritise yourself without guilt. This episode is for every woman, nurse, and healthcare professional who has been running on empty while still showing up for everyone else. It’s a reminder that choosing yourself is not selfish — it’s absolutely necessary to thrive.
