I’m not a registered nurse (YET) but working on COVID-19 frontlines is not to be taken lightly. It’s not just nurses doing it. It’s also the psychiatric technicians sitting on patients that refuse to wear masks and could possibly have the virus. It’s tough but I know that experience is shaping what I want to do in trauma care. We need you guys to stay vigilant in self care and disease prevention. #nursestudent #neurotraumanurse #psychiatry #covid19 #podcastlife #truth #psychology #psychotherapist #patientcare #medicine #blacknursesrock #blacknurseskillingit #melaninmagic https://www.instagram.com/p/CId7J5AAcPq/?igshid=c05p9ty2negm

You can only become truly accomplished at something you love. Don’t make money your goal. Instead, pursue the things you love doing, and then do them so well that people can’t take their eyes off you.

Repost @abigailllove 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗪𝗢𝗥𝗗𝗦 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗣𝗢𝗪𝗘𝗥𝗙𝗨𝗟 ——— Just taking this moment to remind myself and all of you of how powerful words are. Whether it’s directed at yourself or somebody else, the words you say does have the ability to make or break you/someone. ——— The unfortunate part about this is that negative comments tend to stick and penetrate far quicker and longer than the positive comments. I guess that’s how we’re made. SO let’s try and lift one another up with our words. Better yet let’s also act on those words and really show each other that we care. ——— Proverbs 15:4 “Gentle words bring life and health; a deceitful tongue crushes the spirit.” ——— Scrub: @bornouniforms .
