Thriving in practice: A call for purpose, balance, and well-being

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Nurse practitioners (NPs) are uniquely positioned to model health and resilience by prioritizing their well-being, setting healthy boundaries, and fostering habits that support balance in everyday life. By shifting away from a culture of martyrdom and unhealthy self-sacrifice, NPs can lead by example, demonstrating the value of balanced and purposeful living. As a senior military leader, NP, and health and wellness coach, I offer my perspective on strategies for NPs to establish healthy boundaries, build and maintain healthy habits, and cultivate a fulfilling and healthy work environment.
