Beyond Burnout: Strategies for Nurse Wellness with Vince Pitstick

from Beyond The Mask: Innovation & Opportunities For CRNAs · host Jeremy Stanley

The ​nursing ​profession ​has ​always ​been ​a ​cornerstone ​of ​the ​healthcare ​system, ​but ​in ​recent ​years, ​the ​pressure, ​burnout ​and ​emotional ​toll ​have ​reached ​crisis ​levels. That’s why we wanted to spend time with functional health expert Vince Pitstick, founder & CEO of Vidal Coaching, to help bring awareness to the hidden epidemic facing America’s nursing workforce. Vince draws on decades of experience as a coach and advocate for holistic wellness to reveal how chronic stress, broken reimbursement models, immune system overload, and poor nutritional support are pushing nurses to their breaking point. Here’s some of what you’ll hear in this episode: 🧠 The real reasons behind emotional burnout and chronic stress in nurses 💉 Why today’s healthcare model is failing the very people who keep it running 📊 Shocking stats about nurse health, weight gain, and metabolic strain 🌡️ How adrenaline, cortisol, and blood sugar wreak havoc on the body ❄️ The surprising power of cold plunges and breathwork to reset the nervous system   About our guest: https://vidalcoaching.com/who-we-are/vince-pitstick/ Connect on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/vince_pitstick/?hl=en  Connect on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@vince_pitstick    Visit us online: https://beyondthemaskpodcast.com/ The 1099 CRNA Institute: https://aana.com/1099 Get the CE Certificate here (and directly submit to the NBCRNA): https://beyondthemaskpodcast.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Beyond-the-Mask-CE-Cert-FILLABLE.pdf Help us grow by leaving a review: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/beyond-the-mask-innovation-opportunities-for-crnas/id1440309246 Donate to Our Heart Your Hands here: https://www.ourheartsyourhands.org/donate
