Nurse To Author: Intuition And Grit with Jenn Johnson
from Overcome Yourself The Podcast With Nicole Tuxbury · host Nicole
Send us Fan MailWhat happens when the job that defines you nearly breaks you—and then hands you the blueprint to rebuild? Jenn, a 17-year ER nurse, joins us to share how COVID burnout pushed her to write, research, and ultimately teach the skill that kept showing up in her toughest shifts: intuition. She didn’t stop at stories; she hunted the science, uncovering dozens of peer-reviewed studies that validate what seasoned clinicians feel at the bedside—your gut often knows before your brain can explain.We walk through Jenn’s journey from the trauma bay to the page, and how that path led to practical journals that help nurses track growth, process grief, and protect their wellness at home. These are not pretty notebooks; they are tools that capture wins, map patterns, and counter the lie that you’re not learning fast enough. We also explore gratitude without the sugarcoat. Real gratitude anchors attention during hard seasons, lowers stress, and keeps you present for the next patient without erasing what hurt about the last one.Along the way, Jenn shares hard-earned lessons about saying yes to wild opportunities, bombing a small pitch to win a bigger stage, and embracing boundaries even when they get you labeled a “villain.” We touch on thin slicing—the rapid judgments clinicians make from tiny cues—and how a two-second pause can surface the signal your body already noticed. If you’re a nurse, student, or anyone grinding through high-stakes work, this conversation delivers research-backed mindset shifts and everyday practices you can use on your very next shift.Subscribe, share this with a nurse who needs it, and leave a review to help more listeners find tools that make their careers sustainable.
