This Nurse Is in a Committed Relationship with Burnout

Burnout isn’t just a buzzword—it’s a full-body meltdown, and Colton’s living proof. After years of chasing travel nurse pay, skipping rest days, and stacking shifts like a sleep-deprived Jenga tower, he’s finally hitting the brakes (barely). With humor, honesty, and a rogue car metaphor, he unpacks what happens when you ignore your limits, glamorize the grind, and forget to schedule time to just be. If your body feels like a check engine light with a stethoscope, this one’s for you.>>10 States Where Nurse Burnout Is Out of Control — Is Yours on the List?Jump Ahead to Listen:[00:02:39] Burnout in nursing community.[00:04:05] Work-life balance struggles.[00:09:46] Work-life balance struggles.[00:10:40] The importance of self-maintenance.[00:13:59] Extreme burnout awareness and discussion.Connect with Colton on social media:Instagram: @coltonalanlord, @nursedaddies, @club.nurseTikTok: @nursecolton🎙️ About the Club Nurse PodcastThank you for tuning in!
