042: Gain Your Power Back with Nurul Norzahari

Gain Your Power Back

Nurses know that they have a passion for helping and taking care of others, but knowing this is never enough to get them through the difficult times. Even before the whole pandemic situation, one may see some nurses losing enthusiasm for their work.

In this episode of High Performance Nursing, I chat with the fabulous Nurul Norzahari. She is a Registered Nurse, Personal Trainer, and the Founder of FitNurseCo. Her 10 years of combined work experience has been moving and motivating health professionals for the benefit of their well-being

Nurul is here to talk about how nurses can gain their power back. To do this, she advises nurses to truly know themselves, assess their emotions, and write their goals. Nurul also showcased the importance for nurses to understand deeply their why. 

Nurses should know how to take back power over their lives and don’t let a stressful work or person control them. As a result, their mind and body reach homeostasis and their personal and professional lives become more aligned. They become motivated to do well in their careers, and they greatly appreciate who they are outside work.
