Lori A. Smith, RN, of Balanced Intentions, in Bonita Springs, provides in-person, phone and Zoom well-being coaching and spiritual thought sessions especially geared to assist nurses and other caregivers. She works together with clients to create plans and accountability within them to break through the factors that may be holding individuals back.

“Caregivers need care, too,” Smith emphasizes. “If you are a nurse or other caregiver, you know that you have a tendency to put others’ needs before yours. Day in and day out, this trait shines through, and while honorable and characteristic to those with this calling, it can also be the very trait that prevents you from reaching your full potential, both personally and professionally.”   

She advises, “The saying goes, ‘Once a nurse, always a nurse.’ Whether currently practicing or not, nursing burnout is real. Many lose their passion long before their student loans are paid off. You owe it to yourself to focus on your own biopsychospiritual needs.”
