Embracing Mortality: How Nurses Can Live Authentically

Colton opens up about loss, perspective, and what it really means to live a life you’re proud of. After his grandpa’s funeral, he’s hit with some major clarity — and he’s not gatekeeping it. This episode dives into how nurses see life and death differently, and why that’s actually the ultimate reminder to start living on purpose.

If you’ve ever felt stuck, burnt out, or unsure if you’re on the right path, this one’s your gentle (but real) reality check.
