I couldn’t finish my Valentine’s Day gift ideas without telling you about my favorite kind of candy…chocolate! If you can believe it (I can’t believe I’m admitting this), a day doesn’t go by that I don’t eat chocolate in some form. Hot chocolate, cold chocolate, chocolate chips, and dark chocolate are my favorite sources…but anything [...]

Ten years ago (I’m totally aging myself), I boldly walked into my first interview as a new nurse, ready to start my career. I was passionate about changing the world and what better way to do that than at the bedside. As time went by, I gained the confidence and experience necessary to advance my [...]
