Sh*t I Want to Say as a Nurse But Can’t

After almost two decades of being a nurse — let me tell you something I know for sure…

Nursing will teach you patience.

It will humble you.

It will test you in ways you never expected.

And most of all — it will teach you how to bite your tongue.

Because whewww… the things I wanted to say versus what I actually said?

Listen… that’s a whole book by itself.

The Reality of Nurse Life

People think nurses are supposed to be quiet, calm, collected — no matter what is said to us or how we’re treated.

And to some extent? That’s true.

Professionalism matters.

Your license matters even more.

But there are moments…Moments where you want to match that energy.

Moments where you want to say exactly what’s on your mind.

Moments where you want to walk away with your peace AND your dignity intact.

Why I Created the Sh*t I Want to Say But Can’t Journal

I didn’t create this journal for cute aesthetics.

I created this journal because I KNOW what it feels like to hold it in.

To replay the conversation later.

To vent to your work bestie.

To drive home in silence just processing the day.

This journal gives nurses (yes, YOU) a safe space to say all the things without risking your license, peace, or reputation.

It’s simple:

Because as much as we want to pop off sometimes…We also know we have way too much to lose.
