FRIDAY01
When the Shift Follows You Home
The shift is over, but you’re still thinking about it. We’ll practice a simple way to pause and come back to the life waiting for you at home.
For nurses · Five free Fridays · Live on Zoom

When the Healer Is Hurting
You clocked out.
Your mind didn’t.
You cared for everyone on your shift. Now you’re home, tired, and still carrying the day. Who’s checking on you?
Save my place45 minutes each Friday. No cost. You can come and just listen.
Does this sound familiar?
You’re off duty.
But you’re still
on call inside.
You can care about nursing and still be worn out by what it asks of you.
In the ER, on the floor, or in a clinic, you’re expected to keep going. Then you get home, and life needs something from you, too.
Where do you put all of that?
- You’re tired enough to sleep, but your mind keeps going back to the shift.
- You have less patience at home, then feel bad about how you spoke to someone you love.
- You feel guilty saying no to one more shift, even when you need the rest.
- You’re the one people count on, but you need someone to check on you.
That person needs care, too.
What we’ll work on
How do you leave work
without bringing
all of it home?
I’m inviting you to five Friday conversations about what the work asks of you—and what you need to keep doing it without losing yourself.
- Notice what’s still weighing on you after a shift.
- Try a simple way to pause when the workday ends.
- Find words to ask for the help you need.
- Leave with one next step that fits your life.
Our time together
Five Fridays.
45 minutes for you.
We’ll learn, take a moment to think, and leave room for conversation. You choose how much you share.
FRIDAY02
The Weight of Being the Strong One
Everyone leans on you. Where do you lean? We’ll talk about why asking for help can be hard and how to take one small step.
FRIDAY03
What Am I Actually Carrying?
Is it stress? Grief? Burnout? We’ll find words for what you may be feeling and talk about where to turn for help.
FRIDAY04
Knowing Better Doesn’t Make It Easier
You know you need rest. Finding time for it is another story. We’ll look at small changes that can fit the week you actually have.
FRIDAY05
Rebuilding
What needs to change? What help do you need? We’ll put together a simple plan you can take with you.
Notice the weight → Know what’s yours → Come off duty
Some days, you need a minute before you can even get out of the car.Let’s talk about what you’re carrying.
A word from Harry
I’m Harry Turner.
I’m a licensed clinical social worker. I’ve worked in hospital, community, and correctional mental health settings.
For these five Fridays, I’m here to teach and guide the conversation. I want us to look honestly at what you carry and what might help.
Short staffing, missed breaks, bills, and family needs are real. We’ll keep those in view as we talk about what you can do and where you need support.
You don’t have to have the right words. You can start by showing up.
A few things to know
Is this for me?
If you’re a nurse and the work has been weighing on you, you’re welcome here. Other healthcare workers who care for patients are welcome, too. Our examples will focus on nursing.
Do I have to talk or turn my camera on?
No. You can listen, keep your camera off, and skip any activity. Please leave out patient names and details that could identify someone. We ask everyone to respect privacy, but we can’t promise what others may repeat.
What if I’m working that night?
The teaching replay will be available for 72 hours after each session. Group discussion and Q&A will stay out of the replay.
What does it cost?
All five sessions are free. You’ll also get learning materials to keep. You don’t have to buy anything to take part.
Is this therapy?
No. This is a place to learn and reflect. Joining does not make me your therapist. We won’t diagnose or treat anyone, and the series does not provide crisis care.
