About Just a Nurse
Hey there! My name is Ashley Chancellor, a published author, a Registered Nurse and a Hollistic Life & Writing Coach. I have been absorbed in the healthcare industry for nearly 20 years, working as a a travel ICU nurse for the bulk of my career. My passion for nursing (as detailed in Just a Nurse: Memoir on the Heartbeat of Healing) has seemed to be a lifelong devotion to caring for others. I, like so many others, worked the front-lines through the pandemic where unfortunately my burnout reached it’s breaking point. Left shattered and empty, with a debilitating spinal fracture and no hope for living, let alone nursing I found myself on the losing end of a career I had dedicated my life to.
My Mission
At home, broken and alone I poured my soul onto the pages in an attempt to release some of the pain and anger I had toward the healthcare industry. On the verge of not renewing my nursing license, I decided to volunteer which saved not only my nursing license but my will to live. From there I took on the daunting task of learning to truly care for myself first so that I can serve from a full cup.
My Vision
Now on the other side of burnout and as a published author I have a new passion for helping others find their medicine to share with the world. If your calling to help has led you to place of exhaustion and questioning who you are, lets jump on a call. Whether you're a writer or not, you have a story to tell and I am here to listen. I look forward to connecting with you to ultimately put caring and health back to the core of what matters - our own well being.
"In our pain and darkest moments, the most any of us need is somene to sit with us, reminding us of our own abilities to heal the awful wounds we have endured. We need to heal ourselves so we can take better care of each other."
