Welcome to The Nursing Well

Welcome, Beautiful Soul,

Happy New Year!

If no one has told you lately, thank you!

Thank you for the way you show up.

Thank you for giving, for caring, for pouring love and energy into the world.

I created The Nursing Well because I've lived it.

The long shifts. The aching feet. The quiet tears on the drive home. The deep love for the work, mixed with exhaustion.

And yet, we keep going.

Because we care.

Because our hearts are wired to hold space, to heal, to help.

But who helps us?

That question led me here.

Why I created this space

I am Mika, a pediatric nurse, former yoga teacher (currently in Savasana), and dreamer of The Nursing Well. I know firsthand what it feels like to hold it all together, give it all you've got, while slowly losing touch with your own center.

The nursing well is a space for us, the givers, the nurturers, the healers, to come home to ourselves.

Here, you'll find:

Tools for emotional recovery and self-care

Soulful reflections on nurse life

Resources and rituals for your well-being

Affirmations, audios, and stories to keep your heart lifted

Whether you're a nurse, a caregiver, a student, or a soul who feels deeply, my hope is that this feels like a soft place to land.

From Burnout to Balance

One of the most significant lessons I've learned is that healing isn't just physical; it encompasses all aspects of our being, including energetic, emotional, and spiritual wellness.

Taking care of yourself, mind, body, and spirit isn't a luxury.

It is your divine responsibility.

And when we return to the well, to rest, to reflect, to realign, we return ready to live and give from overflow, not depletion.

What's next?

This is just the beginning.

In 2026, I will ll be sharing:

My favorite self-care habits between shifts

Night-shift affirmations and energy resets

My High Vibe Playlists

And how I am turning this blog into an income stream that honors my energy.

We deserve a life that feels good.

A life that honors our spirit. That fills us with peace, pleasure, and purpose.

This blog is my love letter to that version of you.

This is for us.

Thank you for being here.

You could be anywhere on the internet, and you chose to land here with me.

Come sip. Refill. Come home to yourself.

Welcome to The Nursing Well.

With Love and Light,

Mika

Let’s be friends. Here’s a peek behind the scenes…

🌞 My Morning mood?

5am wake up, pray, stretch, hydrate, go for a run while listening to uplifting music, sometimes a good podcast or audiobook...then vibes.

I like my mornings like I like my energy: grounded and glowy.

🍉 My love language is:

Watermelon juice, long hugs, forehead kisses, and acts of service.

Oh, and homemade meals with candles lit… even if it’s just me. 🥰

🧘🏽‍♀️ Before nursing, I was a yoga teacher

Which means I still randomly stretch in the grocery aisle, and yes, I will deep breathe my way through traffic.

💰 My dream day?

Waking up in my home, next to my husband… A beach walk, fresh juice with breakfast (homemade, of course), deep laughter, a long chat with my bestie, no debt, and a bank account that says, “We’re good, sis.”

🎶 Soundtrack of my soul lately:

Maijah’s Butterfly, Sandra Mbuyi's Goodness, a little Alina Baraz, Gospel music, and anything high-vibe, healing, afro beats, or late 90s and Early 2000s R&B. Bonus points if I can strut to it. (The world is my runway)

📦 Currently manifesting:

My soulmate, a peaceful six-figure soft life, and a book launch that aligns with my birthday.

👩🏽‍⚕️ Most used phrase at work?

“I got you.” or "No worries."
