Description
Default to YES is your weekly coaching session for nurses ready for more.
More clarity. More confidence. More capacity.
More freedom to move from regulation to reinvention—without losing yourself in the process.
Hosted by Board Certified Nurse Coach and Clinically Certified Aromatherapist Juli Reynolds, this podcast blends neuroscience, holistic health, and soul-centered coaching to help nurses and healthcare leaders rise above burnout, regulate their nervous systems, navigate career and life transitions, and live the life they were created for.
Each episode delivers:
Science-backed strategies for nervous system regulation, brain health, resilience, and sustainable performance in healthcare
Holistic practices like aromatherapy, breathwork, and lifestyle medicine designed specifically for real nursing life
Stories, reflection, and coaching questions that build courage, boundaries, confidence, and clarity in your day-to-day work and life
If you’re ready to move beyond surviving shifts and start saying YES—
YES to your calling
YES to your health
YES to ethical boundaries
YES to your extraordinary self
This show will guide you—step by step—from regulation to reinvention.
