Hey all. I'm finishing up my last semester of my BSN at the University of Tennessee and I'm just curious about experiences others have had as a nurse and a Christian. I love God and have been praying for His guidance in this area as I have always struggled socially. I had a somewhat "off the beaten path" start to my adult life. I have found that I rely on my faith more and more the closer I get to graduation knowing I am quite different, mainly in how I think, (artistic type and right-brained).
I have been through some interesting experiences that have somewhat shaped me and it's been difficult to balance that when it comes to interacting with others.
Does anyone have any stories, similar struggles, experiences they would be willing to share?
I am going into this career as a 30 year old-female and former United States Marine to give you some perspective.
I would greatly appreciate feedback on how you've been able to bring your own uniqueness, struggles, and/or faith into the nursing profession.
