Club Nurse
Welcome to Club Nurse, babes — the podcast where nursing meets real talk, big feelings, and zero fluff. I’m your host, Colton Lord (yes, from @nursedaddies), and we’re getting into everything from nurse life and burnout to identity, ambition, and healing — with honesty, humor, and a whole lot of heart. PERIOD.
This is your space to feel seen, spill tea, and connect with the community you didn’t know you needed. Expect nurse news, guest convos, unfiltered stories, and inspo to slay both in and out of scrubs. Because this profession is wild — but you don’t have to go through it alone. Let’s laugh, vent, grow, and absolutely slay together. 💅🩺
