In episode 7 of the Transform Nursing podcast, we are listening to Jayne Peterson.  Jayne is a board certified  Integrative Nurse Coach with 35 years of nursing experience and is an accredited 5Rhythms teacher.  She specializes in promoting health and healing through embodied movement, imagery, and mindfulness in ways that are gentle and invite a sense of exploration and play. When Jayne found herself triggered and defensive by an African American nurse who had been writing about issues around white privilege she realized she had some "stuff" to unpack. ,She started taking an 8 week course about white privilege taught at her church and began to see the herself in the world very differently.   Takeaways from this episode: Mindfulness enhances self-awareness and you are in relation to the work of social justice and equity Serving our healthcare systems means serving the people who are providing care Make learning about social justice non-negotiable.  You can find more information about Jayne at jaynepeterson@prodigy.net or find her online at www.nursecoachjayne.com If you have any questions from the show please email me at: transformnursing@gmail.com.   My website is: www.transformnursing.com And my course, the Nurses Influential Leadership Lab can be found at: https://transformnursing.com/trainings/ I absolutely love learning about fresh topics so please share those with me and if you email me your testimonial or response I will share it on the next show.  If you like something I've said in the show (or don't like it) please let me know.  I am all about engaging in conversation with you.
