Inside the Hive
The Official Podcast of HIVENurse!
HIVENurse was co-founded by practicing nurses who understand the realities of the profession. Alongside faculty, mentors, and advisors, we’re building a platform shaped by nurses, for nurses.
Nurses are navigating burnout, staffing strain, and professional isolation. Traditional CE often feels like a checkbox — disconnected from real practice or growth. HIVENurse changes that by bringing professional development + authentic community together in one place.
- Mission: To empower every nurse with meaningful professional development and authentic community connection that advance growth, well-being, and practice.
- Vision: To be the Hive where nurses worldwide come together to learn, lead, and thrive — shaping the future of nursing through knowledge, connection, and shared purpose.

Time to Reconnect: Helping Nurses Find Their 'Why' Again
Are you a nurse feeling the weight of the everyday grind? Do the long shifts, the emotional toll, and the systemic pressures sometimes make you forget why you chose this incredible, demanding profession in the first place? You're not alone.
In this powerful and essential episode, we invite you to take a much-needed pause for reflection and renewal. We'll move beyond the burnout statistics and the sterile fluorescent lights to explore the deep, personal "why" that first called you to the bedside.
We'll share practical strategies and thoughtful prompts designed to help you:
- Silence the noise and identify the moments that truly bring you professional fulfillment.
- Acknowledge and process the grief, exhaustion, and moral injury that are inherent to the job.
- Rediscover the initial spark—that core belief or experience that set you on the path to nursing.
- Build a personal "reconnection toolkit" for sustaining your passion and joy long after this episode ends.
This isn't about ignoring the tough realities of modern healthcare; it's about fortifying your spirit so you can meet those realities with resilience, purpose, and a renewed sense of pride.
Tune in to peel back the layers and reconnect with the extraordinary human being behind the scrubs. Your patients need you, and more importantly, you need you.
