🧔🏻‍♂️I’m at the point where I really don’t give a F*** what anybody thinks about me as I give thanks to GOD and let him lead focusing on taking my health seriously.🤷🏽‍♂️🫀

The last few months I’ve been focused on a few things which are becoming a healthier, stronger & happier version of myself.

Im a father, cardio runner and work in healthcare. I’ve seen what happens when people spend years putting their health last. So why the heck would I spend my life taking care of everyone else while neglecting myself? It defeats the purpose of being CardiacStrong right?

I’m gonna run my miles. 🏃🏽‍♂️
I’m gonna lift heavy. 💪🏽
I’m gonna watch what I eat. 🥩
I’m gonna prioritize recovery. 😴
I’m gonna continue to be present for my daughter.👧🏻
And I’m gonna keep showing up because the LORD gives me all the strength in the world & im not ashamed to admit that.

Not because I’m trying to impress anybody.
Because I want to LIVE.
I want my heart strong.
I want my body strong.
I want my mind strong.
And I want to be around for the people who depend on me like Mi familia, my daughter, my friends, my patients and the ones who end up joining my circle.

Some days I eat clean. Some days I don’t. Some workouts are great. Some suck. I’m not chasing perfection, all I’m chasing is consistency and oh s**t it’s been kicking my ass after working my full healthcare shifts, but gotta get it done.

You can judge the workouts.
You can judge the diet.
You can judge the selfies.

I don’t give a F***. 😂

Because while everybody else is forming opinions, I’m still putting in the work. Remember as Healthcare professionals we spend enough time keeping everybody else alive, so it’s important to take care of your own damn heart too. ❤️

Stay healthy. Stay moving. Stay my fellow NurseBrothers and NurseSisters.🫀💪🏽

😷Good Evening My Fellow Nurses & Healthcare Team✊🏽.
Please keep your strength to keep your head up because our patients need us, It’s a very demanding time more than ever in history. If you take on the responsibility right now as a nurse then
You’re present at a birth.
You’re present at a death.
You’re dealing with people who need you because they aren’t having the best day in their lives at all.
“I Can Do All Things Through Christ, Which Strengthens Us.” Phil4:13.
Especially when so many patients get admitted with different co-morbidities, remember that we all deal with
Injury,
Death &
Addictions. So this is for all of my nurses who do their best to hold it all together. It’s challenging & it can be thankless, but worth every min.
“I, the LORD, search the heart, I test the mind, Even to give every man according to his ways, According to the fruit of his doings.”
Jeremiah 17:10.
Even though our career can deal with tragedies at work, I wanted to confirm with each & everyone of you that being a nurse is still the greatest job in the world in my eyes. Through this amid chaos at times being a Nurse, I lose myself & thrive through the hospital setting feeding my inner nursing spirit, mind & somehow my smile on my face widens more.
“For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power & of love and of a sound mind.”
II Timothy 1:7.
There are many reasons I chose this profession besides loving my career, but the main one is how much I love all the random relationships I have built with my coworkers and patients.
Always remember that we had to start somewhere & remember that all of our Nurses, Doctors & other Healthcare providers can sometimes pride themselves on the great care they have given their patients, but there’s a deeper meaning than that. We have to always remain humble & we should extend that same care to each other as our own colleagues & co-workers.
“The Humble He Guides In Justice, The Humble He Teaches His Way.” Psalm25:9.

😷Stop Me When I Lie My Fellow NurseBrothers and NurseSisters because you if you think nurses spend all day on their phones…that’s freaking adorable.

The second I unlock my phone:

📞 Lab: “Critical result.”
📞 X-ray: “Patient’s back.”
📞 Pharmacy: “Question about the order.”
📞 Doctor: “Can you give me an update?”
📞 Family member: “Can I speak to the nurse?”
📞 Charge nurse: “Need you in room 12.”
📞 PT/OT: “Is your patient available?”
📞 Dietary: “Can they eat yet?”
📞 Case management: “Quick question…”
🚨 Bed alarm.
🚨 IV pump screaming.
🚨 Patient needs the bathroom.
🚨 Another patient wants pain meds.
🚨 Another patient needs discharge education.
🚨 Another admission just rolled through the damn door.

Three hours later I finally look at my phone…

127 unread texts.
19 missed calls.
Battery at 8%.
Still haven’t replied to my mom from yesterday.

Trust me, we’re not ignoring our phones.

We’re just too damn busy keeping people alive.

I’m an emotional wreck right now!!! Let me tell ya why!
I’ve been watching Lionel Messi for over 25 years, and it still feels unreal to witness greatness every time he steps on the pitch. 🐐🇦🇷

Now Argentina is officially heading to another World Cup, and once again Messi continues to rewrite the history books. Records come and go, but what makes him truly special isn’t just the trophies or the statistics, its the passion, vision, humility, intelligence and Mudafukn pure joy he brings to the beautiful game.

We’re witnessing something that future generations will only be able to watch in highlight reels. I honestly believe we’re watching the GOAT of GOATs. Yes I said it & once-in-a-lifetime genius whose creativity, leadership, and love for football have inspired millions around the world, including me.

No matter which club or country you support, moments like this deserve appreciation. Players like Messi don’t come around often, and one day we’ll all tell the next generation, “I watched him play.”

Congratulations, Argentina! Congratulations, Leo! Thank you for giving the world decades of unforgettable memories. The journey continues… and history keeps being written. 💙🤍🏆

Now I want to hear from all of you…

😍ARE YOU SERIOUS? Some Father’s Day gifts can’t be wrapped⚽️

Today my daughter and I witnessed greatness as we watched Lionel Messi make history live. Seeing one of the greatest athletes of all time was incredible, but sharing that moment with my little girl made it truly priceless. I might have shed a tear, Shhhhh nobody needs to know. lol

The game will be remembered, but the memories we made together will last forever. Wow, a mesmerizing goal and thank you Messi for the magic and thank you, Nia, for making every adventure unforgettable. Let’s F’ Go
