Author | Inspirational Speaker | Nurse Empowerment Guide

Welcome — I’m Kirsty Morgan

I’m an author, inspirational speaker, and former neonatal nurse practitioner with over 30 years of international healthcare experience — and I’m also someone who has lived through profound grief, severe PTSD, and complete burnout.

When my own breakdown forced me to stop, I didn’t just recover—I discovered something vital. To survive, I created powerful stress-control and release techniques that work in real-time: at the bedside, during trauma, in the moments when you need them most. These include guided meditations and practical tools you can use even in the middle of a shift.

My work is dedicated to supporting nurses before they reach breaking point. Whether you’re struggling with burnout, compassion fatigue, or the cumulative weight of caring for others, I’m here to share the practical tools that helped me heal—and can help you reclaim your wellbeing while you’re still in the profession you love.

Because you shouldn’t have to break before you can heal.

What if, in one tragic moment, everything you knew about your life was shattered?

 One ordinary afternoon, Kirsty’s world was turned upside down when a freak accident left her holding her soulmate’s life in her hands. Ian was more than just a loving partner—he was a kind-hearted force for good, a true gentleman whose generosity touched everyone around him. But despite her desperate efforts to save him, fate had other plans. Days later, he was gone.

 Left drowning in grief, guilt, and the relentless question—Had she done enough?—Kirsty struggled to navigate a world that no longer made sense. The weight of loss, PTSD, and physical collapse pushed her to the edge. How do you move forward when every step feels like walking on shattered glass?

Raw, heart-wrenching, and unexpectedly laced with humour, this deeply personal memoir follows Kirsty’s journey through profound grief and the slow, painful path toward healing. In the darkness, she uncovered the power to release stress, tame anxiety, and sidestep the deep pit of depression.

 This book isn’t just about loss—it’s about resilience, and it carries a message for those on the frontline of care. Nurses are so often stretched thin, emotionally exhausted, and constantly putting others first, they risk losing themselves in the process. Kirsty hopes her story will serve as a reminder that even in the most broken places, healing is possible—and that self-care isn’t a luxury, but a necessity.

This book exists as a resource for your healing journey – a reminder that even in the most broken places, recovery is possible.
