Christina Dunbar: Forging Nursing Leaders

Christina Dunbar started her nursing career in the pediatric ICU and worked in several other areas before going back to school for her FNP and finding her place in adult oncology. After some time in the clinical world, she saw an opportunity and took a management position leading a team in oncology. This was a challenging position and she found herself burning out. We discuss the need for more support for nurses in those management roles where they are between the team that they lead, and their needs, all while trying to manage within the confines of a healthcare system that is trying to keep a business running. She made a decision to put herself first and chose to leave that leadership role and focus on intentional living and spending more time with her family.

Out of her own burnout, Christina started with daily journaling and taking 10 minutes to practice mindfulness. This eventually led her start a podcast called Intentional Ten: Intentional Living with Christina Dunbar, which she calls her passion project. Her business focuses on setting intentions, and taking time out of each day to care for yourself and set goals that work for you. Starting in January 2021, Christina will be offering a monthlong challenge that will include daily podcasts and intention setting. Visit her website for more information about her January offering.
