... Read moreProcrastination is a common struggle for many students, but it can come with its own unique twists. The awareness of procrastination, paired with the ability to meet deadlines, exemplifies a nuanced relationship with productivity. The phrase, "My only dates are due dates," captures the humor and stress of academic life, reflecting how students often navigate tight schedules. In grad school and nursing school, the pressure can feel overwhelming, yet many find efficiency in last-minute work. It is essential to develop strategies to combat procrastination, such as setting specific goals, breaking tasks into manageable parts, and establishing a clear timeline. Additionally, a supportive community or study group can help keep motivation levels high. Remember, seeking help when needed, whether from classmates or academic resources, can make a significant difference. Balancing 'mom life' with studies also adds layers of complexity for student-parents, enhancing the need for careful time management. Ultimately, while procrastination can be a hurdle, it can also foster creativity and resilience when harnessed effectively. Embracing these challenges with humor keeps the experience light and relatable for many.

Could it be lupus? What to know BEFORE you see a doctor
You’ve been tired for way too long. Your joints hurt. You feel off. You’ve gone to the doctor… and left with no real answers. Here’s the thing: Lupus can be sneaky. It mimics other conditions and hides behind vague symptoms. And many people (especially women) go years without a diagnosis.

I stared at the tattoo on my chest close to my shoulder , the one I’d gotten with such conviction five years ago. The ink that once seemed so vibrant now felt like a constant reminder of a chapter I’d closed. Back then, it represented freedom, rebellion, and a carefree spirit. But now, it felt like

A woman smiles at the camera with text overlay: 'This might be controversial...' and 'Genetic Conditions I Wish Everyone Could Be Tested For'. A DNA helix graphic is at the bottom left.
Text explains that the US healthcare system limits genetic testing to specific guidelines, requiring personal or family history to meet criteria, which often doesn't happen.
Text highlights two issues: genetic testing criteria are imperfect and miss people, and even when criteria are met, patients are often unaware due to gaps in provider knowledge.
Genetic Conditions I Wish Everyone Could Be Tested For
Everyone should have access to certain genetic tests, not just those who fit the criteria. From hereditary cancers to heart conditions, anesthesia sensitivities, clotting disorders, and more, these are risks we can do something about if we know about them early. 👉 Swipe through to see the condit
