About Me
Individual Support with the Nurse Interrupted™ Program
Individual Support with the Nurse Interrupted™ Program
I’m Heather Newman, BScN — a program developer, occupational-health–informed coach, and the creator of Nurse Interrupted™, an evidence-aligned emotional load management framework for care providers.
After years of absorbing stress and pushing past my limits, I rebuilt my boundaries and developed practical strategies to manage emotional load, reconnect with purpose, and sustain my capacity to care. Combined with my background in nursing and disability management, this work became the foundation of the Nurse Interrupted™ approach.
I also recognize that burnout isn’t an individual failure. It is shaped by staffing realities, workplace violence, and the emotional demands nurses carry every day.
Emerging research shows that brief, structured reflection and targeted micro-interventions can reduce emotional distress in healthcare professionals. Nurse Interrupted™ integrates these evidence-aligned practices with FloN™, an AI-supported reflection companion that provides a safe, structured space to pause, reflect, and reset during demanding days. FloN™ does not provide therapy or clinical advice; it enhances awareness and supports emotional regulation between sessions.

Nurse Interrupted™ is not just a coaching conversation — it’s a structured, evidence-aligned framework designed specifically for nurses who want to manage their emotional load and prevent burnout.
In one-on-one sessions, we apply the core components of the Nurse Interrupted™ approach. You’ll learn how to:
- Identify and interrupt patterns of emotional overload.
- Implement micro-interventions that reduce stress in real time.
- Rebuild sustainable boundaries that protect your energy and purpose.
- Use FloN™, our AI-supported reflection tool, to process emotional weight between sessions.
- Develop personalized, evidence-based strategies that fit into your daily nursing life.
This is about giving you a practical, professionally-aligned way to reduce emotional strain — without adding more to your plate. Each session is focused on integrating these tools into your real-world challenges, helping you sustain your capacity to care without losing yourself in the process.
