"natasha, i picked you"

Every morning that I wake up and drive to work in the ER, I don’t know what the day will bring. I don’t know how many patients we will see, or how many patients will be sent home in isolation. I had a patient asked me, “what do you do to try to unwind after a stressful day in times like these?” My answer was simple, I play my favorite @taylorswift songs, pour some wine, and FaceTime my friends because it’s important to know that you are not alone in these times. It’s important to keep good mental health in these times. My recommendation is to have a FaceTime dance party with those that mean the most to you! You could even say “it’s nice to have a FaceTime friend”

i finished nursing school this past summer and seemed to get a job right in time. being in this field during this time is extremely difficult. the hospitals are dealing with increased patient traffic while also trying to cope with the multiple changes being made in the politics of the profession. i don’t regret what i do for a second. it’s honestly so rewarding working in somewhere as crazy as the emergency room. especially now. i hope this whole thing slows down soon and everything can go back to each of our own versions of normal. and everyone who’s sick with this virus can soon return home and recover. until then, i promise me and my colleagues will work each and every day to do our best. sometimes it’s scary to work during all of this craziness but i am extremely greatful i’m even able to!!! i hope everyone’s coping as best as they can. and thanks to @taylorswift as always for her undying support and motivation for frontline responders and workers everywhere. i’ll always be here to give it right back.

Last min of free time before suiting up this morning I took this picture to remind myself (and anyone else that needs it) that we are going to be ok. Yes it is scary. Yes it is hard. No we dont have all the answers. But we are all in this together. And together we can help one another through anything. Thank you swiftie fam for creating the best place for me to come at the end of a long shift to find friends, fun, laughter and support. And thank you so much@taylorswift for keeping me going and always being the music in my mind saying its gonna be alright. Stay safe guys, love you all 💗

thanks for wishing me good luck. it worked!!!!!! love you lots

I woke up today to the news that Beautiful Ghosts is nominated for a Golden Globe - it’s so cool that one of the most fun, fulfilling creative experiences I’ve ever had is being honored in this way by the HFPA. I ended up spending many days on set watching the other performers do their scenes. Watching the character Victoria, played by Frankie Hayward inspired me so much and Beautiful Ghosts was the result. Congrats to my co-writer and buddy 4 life Andrew Lloyd Webber. This is just purrfect. 😸
