Gifted goodies from the brands tagged below 🤍

I walked into my room and thought, “Wait… all of this is for US?!” Every corner I turned, there was MORE swag. You guys, I was freaking spoiled. 😂🙌

And included the sweetest little handwritten note in their bag. Such a thoughtful touch that made the welcome feel even more special. 🥹

Thank you for bringing this incredible group of women in healthcare together, and for hosting us at this beautiful venue. So much thought went into making us feel welcomed, and I’m just really grateful to be here.

I can’t wait to get to know these women beyond our screens, hear their stories, and learn from each other. Navigating healthcare, creating content, and balancing everything in between can be a lot. Having women who understand that world, share what they’ve learned, and cheer each other on means so much. 🤍

A HUGE thank you to the brands that spoiled us:

Papa Gio did NOT want me reorganizing that sterile supply room. 😂 He was not a fan of change, and I’m pretty sure he didn’t speak to me for three months.

I continued asking for his input, stayed positive, and trusted that eventually he would see the value in what I was trying to do. Months later, he finally came up to me and said, “I really hate to say this, but you did a really good job back there.”

Change can be difficult, especially when people are comfortable doing things the way they’ve always been done. But when you lead with kindness, include people in the process, and stay focused on making things better, you really can get through to them.

Every guidebook I’ve created came from seeing a need in our profession.

From students entering the OR to experienced professionals expanding their skills, I wanted to create practical resources that make learning easier and help people feel more prepared and confident in their roles.

In this clip, I share the different guidebooks I’ve created and the purpose behind each one.

Amy and I need reminders of when we are mic'd up. This was at the Florida State Assembly, and apparently we thought whispering would help.

Just us in true form, which is not always a good thing, but it makes for some entertaining footage. I had way too much fun editing this. 🤣

Again, not my usual content, but this is what happens when you leave my kids alone with a mic and a camera 😂

Khloe while we waited to surprise Vai. Singing, losing her train of thought, making faces… I cannot with this kid. 🤣

And yes, it’s blurry. My camera decided the microwave was the star, and I’m still upset about it. 🫠

Introducing SurgFluencers... with bonus commentary from
Amy, who may have forgotten she was mic'd up. 🤣

At the Florida State Assembly, we shared the purpose behind SurgFluencers and the perspectives each member brings: practical education, stronger connections, and more respect across every role in the OR.

Educating the OR, Elevating the Standard... and keeping each other humble along the way. 😅

Thank you, Florida State Assembly, for having us!

If you've ever found a hole in a blue wrap right when you need that tray, you know. 😅

I asked the staff at Indiana Orthopedic Institute (IOI) about using the SteriCUBE, and they consistently mentioned time and efficiency. Less time dealing with blue wrap and fewer worries about finding holes when it's time to open.

Hearing from the people who use it every day matters most to me. They know the frustrations and what makes a difference in their workflow.

What's your biggest frustration with blue wrap? 👇️

No words needed.

If you've ever fought for your life with that lateral towel, you know. 🤣

Who else can relate?

Give Amy and I microphones and you're getting education, a little teasing, and whatever comes out of our mouths next.

We had so much fun at the Tennessee State Assembly sharing what we love and keeping each other humble. This is pretty much us all the time.

Close an incision? Absolutely.

Dislocate a hip? Yep.

Place a trocar? Can do.

Handle my own billing? That's where you lose me. 🤣

I want to focus on the clinical side of being a surgical first assist. All-Stars Surgical Assist helps with the billing side and pays a flate rate per case for commercial insurance cases.

If you've been thinking about going independent but are not sure where to start, reach out to All-Stars Surgical Assist. Ask whether they work in your state and what working with them could look like for you!
