Just what is analysis paralysis and how can it sabotage your practice startup? Analysis paralysis refers to the state of overthinking, and excessive analysis to the point where moving forward is quite difficult.

As a male nurse, I find myself in a unique position within a profession often associated with female caregivers.

Michael L. Evans I graduated from my basic nursing program in 1973 (50 years ago!). Just like now, a significant nursing shortage existed then, too. As a matter of fact, I don’t recall a single time in my long career that we weren’t faced with a shortage. I spent over 30 years on the delivery side of nursing care, as a staff nurse, nurse administrator, and as a chief nursing officer (CNO) in medium and large hospitals.

An estimated 1.1 billion women worldwide will have experienced menopause by 2025. Symptoms like hot flashes, fatigue, and anxiety can be incredibly disruptive — and last for years.
