Welcome to Stand-By-You Health Coaching
About Me: From Nurse to Health Coach
I’m Heather Newman, a health coach committed to helping nurses break free from burnout and reclaim their energy—without guilt.
For years, I worked long hours, managed countless personal responsibilities, worked full-time, and was always pursuing higher education. I thought that pushing through exhaustion was just part of life—until the weight of overwork, emotional over-investment, and self-sacrifice started catching up with me. I felt drained, disconnected, and wondered how long I could keep going.
Burnout forced me to step back and reevaluate. I realized that caring deeply doesn’t mean giving endlessly and that boundaries aren’t a barrier to compassion—they sustain it. Through my own healing, I learned practical, sustainable strategies to manage stress, protect my energy, and create balance.
Now, I help nurses do the same
Individual 1:1 coaching to break free from burnout and reclaim your peace
As a health coach, I guide other nurses through the same transformation I experienced—helping them navigate the challenges of burnout while creating a sustainable path to well-being.
My coaching is practical, evidence-based, and designed to fit into the reality of a busy nurse’s life.
Through individualized coaching, I help nurses:
✔ Break free from emotional over-investment and protect their energy.
✔ Develop sustainable boundaries that allow them to care without burnout.
✔ Manage stress and fatigue at work and at home using science-backed techniques.
✔ Reconnect with their purpose—without sacrificing their health.
✔ Understand that self-care is not a luxury, but a necessity.
✔ Find cost-effective, realistic self-care strategies that don’t require expensive treatments or time-consuming routines.
✔ Feel supported and empowered to take control of their well-being—without guilt.
My approach is collaborative, not prescriptive—every nurse’s journey is different, and together, we develop strategies that fit your unique needs and challenges.
Corporate coaching for health care - workers
I work with healthcare organisations to reduce absenteeism, improve retention, and support staff well-being by providing burnout-focused health coaching for nurses and all care providers.
Burnout isn’t just an individual issue—it affects patient care, team morale, and organizational stability. While systemic change takes time, health coaching provides immediate, actionable support, equipping nurses with the tools to manage stress, set boundaries, and sustain their well-being.
I partner with healthcare leaders to ensure this program aligns with existing wellness initiatives and organisational goals, complementing the strategies already in place. By integrating health coaching into health, safety, and disability management efforts, organisations can take their staff support programs to the next level—enhancing resilience and fostering a healthier workplace culture.
When nurses thrive, so does the organisation. Let’s work together to build a workplace where nurses feel supported, engaged, and empowered to stay in their careers.
