The Stories Life Writes Through Us: Nursing, Hospice, Faith & Storytelling
What happens when a lifetime of caring for people, witnessing loss, raising a family, and navigating life’s hardest moments becomes the foundation for storytelling?
Join me for a new live episode of Notes From the Edge with author, legal nurse consultant, hospice specialist, teacher, and multi-genre storyteller Nancy Jasin Ensley.
Nancy has spent decades working in professions that require empathy, discernment, and the ability to remain present during some of life’s most critical moments. Those experiences now inform the stories she writes across memoir, literary fiction, science fiction, mystery, thrillers, action and adventure, and children’s literature.
Together, we’ll explore:
• How nursing and hospice shape the way we understand life, loss, and what truly matters
• Why writing can help us process the experiences that leave a mark
• How family, faith, service, and lived experience become powerful stories
• The identity of being the helper, the strong one, or the person everyone depends on
• How writers turn real-life experiences into fiction, memoir, and meaningful conversations
• What it means to preserve memory and make sense of life through storytelling
This is a conversation about caregiving, creativity, resilience, reflection, and the stories that are quietly being written through each of us.
