Sharing this because I think it’s important, even though it’s a little embarrassing to admit.

Friday afternoon I had chest pain for the first time in my life, radiating down my left arm. I was hesitant to even call didn’t want to be a bother but I called Henderson EMS anyway. They came, and honestly, they were fantastic. Knowledgeable, calm, and supportive the whole time.

They recommended I go to the hospital. I told them I had assignments due. Their response was “Ds still get degrees,” which made me laugh but I did not want a D, so I still signed AMA (against medical advice) anyway. Since my vitals signs were normalizing then. As a nurse and a current pre-med student. I understood exactly what that meant, but I did not want a D. 

A few hours later the pain came back along with tingling in my left arm and pain in my back and right leg, I called Henderson EMS a second time and this time I actually went. Everything came back normal, and I’ve been referred to a cardiologist for follow-up. Their advice, more or less, was “go relax” 😅 easier said than done, but I’m working on it.

I manage anxiety, panic attacks, stage 4 endometriosis, and fibroids, so I’m no stranger to my body sending confusing signals. But this was a good (and honestly humbling) reminder that I don’t always get to tell the difference between “chronic condition acting up” and “something I need to take seriously right now.”

If you take anything from this: don’t do what I did. Don’t weigh chest pain against your to-do list. Call, and actually go. Every time. by @loveash.ps

Working in mental health, I’ve cared for so many veterans who have struggled with suicidal thoughts or survived suicide attempts. Being at an event focused on suicide prevention and mental health for this community meant so much to me.

Thank you again @operationbattlecry for bringing people together and creating space for these conversations. Thank you to all the vendors who came out, shared valuable information, and helped me find more resources to support the veterans I come across who are in need.

Our veterans deserve to feel supported, heard, and cared for. 🤍 taken in Dave & Buster's by @loveash.ps

The AME The Experience was absolutely amazing! It was basically a huge fitness festival filled with great energy, incredible people, and an even better community. I woke up sore af the next day, so I am definitely in recovery mode 😂

I received so many goodies, met some really cool people, saw my local run club @livebycore , I even got to see one of my favorite fitness studio there @redemptionhenderson, and @justfriends.lv came with high energy as always! I absolutely love their social fitness community. 

I am so grateful I attended. I cannot wait for the next one and to continue growing the relationships I made. Thank you, @ame.theexperience for hosting such an incredible event! 🏃🏽‍♀️💪🏽🤍 taken in Las Vegas Strip by @loveash.ps

Last night, I participated in Narcan at Night 2026, alongside 777 incredible volunteers. This was my first volunteer event with @jamie.leigh7185 . I have always expressed how much I wanted to volunteer with her because I truly admire everything she does for our community.

The experience was overwhelming in the most meaningful way. I cried several times before we even reached the Strip. Hearing people share their stories touched me deeply because of what I have personally experienced and what my family has gone through.

Once we reached Fremont Street, we hit the ground running. We encountered several people who needed detox resources and continued checking on one person who clearly needed help. In the middle of everything, we heard a woman frantically yelling for help inside a parking garage.

Last night, we helped save a life using four doses of Narcan that had been prepared and provided by the community.

This was such a powerful and beautiful experience. It reminded me why community outreach, education, and access to Narcan are so important. I will never forget this night, and I cannot wait to volunteer again next year. ❤️#narcanatnight2026 #narcansaveslives #firstresponders #overdoseprevention taken in Fremont Street Experience by @loveash.ps

Today marks 25 years since the attack on the World Trade Center. I had no idea my ride along would fall on September 11 until a few days beforehand, which made the experience even more meaningful. Of course, I came bearing gifts to show my appreciation. ❤️

I had the honor of spending the day with the Clark County Fire Department Station 22 Fire and Rescue Team. We also walked the stairs in honor of the courageous firefighters and first responders who made the ultimate sacrifice on September 11.

The calls we went on were definitely an experience, and seeing the community show so much love and appreciation for the department was amazing. I am incredibly grateful to everyone at Station 22 for welcoming me, teaching me, and allowing me to experience what they do every day.

And I must add, these gentlemen definitely know how to cook! 😂 This is an experience I will never forget. ❤️🚒🇺🇸 taken in Las Vegas Nevada by @loveash.ps

I’m so grateful I met these amazing runners and finally pushed myself to start joining run clubs. 🥹🏃🏽‍♀️❤️

For the past several years, so much of my life has been focused on nursing school, studying, working, and navigating the physical pain that comes with endometriosis and fibroids. Somewhere along the way, being physically active stopped being a priority.

Now I’m finding my way back to myself physically, one run, one walk, and one challenge at a time.

I couldn’t run the entire time, but I SHOWED UP. And sometimes showing up is the hardest part. I had people beside me throughout the entire run, encouraging me, coaching me, pushing me, and reminding me that I could keep going. That support meant more to me than they probably realize.

I’m just so grateful for this community and this new chapter of becoming active again. I’m not worried about being the fastest or running the entire distance yet. I’m proud that I started. ❤️

Here’s to getting stronger, showing up, and doing a little more each time. 🏃🏽‍♀️✨ by @loveash.ps

My preferred kind of break 😂

When life gets stressful, I don’t always want to sit still. I need to MOVE. Get outside. Try something new. Work out. Explore. Laugh. Feel alive again.

A little adventure, fresh air, movement, and fun will reset me every single time. ✈️🏃🏽‍♀️🌴🏋🏽‍♀️✨

Apparently my version of “rest” is just doing something completely different 😂  #activelifestyle #outdoorgirl♥️ #fitnessjourney #lasvegaslifestyle taken in Las Vegas, Nevada by @loveash.ps

Happy Birthday to me 🎂✈️🤍

Another trip around the sun, so I decided to spend it doing something I’ve always wanted to do… FLY! 🛩️

I’m so grateful that I finally got to experience something that has been on my list for such a long time. There’s something special about actually doing the things you’ve dreamed about instead of just talking about them.

Will I take this further and actually pursue aviation? 👀✈️ We’ll see… but for now, I’m just grateful for the experience, the memories, and another year of being able to explore everything life has to offer.

Here’s to another year of trying new things, chasing dreams, and seeing just how far I can go. 🥂✨ #aviations #lasvegasaviation #studentlife #pilottraining taken in Henderson, Nevada by @loveash.ps

I love a good adventure. 🤍

Between working so much and constantly being on the go, getting outside is exactly what I needed. Riding ATVs with my friends, laughing, getting a little dusty, and just enjoying the moment was so refreshing.

Sometimes the best reset isn’t a vacation. It’s simply stepping away from the routine, feeling the sun on your face, and reminding yourself there’s a whole world outside of work.

More moments like this. 🏔️✨ taken in Las Vegas, Nevada by @loveash.ps

The first run club that I have attended in Las Vegas. I did not finish as I lost everyone, but I must say I had an amazing time and I meant amazing people. I will be back! taken in Downtown Las Vegas by @loveash.ps

One thing about me is that I’ll always start over to build the life I want.

The journey through nursing challenged me in ways I never expected. There were moments I wanted to quit, moments I questioned myself, and moments I had to begin again. But every challenge taught me something.

Cheers to another journey, another opportunity to learn, grow, and see what I’m capable of. 🤍
