As a nurse you are likely a woman. And as a woman you may be a mother. And as a mother you may running a household and raising children alone.
In the brief video below and in her detailed report, A Woman’s Nation Pushes Back from the Brink, Maria Shriver courageously uncovers the quite desperation of many working women who do what they do for money but for the love of something other than money!
Many Nurses can learn from this expose about compelling statistics, the issues, contributing factors and encouragement found in the related reports. This is why Nurses Moving Forward encourages innovation in nurses. Provide for yourself and your family by innovating your life. Balancing your time for self and family and work. It may be through establishing multiple streams of income, finding a job that allows you to live closer to family for support, making personal-value-based decisions rather than economy or headline based or embarking upon an endeavor through which you express your heartfelt purpose for your actualization and to help others. The quote, “Do what you love and the money will come.” is an enticing challenge today for a Nurse moving forward.
The video below is from The Shriver Report.
A Woman’s Nation Pushes Back from the Brinkk will examine the rates of financial insecurity among American women and the children who depend on them, investigate the impact of it on our nation’s institutions and economic future, and promote modern solutions to help women strengthen their financial status.

As a result, our policy landscape remains stuck in an idealized past, where the typical family was composed of a married-for-life couple with a full-time breadwinner and full-time homemaker who raised the children herself.
This report contemplates what a new America should look like after we finally embrace this important new dynamic in our lives and the changes in our homes and businesses it has caused. It examines every institution, including:
