Amanda Redhead

Mother, Nurse, Warrior for Love

Amanda is the nurse behind The Zen RN. By merging her loves of nursing and writing, she hopes to be able to reach more people than she can as a bedside nurse. She has written about such painful experiences as being a survivor of sexual assault and her history of painful depressive episodes to remind others that they are not alone in their struggles. A patient once introduced her as a "Nurse Warrior" and she has adopted that title as a way of life.
