S3 EP 137: Mary P. Fisher, Author of The Other Side of Nursing - Lessons I Learned from my Patients
Join the conversation, text us now.
Hello Happy People,
Mary Paula Fisher has had an extensive career in healthcare as a registered nurse. While her career was mainly focused on critical care and ICU nursing, Mary also worked with visiting nurses, hospice, and end-of-life care. These experiences led her to broaden her skill set beyond the basic medical training provided through mainstream programs. She was able to explore the benefits of more holistic healing techniques.
Mary became an Usui Reiki Master Teacher after attending the Four Winds Society, School of Energy Healing. Since 2013, Mary has been able to utilize her new mastery to provide health education and healing programs, teaching various health and well-being techniques to corporate clients, healthcare employees, and interested individuals. Throughout her nursing career, Mary has had many memorable encounters with the patients in her care.
Mary started her book project around 2015 while she was still working as a nurse. Due to her demanding career, she was not able to devote significant time to her writing. Once she retired from nursing in May of 2023, she shifted her focus to her writing career and to finishing her memoir.
Mary credits advice she got from individuals she met through the Cape Cod Writers Groups for influencing her decision to go the independent publishing route instead of seeking a traditional publisher. Besides providing her with beneficial career advice, the group hosted a five-day writers conference where Mary connected with another member of the group who became her mentor and great friend.
