Back to Basics: Remembering Your Why
In this course, you’ll learn how to reconnect with the deeper purpose that first brought you into healthcare and rediscover what truly matters to you as a caregiver. Through guided reflection, grounding exercises, and simple mindset tools, you’ll explore your core values, strengths, and motivations, and understand how a clear sense of purpose can protect against burnout and support long-term resilience. You’ll also learn how to build sustainable habits that keep you centered and aligned with your “why,” helping you bring renewed energy, clarity, and meaning into every patient interaction and every shift.

Your instructor
Teri Dart, MSN-Ed, RN, CEN, is a nurse educator and clinical leader with over 25 years in emergency nursing, leadership, and continuing education. I’ve seen how the pace and pressure of healthcare can blur the purpose that brought us here, and I’m passionate about helping nurses return to the basics—clarity, compassion, and connection to their “why.”
As the founder of CEU Escape, I create learning experiences that pair evidence-based practice with reflection, storytelling, and practical self-care. My teaching is grounded, real-world, and focused on tools you can use right away to reduce stress, communicate with presence, and sustain the kind of nursing you’re proud of—so you leave centered, capable, and connected to why you chose this work.
