These are the exact tools, snacks, and fitness gear I use and love as a busy nurse. Some links are affiliate links — which means I earn a small commission if you buy through them (at no extra cost to you!).

Hoka Bondi 8
These are my go-to shoes for long hospital shifts. The cushioning is next-level — my feet and knees feel so much better after 12 hours on the floor. If you’re on your feet all day, these are worth every penny.

Dymatize Protein Powder
Protein + energy? Yes, please! This gives me 25g of protein, 95mg of caffeine (like a small coffee), and zero added sugar — all for just 120 calories. It’s clean, tastes great, and powers me through early mornings or post-shift workouts.

Stanley 40 oz Tumbler with Handle
Hydration is non-negotiable during a 12-hour shift, and this is the only tumbler that actually keeps my water cold all day. I love the handle and the slim base that fits in my car cupholder.
