About This Podcast

Healthcare doesn’t end when the shift does—and neither do the thoughts that come with it.

Heartbeat Debrief is a podcast for nurses, EMS providers, and healthcare professionals navigating the realities of the job on and off the clock. From high-pressure calls to the moments that linger long after, this space is dedicated to the conversations that don’t make it into textbooks.

Hosted by Devin, a registered nurse with a background in military medicine, EMS, and critical care, the podcast explores mental health, growth, and the weight healthcare workers carry—reminding you that you’re not alone in it.
