My Story
About me
Hi, I’m Susie… but around here, everyone calls me Nurse Nonni.
After more than 40 years as a nurse, a mom, and now a Nonni, I’ve collected more than medical knowledge. I’ve collected stories. Life lessons. Heartbreaks. Moments that made me laugh until I cried, and others that reminded me just how precious life really is.
People Often Ask Where I learned So Much About Health.
Some of it came from nursing school and textbooks. That’s where every nurse begins. But the lessons that changed me the most didn’t come from a classroom. They came from caring for thousands of people over four decades. They came from sitting beside hospital beds at two in the morning. They came from holding someone’s hand during the hardest day of their life.
And they came from years of working private duty with families who had access to some of the best physicians, functional medicine practitioners, nutrition experts, private chefs, and wellness professionals in the country.
I had a front-row seat.
I watched what worked.
I watched what didn’t.
I asked questions.
I listened.
And I learned.
Over time, I realized that some of the most valuable lessons about living well aren’t found in a medical textbook. They’re learned through experience… through conversations… through mistakes… and through simply paying attention.
That’s what this website is about.
Not perfection.
Not pretending to have all the answers.
Just sharing the things I’ve learned along the way in the hope that they make your own journey a little healthier, a little happier, and a little more meaningful.
So whether you’re here looking for practical health tips, a good laugh, a little encouragement, or just someone who understands that life can be wonderfully messy…
Welcome.
I’m glad you stopped by.
Pull up a chair.
Stay awhile.
Susie aka Nurse Nonni 💕
