How I Got Here
with Kiki Mattress, CRNA
Every nurse has a story. A moment that tested them. A season that almost broke them. A decision that changed everything.
This is where they tell it.
NEW EPISODES EVERY WEDNESDAY
WHAT CHANGED THEM?
Every nurse has a story that shaped them — honest conversations about burnout, loss, failure, resilience, and the journeys that changed everything.
Real stories. Real struggles. Real transformation.
I'M KIKI, BY THE WAY...

And I became a CRNA at 39.
While working full-time. Raising a family. And refusing to believe it was too late.
How I Got Here is a weekly show about the real story behind nurse transformation.
From the moment everything fell apart, to the decision that changed everything, to who they became on the other side — and beyond.
You'll get a no-holds-barred look from real nurses at what it actually takes to go from stuck, burned out, or playing small — to stepping fully into the nurse you were always meant to become.
All to help you go from surviving your nursing career to transforming it — with more purpose, more income, and the courage to go first.
