Kaarin Staalsen O'Hara: 我是一名注册护士，在产前病房工作了四年，主要负责高危妊娠护理。护理工作虽然有意义，但长期夜班让我身心俱疲，最终导致职业倦怠。为了寻求改变，我开始在TikTok上分享我的DIY和室内设计作品，没想到意外走红。起初我只是想打发时间，没想到创作能带给我如此多的快乐和满足感。从最初的缝纫和编织，到后来的室内设计，我的创作内容不断丰富，也吸引了越来越多的粉丝。虽然转型过程中也遇到过质疑和网络暴力，但我始终坚持自我，相信自己的价值。现在，我已经辞去护士工作，成为一名全职DIY内容创作者，并建立了自己的壁纸品牌。这段转型之路虽然充满挑战，但也让我更加了解自己，并找到了新的方向和满足感。
Nurse John: 作为一名护士，我非常理解Kaarin的经历。护理工作虽然崇高，但压力巨大，很容易导致倦怠。Kaarin的转型之路给了我很多启发，也让我看到护士除了在医院工作之外，还有很多其他的发展可能。她的成功证明了，只要你勇敢追寻自己的梦想，并坚持不懈，就能找到属于自己的幸福和价值。同时，我也想提醒大家，无论你从事什么职业，都要关注自身身心健康，及时调整，找到适合自己的生活方式。
