Hi friends,
I’m so glad you’re here.
For those of you I haven’t met yet — my name is Kelsey Tainsh. I’m a motivational speaker, para-snowboarder, and someone who’s spent a lot of time on both sides of the hospital bed. As a teenager, I faced a brain tumor, a stroke, and years of rehab that changed my life forever. Since then, I’ve built my career sharing stories and lessons about resilience, perspective, and the patient experience.
But here’s the real reason I’m writing to you: healthcare professionals like you have changed my life.
The compassion of nurses, therapists, doctors, and staff has shaped who I am today. And now, I want to give something back.
This newsletter and blog will arrive each week, and here’s what you can expect:
- Patient Experience Perspectives — insights from someone who has lived the healthcare journey from the inside out.
- Relevant Articles & Resources — quick links to research, podcasts, or ideas you can use right away.
- Stories & Reflections — from my journey as a patient, athlete, and speaker, always tied back to lessons for healthcare.
- Resilience & Self-care Tools — simple practices to help during stressful weeks.
- Short Videos — a few minutes of encouragement you can watch on your break.
- Actionable Takeaways — one small idea you can carry into your next shift.
My goal is simple: to provide encouragement, perspective, and gratitude in the middle of your busy week — and to connect you with resources that truly matter in healthcare today.
Thank you for the work you do — not just for patients like me, but for the countless people whose lives you impact every single day. I see you, I appreciate you, and I can’t wait to walk through this journey together.
With gratitude,
Kelsey
