This article examines my phases of holistic learning concerning how I became a nurse, using story presented in a personal narrative style. I have incorporated my own stories to elaborate my journey. First, my early life in the East End of London and how this influenced my becoming a nurse. Second, I give an account of my journey through practice, where I examine how I developed my own learning from professional practice, drawing on some personal illustrations presented as stories. I have set out to explore how my stories of practice have influenced my progress, and I present a personal account of such learning in general from the lens of a nurse educator.
