Rita Rogers co.

I’ve been going ‘against the grain’ for a long time…

…and in a highly indoctrinated field, healthcare.  Rita is a long time nurse, working 15+ years in a Cardiovascular ICU. Most of these years were spent in a charge nurse role, managing hemodynamics post open heart, running ECMO, and managing patient “throughput.”

In 2021 I was issued an “involuntary resignation” (aka fired quietly) for practicing critical thinking and personal choice surrounding the covid ‘vaccine’ and agenda. Hospital management would call it “non-compliance.”

I have been interested in government overreach and corruption, corruption in medicine, natural wellness, personal responsibility and discussions around freedom, liberty, limited government and living life on the road less traveled since my mid twenties. This led to many conversations in my “real life” which bled over to social media slowly over the years.

Then, in 2020 the floodgates opened.

The many years of going my own way with health & nutrition coupled with paying attention to government & NGO agendas (things that seemed odd to almost everyone around me) granted the foresight to set aside emotion, dissect media narratives, accurately observe, assess, advocate & share information.

Though I ultimately lost my 15 year nursing career in the fall of 2021, I have peace knowing I put what was right and true ahead of self preservation and financial stability. God equipped me with the boldness to stand firm for myself, my children and on behalf of others who didn’t feel they could.

Recognizing so much of what we face boils down to a lack of foundational values – a backbone to stand up for them and specifically a misalignment of priorities within Christian circles, the Boom Clap podcast was born.

I live a simple homeschool, ‘homemade’, farm life in Central Illinois with my husband, Levi, two daughters & son.

Within a month of losing my nursing career, at 20 weeks pregnant, we experienced the loss of our first son. This changed me and shapes the tone of the content you see here. I still have fire for justice and truth but loss softened me.

Through it, I’ve gained the wisdom to consistently remind myself to reassess the line between issues that are important and issues of eternal importance: faith, family and intentionally raising the children God has entrusted to me.

I’m glad you’re here.
