Julie Squires is a Compassion Fatigue Specialist and Certified Life Coach who brings a unique perspective and approach to support the sustained energy and passion of those who work with and for animals in the emotionally challenging fields of veterinary medicine, animal welfare, lab animal research, animal advocacy, and conservation/environmentalism. Her approach is a direct response to a need she's identified over the years, through a rare blend of work experience within the veterinary industry and animal welfare. From her direct experience as a veterinary assistant and hospital administrator to many years working in veterinary sales and training, Julie believes that the costly impact of compassion fatigue – the well-being and sustainability of both the individual and organization is both avoidable and reversible.

Her approach is unique in that she offers insight and tools to achieve maximum emotional health and well-being as a Certified Life Coach. To offset her compassion fatigue Julie loves to spend her time walking her dogs, doing yoga, practicing photography, being in nature, listening to music, and leading tours at Catskill Animal Sanctuary.
