Show Notes

Vet Med is an interesting career.


Often a Love / Hate relationship.


Spectacularly rewarding, and crushingly devastating all at the same time.


The events that occur in veterinary medicine are just part of the job.


The way that we respond to the events, is optional.


OPTIONAL.


That’s really hard to see when a client is blasting us on social media, or a six-month-old puppy dies during a routine spay.


Frustration, Fear, and Sadness are appropriate emotional responses… 


But then we take it too far…


We make it personal.


We tie up those events, and our resultant emotions, with our personal professional abilities and individual self-worth.


Friends, those things are not connected.


Unhappy clients and poor patient outcomes often steal our joy, but that an optional consequence.
