Education
On this week's episode I had the distinct honor of interviewing and handing the mic to Lindsey Whitlock. Lindsey shares her story as a student in veterinary school at Purdue, as well as her experience as a Black woman in veterinary medicine. Lindsey has such a heart for pre-veterinary students, particularly pre-vet students of color and uses her experiences (good and bad), to help inform and inspire the up and coming generation of veterinarians. This conversation is no exception! Lindsey's insights as to why there's such a lack of representation (A whopping 2% of veterinary medicine is comprised of Black men and women) is thought provoking and her story serves to inspire. It was so gracious for Lindsey to share her experiences with us, but it's an important to remember that she's a whole, incredible human. It was a joy to hear her story, her heart and her thoughts on how we can make veterinary medicine better. You can find Lindsey on Instagram at @Dogtor_Lindsey! And check out her new YouTube Channel Dogtor Lindsey! Hope you enjoyed hearing her story as much as I did! xoxo, Lo
