This week's episode was a special request after a recent conversation with an incredible up and coming veterinary student. While not an immediate reaction to recent saddening events within the profession this is a topic we need to talk about more. Within vet schools there has been recent push to encourage students to prioritize wellbeing. While this is positive, it is always met with the disparity to what vet students are actually experiencing. They say "eat well. Take time for yourselves. Get enough sleep." but don't provide a practical pathway for students to integrate this into their daily lives. This is a disparity we need to address on multiple levels. In this episode I breakdown where I've seen this disparity occur and how we as a profession can better prepare our future veterinarians to care for and prioritize their wellbeing, and it starts with mindset. At the end of this episode I switch gears to talk about the social app craze that is Clubhouse and why I am so incredibly excited for it. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/thatvet-life/message
