People-Pleasing, Burnout & Building a Resilient Mind in Veterinary Medicine

The Veterinary Business Podcast with host Michael Walker

In this episode of the Veterinary Business Podcast, I talk with host Michael Walker about my journey from 24 years in the ER to GP to coaching veterinary professionals on burnout, stress, and building resilient minds.

Join us for a dive deep into the mental health challenges facing veterinarians today, exploring the prevalence of burnout, depression, and secondary traumatic stress in the profession. I discuss people-pleasing and the importance of setting healthy boundaries to maintain well-being. I offer practical strategies and simple, effective neuroscience-backed techniques to help vets rewire their brains for stress resilience in fast-paced clinic environments. Whether you’re a vet, practice owner, or part of the team, this episode offers valuable insights on nurturing mental fitness and creating sustainable careers in veterinary medicine.
