For those of you that have listened to my podcast in the past - you may have realised that this episode already sounds a little bit different. In 2020 my life took a dramatic turn. I lived through a traumatic event. My whole family did. I went to ground and just survived. 18 months later, I'm ready to talk about what happened and where it sits in the big picture of our industry at the moment. Not only will I be exploring the vet industry crisis we are currently living in. But I'll also be speaking with some of the brightest brains in the industry to work out how we get through it. We'll look at the big changes that are needed, as well as things we can do as individuals. Thanks for joining me on Radio Vet Nurse Interrupted. This series may be uncomfortable at times - but I really believe the disruption is here and I thank you for joining me on the journey. This episode was sponsored by Vetoquinol Australia.
