Nicole LaForest - Badass Women
In this episode I caught up with Nicole LaForest who you might know on Insta as @veterinarytechnicians. Nicole has achieved an incredible amount in a short amount of time. She graduated high school early and in her junior and senior years was already studying college subjects. Not long after finishing high school Nicole had a degree in cognitive psychology, and has since obtained a degree in human healthcare management and associate degrees in veterinary technology and music. Nicole was a qualified veterinary technician managing an ER practice at 22, and at 27 now co-owns an ambulatory practice with her husband, and lectures and campaigns around the world. Nicole's practice is 100% surgery, almost all orthopaedic, with some really cool regenerative medicine and complex soft tissue cases too. If you're not already following her on Insta I highly recommend tuning in to see all the cutting edge surgeries, toys, and cases. Aside from her skills and knowledge Nicole is well known in our industry for her humour and candour. She didn't disappoint on any of those fronts - I hope you enjoy our chat as much as I did.
