From Burnout to Living Life to the Full - Companion Animal Veterinarian - Dr Jade Hackney - pt 2 - ep108

Paws Claws & Wet Noses | Veterinary Podcast

This is the second in the multi part series where Companion Animal Veterinarian Dr Jade Hackney shares her path to living life to the full as a healthy and loving, long-term life partner and fully engaged veterinarian.
Dr Jade talks about:

• the moment she and her life partner realised they no longer wanted to work fulltime in jobs they didn't enjoy to pay someone else's mortgage;
• their journey to owning their own home in their 30s - mortgage-free;
• what 'living life to the full' means to Jade;
• living the dream with 'pinch yourself moments' each day;
• the freedom available to you when you start something with a Beginner's Mind and how knowing how something should be done can be an impediment;
• living the WWOOF lifestyle for a while;
• how vet clinics can employ part timers and be better off for it;
• how it's easier to blame others, but that's not what being emotionally intelligent is;
• how it's important - critical! - to focus only on what you can control - your own thoughts and feelings - and not worry about what you can't - other people's thoughts or feelings.

Listen to the first part of the conversation - episode 107.
