About this listen

 Happiness in the workplace. We’re all striving to achieve it and for some of us every day can be a challenge. As caregivers, we naturally prioritize care for others and frequently neglect taking care of ourselves. Our mental health eventually suffers which is one reason why so many veterinarians experience emotional distress in the workplace. That’s why veterinary medicine as a profession is working so hard to better understand how to improve workplace well being. The urgency of the moment is particularly acute with studies indicating that veterinarians are much more likely than non-veterinarians to think about suicide and 2.7 times more likely to attempt it. Learning to spot signs of distress and manage the emotional demands of the job are tremendously important.

My conversation with positive psychology strategist, Josh Vaisman is extremely illuminating. He discusses burnout, if work-life balance is real, and how to help cultivate environments in which veterinary professionals can thrive. Whether you’re a veterinary health professional or just want to be happy at your job, this is a conversation you need to hear.
