“Mushrooms are having their moment!” 🍄 - Dr. Robert J. Silver

Enjoying this legend’s back-to-back lectures today at VMX - his first was already packed and no doubt the rest will be too!

We had so much fun during our “60 Secs with Vets & Techs” segment yesterday for The Secret Lives of Vets podcast!! 🎙️

It was lovely of him to take the time amongst his busy schedule. As with every guest so far, we well exceeded the “60 Secs”! 😂

Can’t wait for everyone to see which vets/techs have been interviewed here at VMX (next stop will be WVC!). And looking forward to doing full-length interviews with many of them in the upcoming months for the podcast! 🩺

If you aren’t already familiar with Dr. Rob Silver, he is known as THE expert on all things in the veterinary botanical realm, especially mushrooms! 🏥 🍄‍🟫 Hence being the Past-President of the American College of Vet. Botanical Medicine and Vet. Botanical Medical Association. 🌱

Anyone else as grateful as I am that the sun finally emerged here in Orlando?! 💛

We don’t discriminate here. 🫶 And no topic is too taboo. 🤫 📖

Do you remember this article from last year that outright villainized veterinarians? 🙄

Well, we’re STILL not over it.

My friend said “that’s old news” since it was published last year.

But, it’s NOT - the kind of rhetoric in this article STILL exists and fuels:

💔 burnout and compassion fatigue

🤬 incites bullying from clients

…and, ultimately, contributes to having one of THE highest su***de rates of any profession.

Once again, the media hijacked our narrative by only showing ONE side - so we’re going to break it down on the podcast and give OUR side of the story. 🥳 🐾 (spoiler alert: most vets I know are drowning in university debt)

To celebrate World Mental Health Day, our 1st full length episode for TSLV will be released at midnight tonight, LA time (on Spotify & Apple Podcasts etc 🤫)

Often our loved ones have no idea what a difference these can make - so go ahead and share with them! 😸

🚨 DID YOU KNOW…women are WAY more likely to go undiagnosed with ADHD than men because they may exhibit the “Inattentive” form of ADHD? 😬

Not to mention, societally, women are expected to behave more “prim & proper” whereas.. “boys will be boys!” 🤷🏻‍♀️ So, we end up flying under the radar.

But, in vet med, having ADHD (whether female OR male) means invisible STRUGGLES; overwhelm, anxiety, burnout, masking, and chronic self-doubt - disguised as perfectionism, or manifesting as Imposter Syndrome. 🫠

🔥 October is ADHD Awareness Month! So, it’s time to get vulnerable and talk about ADHD here on The Secret Lives of Vets (TSLV) podcast.

There are too many important topics to cover, so we’re launching the TSLV: ADHD Series 🧠💫

We’ll be diving into EVERYTHING relevant to ADHD, including:

🔥 getting diagnosed as an adult

💊 to medicate or NOT to medicate?

💪 how to leverage your ADHD strengths, instead of seeing it as a curse

👌 Perfectionism and Imposter Syndrome

⏰ Time Blindness and how to manage

💞 relationships tips when you have ADHD

🔥 how to avoid burnout/overwhelming situations

💔 terms like “rejection sensitivity dysphoria”

🎓 vet school chaos vs dealing w clinical life

PLUS: real convos with psychologists and certified ADHD coaches, as well as fellow vets with ADHD who are surviving & thriving! 💪

Love this sentiment!🫶👏❤️‍🔥

There is far too often a predominance of bullying that goes on in the veterinary workplace - would you agree/disagree?🤔

We each need to hold ourselves accountable for promoting a positive environment that ENCOURAGES, not belittles or disparages, those who are still learning, even if they make mistakes.🫶

It is unacceptable that a toxic hospital culture is considered the NORM in the veterinary world.☠️ Understandably, this is a significant contributing factor in the mental health struggles our profession suffers from.

I have always tried to remind myself to be the mentor that I wish I’d had as a newbie vet.🙏 Take someone under your wing, stick up for them if you witness other staff bullying them, and teach them with compassion & patience.💞 We can transform the status quo in vet med!
