#141 The (Limiting) Stories We Tell About VetMed & Life


Listen Later


I'm wondering... what's the story you tell about your life as a veterinary professional?

What I mean is, what are the first things that come to mind when you think about the work day ahead, or life in general as part of the veterinary profession?

It may seem like a strange question, but the answer is life-altering... literally!

See, we all live our lives through the lens of stories...

Stories about our identities...

Stories about our performance, value and worth...

Stories about our careers...

Stories about past events...

Stories about future possibilities (and impossibilities)... 

When those stories are negative then we keep creating and engaging in negative experiences for ourselves.

Unfortunately, "negative" is the hardwired view most of us have of the world. It's a hold-over survival instinct that actually doesn't help us in the modern world, but absolutely does limit positive experiences!

The good news... we are the writers of our own stories!  

We can change our stories whenever we want, and learning to do so is a life-altering skill!

In this episode I explain more about the impact our stories have, and specifically dig in to how the stories most of us tell about our VetMed careers limit the wellbeing we experience at work, and in our entires lives... and how to stop this pattern!
