Veterinary surgeon-turned-executive coach Dr. Libby Kemkaran-Thompson joins host Jack Peploe to unpack the neuroscience behind behaviour, stress and fulfilment at work. We explore why 95% of what we do is driven by the subconscious, how to interrupt fight-or-flight in the consult room and beyond, and why great leadership manages energy as well as output. Libby introduces her “Big Cat Brain” model (Cheetah, Tiger, Lion, Leopard) to help teams communicate, align and thrive. We also tackle common mindset traps - including perfectionism and people-pleasing - and practical habits for building resilient, happy veterinary teams. If you lead a practice or want to enjoy your career more, this is your playbook.
