Burnout-Free Me

Affect labeling is one of my favorite tools to use.

It's simple. It's easy. And it's so darn powerful!

This week I'm sharing some of the science behind affect labeling and why it works. We'll also cover a simple 3 Step Process that you can use to teach yourself how to do this.

If you want to attract future veterinary professionals to the industry, then you need to be willing to make changes that invite them in.

This week we are discussing the importance of veterinary leadership and how these roles simply cannot just be enjoyed for the privileges and authority that they bring. 

If you are in a leadership position within our industry, you have a responsibility to make changes to the system that reflect the needs and desires of the incoming veterinarians, technicians, and other professionals whose future careers are at stake.

You are accountable for what you choose to do with your leadership and what you fail to do with it.

It's well past the time to offer more than just appreciation pizza and free coffee in the breakroom. It's time to step up and to make real change.

Topics covered:

• Self-responsibility for improvement in all veterinary professionals

This week we discuss the 2 main types of identity and how they are tied to the stories we tell about ourselves AND to our nervous system patterns.

And we discuss how to separate your nervous system patterns from your identity because...

You are not your survival pattern!

Your survival pattern is just an adaptation to help you cope in life. And did you know, that your survival pattern can actually block you from connecting with your true identity and creating a stress-free life? 🤯

Join me this week to learn how and why this happens. And what to do about it!

And if you haven't yet taken the values assessment test, the link is below. ⬇️

Do you know your core identity? The values that make you you?

When you describe yourself to other people, do you tell them what you do? Or do you tell them who you really are?

Sometimes it can be tricky to separate ourselves and our identity from our labels or the roles we play in this life.

But it's part of the work required to live a stress-free life.

This week we explore the difference between identity and roles, and I invite you to take a values assessment test to start learning more about your true self.

Your journey to self-connection is going to be as amazing as your are.
