This week, we're diving into a fascinating aspect of human psychology and medicine: the placebo and nocebo effects.

You probably already know that these phenomena have a remarkable influence on our minds and our bodies' responses to treatment, whether real or perceived.

But did you know... they ALSO affect our MINDSET and our ability to create lasting positive changes in our lives?

Come learn how these two phenomena can influence your life trajectory, your outcomes and results, and even your sleep!

This week we are talking about burnout. Specifically the type of burnout we experience from the hidden messages that we receive as veterinarians. 

Internalized messages like we have to save every pet. We cannot turn a client away. It is my job to make sure that every animal is seen. To be a good doctor, I need to place the needs of everyone else and every animal out there above the needs of myself. To be valuable and worthy I need to say yes when I really want and in some cases need to say no.

Often these ideas are presented to us as being noble and good. And we are awarded these metaphorical "Badges of Honor" for coming in when we're sick. For working when we have a family emergency. For always saying yes. For constantly staying late. And even for accepting salaries and wages that do not support our lives.

But beside these metaphorical badges - what do we actually have to show for all our sacrifice?

Because the truth is, at the end of our lives, there is no badge of honor for being burned out.

Our final Poo Poo Parade participant is… Hope! 💩🎈

In this week's episode of the Daring DVM Podcast we are examining our Poo Poo Parade Participant #3 - Blame.

The sneaky part about blame is that it feels really good in the moment to transfer responsibility away from yourself to something external, like another person or the situation that you're in.

It can also feel good to transfer the responsibility of your experience to something that happened in the past. And to make something else or someone else carry the burden of how you feel for something that happened.

But this is actually one of the worst things that you can do to yourself!

Because when you assign responsibility to something external to you, you are giving all of your power away.

Join Dr. Amy this week as we discuss:

• The difference between placing blame and assigning responsibility.

This week we’re continuing our Poo Poo Parade and discussing why indifference is one of your biggest self-sabotagers. 💩🎈

Many of us slip into a state of indifference without even noticing it. And once we are there, we struggle to break the cycle and to get unstuck!

In this episode I’ll cover the symptoms of indifference.

• Why indifference sabotages your desires.

As we move through the month of February, we are starting a 4 part series on the sneaky, often overlooked emotions that keep us stuck. 

They often wear the disguises of other emotions. 🥸

Or they pretend to be useful and necessary when they are not. 🤥

And if you don't know they are creeping in the background, it can be very difficult to get yourself unstuck and to create the change that you want to see in your own life.

To kick-off our Poo Poo Parade, we are going to start with one of the most detrimental emotions that we can experience - Self-Pity!

It’s something that most of us have felt, probably more than once in our lives.

BUT

• Self-pity is self-sabotage!

And sadly, most of the time, we don’t even know that we’re indulging in this useless emotion. 

So this week I’m discussing how you can dramatically improve your life by kicking the habit of feeling sorry for yourself.

Last week we talked about becoming deliberate in your life, instead of just existing by default.

And this week I want to give you some real-life examples of what this actually looks like.

Because when we start to see that it is possible for others, we open the door to believing that change is also possible for us.

So join me for some inspiration and to lean into possibility!
