Ep. 40: "The Dream Is Free; Hustle Sold Separately" - Corporate DF, Women In Vet Leadership, and Taking Back Our Profession: Meet Dr. Tosha Starke
Dr. Tosha Starke is a veterinarian and businesswoman in Virginia who is making waves in the veterinary community through her innovative businesses and advocacy. She founded All Four Paws Veterinary Relief in 2013 as a way to balance her passions of being a veterinarian and a mom.
In 2021, while general practices and emergency clinics everywhere were overloaded with appointments and still hemorrhaging staff, Dr. Starke founded Vets To Pets Mobile Veterinary Service to alleviate some of the strain on local clinics while also making veterinary care more accessible to her community.
Dr. Starke is a co-host on the Real Talk Unleashed Veterinary podcast that is dedicated to highlighting the issues in our industry and working towards meaningful change. In addition, she also mentors veterinary students at her alma mater, Virginia-Maryland College of Veterinary Medicine, and serves on the board of several state veterinary associations.
Topics covered in this episode:
- Corporate dumpster fire
- Balancing parenthood and entrepreneurship
