In this episode, Dr. Eve Harrison joins the discussion to explore critical issues in veterinary medicine, particularly the black-and-white mindset and hierarchical thinking that contribute to anxiety, depression, and burnout in the profession. Dr. Eve shares her powerful Instagram post that sparked the conversation and discusses how opening a mobile veterinary practice allowed her to break free from clinical hierarchies and to embrace a more holistic approach where she's able to practice medicine and connect with her clients in a way that feels fulfilling. The conversation delves into the importance of authenticity, vulnerability, nervous system regulation, and embracing the color and endless possibilities in veterinary medicine, emphasizing the need to reconnect with oneself to provide better care for patients and clients. Towards the end of the episode, they discuss how being open to exploring things like spirituality, psilocybin ceremonies, and hypnosis have helped them to release old black and white thought patterns. The episode also highlights Dr. Eve's work in supporting veterinarians through her House Call Vet Academy and an upcoming virtual conference.

In this episode of 'Life Boost with Amelia' podcast, Dr. Amelia hosts Doctor Guss, a wildlife veterinarian from Mexico. They explore the intersection of personal development and animal behavior, highlighting how animals can serve as a source of strength during challenging times. Dr. Guss shares his inspiring journey through personal adversity, including his harrowing experience of wrongful imprisonment, and how he rebuilt his life by integrating lessons from animal behavior into personal development. They discuss key principles such as bravery, acceptance, and the importance of writing to process emotions. The episode encourages listeners to break free from societal norms and connect with their inner selves by drawing inspiration from the natural world.

Dr. Guss wears many hats and divides his days in three - helping animals, people and his personal projects. He is a wildlife veterinarian, Thanatologist, and an author currently finishing his third book. His personal touch is that he uses animal characteristics to talk about personal development and business to create awareness about conservation. And he is currently partnering with a consultant company to develop a wildlife conservation platform that will help to fight against social media misinformation while also raising money and linking institutions, experts, and the public. He says he is like geese, (flying, walking, climbing, swimming, and scuba diving).

In this episode of the Life Boost with Amelia podcast, Dr. Amelia tackles the critical issue of burnout and high suicide rates in the veterinary profession. She advocates for adopting a 'fear-free' approach in humans, similar to the method used for pets, to be proactive in fostering a more sustainable profession so that veterinary medicine can lead by example and thrive. 

The episode explores various nervous system states (fight, flight, freeze/shut down, and fawn) and discusses how veterinary medicine's current approach ignores and in some cases even selects and rewards for these characteristics and patterns that's aren't sustainable so that we are missing the red flags before burnout and suicide. She highlights how recognizing the signs of these nervous system states helps to bring unconscious patterns and limiting beliefs into conscious awareness so that we have the power to change them and problem-solve.

By shifting out of survival modes like flight, fight, fawn, and shutdown, and recognizing societal pressures to push harder, the episode advocates for normalizing and unshaming feelings of defeat, imposter syndrome, and overwhelm. The discussion promotes creating supportive environments and safe spaces for open conversations about mental and physical health and how to foster a thriving and sustainable veterinary career.

I have been meaning to make this episode about gut health for 2 years and it finally happened. 🙌🏻 I recently watched the new Netflix Documentary "Hack Your Health: Secrets of the Gut" and that was the motivation I needed to re-share an Instagram live that I did a couple of years ago that is packed with info that is going to surprise you when it comes to gut health. 

The reality is that most people are pretty hush hush when it comes to bathroom habits, which means most people don't even know if their normal is actually healthy. If we don't talk about signs of poor gut health, then how can we fix it? The best part about gut health is that everything you do either positively or negatively impacts your gut. When you know how to support your gut, you become empowered to create huge positive change in your life when it comes to your metabolism, cravings, hormones, immune system, energy, anxiety, depression, blood sugar regulation, digestion, and even your genes! 

What are signs of an unhealthy gut? What causes an unhealthy gut? What is optimal for bathroom habits? If you have an imbalanced gut (dysbiosis), how can you bring it back into balance?  How do you make changes that actually stick instead of watching a documentary or listening to a podcast, being excited for a week, and then going back to normal? We cover all of that in this podcast episode!

If you've watched the Netflix documentary, this episode has lots of new information that wasn't covered in that show. One of the things that I loved the most about that documentary is that they talked about the importance of all 3 Life Boost B's: Belly, Brain, and Blood sugar instead of only talking about the gut. Everything is connected and they totally got that right! They also highlighted why our current norm is leading to rising rates of obesity, mental health issues, and chronic diseases which is so aligned with my message that if you want to feel good, you really have to break the norm. 

If you enjoy this episode and find it helpful, please share it with someone you love or leave a review. If you write a review, let me know and I'll send you a guided mental rehearsal as a thank you (the same technique elite athletes, CEOs, top surgeons, etc use to improve performance).

We’re doing something new today! Last month, I did a major update to my Game Changer and added an audio option to each lesson so that you have the option to listen to your daily 10-15 minutes lesson during your commute, while going for a walk, or while washing dishes or folding laundry instead of having to sit down and read. My goal is to make this journey as easy as possible for you. 

Since I now have the audio, this is a glimpse of one of the first lessons in the Game Changer that teaches a key concept if you’re wanting to make healthy changes but keep promising yourself you’ll start tomorrow or if you’re making healthy changes but they feel hard and unsustainable. There are really 3 Wellness Levels, but our world acts like here are only 2 and both of those are pretty unappealing and uncomfortable. After listening to this episode, let me know which one sounds most familiar to you!

P.s. Check out "Life Boost with Amelia" podcast Episode 57: Unleashing Your Inner Unstoppable Bad-Ass. Around minute 28 there's an exercise with a guided mental rehearsal/hypnosis to help you to start unchaining the things that have been holding you back.

In this episode, Dr. Stacey Cordivano shares her story of experiencing and recovering from burnout. As a solo ambulatory equine veterinarian and mom with two kids under the age of 3, she knew something had to change when she found herself driving to the hospital to have her appendix out after cooking Thanksgiving dinner.  Just a couple of months earlier, she had been diagnosed with Lyme disease and experienced the emotional trauma of needing to wean her second child from nursing early. Despite making some changes, a year later she found herself asking, "What am I doing? Am I really making a difference?". That's when she started to discover personal development podcasts which introduced her to a whole new world that helped her start her journey of recovering from burnout.

Now, in addition to being a practice owner, equine vet, and mother, she is the host of the podcast, The Whole Veterinarian, where she has conversations with out-of-the-box thinkers who share new ideas on ways veterinarians can add more joy to their life to feel whole again. In this episode, she shares tips that have helped her to recover from burnout and she shares her perspective as a practice owner for what helps to create a "unicorn veterinary hospital" - a hospital where employees feel lucky to work at their practice because they're supported, respected, and valued so that they can provide veterinary care in a way that feels good and still have energy left at the end of the day to be a human outside of vet med.

Stacey is such a cool person, and I know you're going to get so much out of this conversation!

Any time I tell someone outside of the veterinary profession about the high burnout and suicide rate, they're surprised. And that's totally understandable - from the outside being a vet seems like a really fun gig. We get to see puppies and kittens, after all! But there is a darker side of vet med that's important to talk about in order for it to change. Once someone learns about the high burnout and suicide rate, their next question is WHY. This podcast episode dives into the root issues of what leads to burnout in the veterinary profession AND discusses solutions to each of those including how veterinary professionals and pet owners can help to be a part of positive change.

This episode is for animal lovers, pet owners, and veterinary professionals. Please share it to help raise awareness about what each of us can do to be a part of creating positive change.
