051: Looking Back At 2018 And Forward To The Future w/ Kelsey Cates

Looking back on a full year of Podcast A Vet (PAV), I am so thrilled by the response to the podcast and the community that has grown around it. In the spirit of the holiday, today I am reflecting on past episodes and looking to the future of PAV. I am joined by Kelsey Cates, Director of Operations for PAV and a previous interviewee. She is reflecting on joining me at AVMA, how PAV has grown over the past year, and the core values we try and instill through the show. PAV would not be possible without the listeners, so this episode is dedicated to all of you. We love our community and are thrilled at the opportunity to bring people closer together through our stories. What has been your favorite episode?
