Anna holds a BS, is an RVT and a LVT and has worked in veterinary nursing for over 20 years.&amp;nbsp; Her varied background demonstrates all that is possible in a career such as veterinary nursing.&amp;nbsp; We talk about all the things in this episode: -the impact of compassion fatigue and burnout on vet techs -the need for strong women leaders in veterinary nursing -how compassion fatigue impacts the clinical tech vs. the lab animal technician -career paths -how she has learned to take care of herself to be sustainable in this field I mentioned a Ted Talk I recently watched that highlights how veterinarians (and vet med) infiltrates all aspects of life. You can check that out here.&amp;nbsp; Also, registration for my 6-month group coaching program for women veterinarians, Living a Life You Love is open until 9/30/22.
