I'm giving a few talks for VETgirl in 2026 and one of the topics is "Thrive Daily in Vet Med: Micro-Habits That Build Lasting Strength and Resilience". In the talk I'm going to dig into the science as well as provide practical tools for people to use. But I want to hear from YOU on what small actions you have found helpful in getting through the day / week. Please share!

I'm grateful for all the passion and wisdom that people bring to this community. We have members that are just entering the field and others that have been around for 30+ years. Let's pay it forward (as the cool kids say). What advice would you give someone new to vet med in regards to caring for their physical and emotional health? This is a safe space and there are no wrong answers. What works for one might not for another. But having more tools in the toolbox of health can only help! Please share your perspective.
