Do you ever feel like your veterinary career is driving you, instead of you driving it?
That sense of being adrift, reacting to whatever the day throws at you, rather than steering your own course?
Youâre performing as good a job as best as you can, managing high caseloads, demanding clients, and long hours, but the end result is burn-out.
If youâre NOT burnt-out, at the very least, youâre approaching it.
In fact a recent study showed that 86% of vets in the US currently suffer from burn-out.
What if I told you that it's possible to design a veterinary career that works for you?
There is.
Itâs one where you have work-life balance.
Itâs one where youâre not burnt-out.
Itâs one where youâre happy.
And youâre going to find out how 2024 is going to be the year you FINALLY take back control of your career and find a life youâve always wanted.

Do you often find yourself overworking and struggling to say 'no' in your veterinary career?
You're not alone.
Many vets face this challenge, but what's really behind our drive to constantly push beyond our limits?
Pain:
You're clocking in extra hours, taking on more than you can handle, and yet, you're left wondering why it's so hard to establish healthy work boundaries.
Weâre our worst enemies.
Intrigue:
Why do you struggle with setting boundaries, and how can establishing them change your professional life?
-
Our guest this week: Dr. Marie Holowaychuk (Reviving Vet Med)
She achieved the definition of success as a vet, becoming a specialist in critical care, before burning out.
She decided that changing her job description would fix the problem, becoming a locum vet as well as doing a list of things that are too long to list here. Sheâs one of those particularly high-achieving vets that is on boards, writes in journals and presents at conferences.
But of course, this inevitably led to further burnout.
It is now her mission to increase awareness about mental health and well-being in the vet profession - through her company Reviving Vet Medicine.
-
In this episode youâll learn:
Why we, as vets, often fall into the trap of perfectionism and overworking.The crucial factors to consider before setting boundaries in your workplace.And Iâll give you one simple challenge you can do today to help identify YOUR boundaries.-
YOUR NEXT STEP: Quick Values Discovery Using AI
As mentioned earlier in the episode, if you want to set boundaries in your life, you first need to understand your values. While this is something we go through in great detail in the Next Step Vet Career Accelerator, a quick version of this is to use AI to help you.
Write down 20 or so words that are important to you in your work and your life. Go through this list and highlight no more than 10 words that resonate the most with you. Then, go on to ChatGPT, and ask it to summarise your 10 words into 4 core values. If you donât feel ChatGPT has got this right, ask it to retry, or even emphasise words that are most important to you.

#. Episode Title With Episode Number at the Start CAPTURE ATTENTION
Itâs a new year, and like many people, youâve probably set a list of resolutions aimed at improving your life and career.
But what if I told you that these resolutions alone won't bring the change you're seeking in your veterinary career?
-
In this episode youâll learn:
The common pitfalls of New Year's resolutions.Strategies to set career goals that are genuinely achievable and fulfilling.How to maintain momentum and adapt as the year progresses.-
YOUR NEXT STEP: A Daily Check-In
If youâve made a goal for the year that is SMART, itâs still likely going to be a big goal. We need to break this down into very small micro-goals.
How?
Each day, while taking into account your bigger goal, first, consider whether anything significant has changed between today and your last daily check in, THEN write down 3 priorities for the day.
If the task takes less than 2 minutes, do it right now.
So for example, if your bigger goal is âCreate a better work-life balanceâ, itâs too vague and you will not achieve that today, but you could write down and DO,
Define SPECIFICALLY what work life balance means to me and write a SMART goal for 2024.Write down and discuss with those closest to me, what are my non-negotiablesContact the boss to discuss a change in work schedule.A daily check-in will allow you to take little nibbles at a bigger, seemingly undefinable, goal.

In todayâs episode, youâre going to find out how.
Is having work-life balance achievable?
Is it realistic as a veterinary professional?
What does work-life balance even mean to me?
These are likely questions you have had, running through your head.
Today, youâre going to hear an episode of my old podcast, Escape the Nine to Five, where I talked about the same issues you're facing, only to a wider range of working professionals.
-
Our guest this week: Nigel Marsh (TED Speaker & Author)
Nigel is an advertising executive who lost his job with four young kids and decided to remain unemployed for a year to spend time with his family and figure out what work-life balance meant to him.
He's also done a wildly popular Ted talk on work-life balance, authored multiple books including: âFat 40 and Firedâ, hosts his own podcast, and speaks around the world about his experience, including at veterinary conferences.
-
In this episode youâll learn:
What time frame to measure work-life balanceWhy you canât take the worldâs problems on your shouldersHow to make change in your career, even if youâre scared of making change.-
YOUR NEXT STEP: Define What Work-Life Balance Means to You.
Privately ask yourself, honestly, what type of person do I want to be? What type of life do I want to lead? What type of legacy do I want to leave ?
Then ask:
What type of person am I?
What type of life am I leading?
What type of legacy will I leave, if I carry on this way?
Identify if there is a gap between those two things and finally ask yourself:
Am I going to do anything about the gap?
As Nigel says, decide don't slide.
And remember if you want to do anything about the gap, but are scared of making change, start small.
Even if it's just one small thing a month over time, you will head in the right direction.

Have you ever wondered why some vets seem to go on to have exciting and diverse careers, and yet youâve yet to discover one for yourself?
Itâs almost like theyâve got a secret ingredient, and theyâre not sharing it with you.
And this secret ingredient could give you the upper hand in your vet career, and create opportunities you NEVER knew existed.
What is this secret ingredient?
In todayâs episode, youâre going to find out.
-
In this episode youâll learn:
What the secret ingredient is.Why it will create opportunities in your veterinary career you never knew existed.How to use it in a way that maximises the benefit to you.-
YOUR NEXT STEP: Participate in an Existing Network.
Whether your dream career is becoming a clinic manager or a conservationist, chances are, there will be physical and virtual networks that already exist that you can get involved in. Participating in existing networks allows you to explore career options with people who are ALREADY living and breathing it.
It is also an environment with less pressure than a job interview, so youâll probably find people are more honest about the pros and cons of a company or industry than they might be in more formal situations. The best way to explore future career possibilities is with a curious and open mindset.
Find out where people who are interested in the same career opportunities as you hang out. Are there online forums you could contribute to, speaker events you could attend or experts you could follow on LinkedIn?
Once you start being proactive and taking action you will find that one thing leads to another and in a relatively short space of time you can make a lot of progress in building a network of people who will help you with future roles.
The best advice I can give within these networks is to offer to help someone in an area that interests you. Networking is just people helping people, and so the more people you seek to help, the more opportunities you will be creating for yourself.
So this week, Participate in an Existing Network.

You're a veterinarian and you're stuck.
You're in a job you're not entirely enjoying and you're coming home from work drained of energy.

Youâre a clinical vet.
They said it would be a âdream jobâ.
Any yet:
The work is unrewarding.
Your clients are demanding.
And youâre reaching the end of your days drained of energy.
You NEED to take action in your career, but youâre not even sure where to start.
You think about changing jobs after YET another exhausting day of work, might look up jobs online, or join groups on social media that give career tips, but then maybe you get distracted.
You watch a funny video on social media, and before you know it, that thought was forgotten, and another day has passed.
Another day stuck in a job leaving you little energy for anything else.
How DO you take action in your career?
In this episode, youâll learn how
-
YOUR NEXT STEP: Rocket Ship Countdown
Do you know that countdown that goes off whenever a rocket ship is about to launch?
Whenever you consider taking action, what youâll normally do is ponder options, daydream, get distracted, and possibly do nothing.
Anytime you consider taking action, instead of thinking about it. Do it.
How?
Next time youâre thinking about taking action in your career, imagine the rocket ship countdown going off in your head.
When you reach one, do something. Itâs an effective way to take action. You wonât always get it RIGHT, and it is still helpful to seek guidance from a career coach like myself, but doing SOMEthing is ALWAYS better than nothing.

You're wanting to make change in your life, but there's a few barriers to making change.
There's a level of comfort in being a clinical vet. You mostly know what you're doing, it pays you comfortably, and you have friends in the industry.
But imagine doing this job for another 30 years?
Imagine a day of work is one page in the story of the rest of your life.
You're coming home from work tired.
The work is often unrewarding.
And you're being drained of energy.
Do you really want to fill the pages and the story of your life, with hundreds, if not thousands of more days like this?
Today, as we continue to design a career that works for you, we're going to have a very short recap episode on why journaling is so important.
-
In this episode youâll learn:
How is journaling going to help, and why is it such an important first step in designing a career that works for you.-
YOUR NEXT STEP: Start a Gratitude Journal.
In the same journal as your Emotions Journal, write down one thing you're grateful for, each and every day. Aim to journal something you're genuinely grateful for that particular day. Not something you feel you "should" be grateful for, such as a roof over your head or good health.
Research has shown that people who count their blessings, tend to be happier and less depressed. Gratitude takes time, but will improve your health your relationships, and increase your resilience. All important foundations for designing a career that works for you.

You're a vet considering a change of career.
But how can you do this without losing your identity as a veterinarian?
How do you handle the change in career, without a change in identity?
Overcoming the expectations - and maybe even disappointment - of family and friends.
Where will you fit in when you're no longer a clinical vet?
-
Our guest this week: Naomi Mellor (equine vet turned professional podcaster)
Naomi took an unusual turn in her career as a vet, going from a respectable job as an equine vet in the racing industry, to a relatively obscure and less prestigious profession.
For someone who had always wanted to be a vet her entire life. She experienced doubts at an unusual age - before she'd even gone to university.
Her parents and mentors quickly quelled that doubt. She went to vet school and ended up working for over 10 years and the equine industry, before rediscovering her passion and a completely new industry - podcasting.
She now runs the international woman's podcast awards as well as hosting her own podcast, working with Amazon, and doing the occasional bit of vet work.
But before Naomi got there, she also struggled with her identity as a veterinarian.
-
In this episode youâll learn:
What Naomi means by 'creating space' in order to figure out what you're meant to be doing next. Why networking is not a necessary evil, but something you should look forward to doing, if you're serious about changing careers. How you can change your career, without losing your identity as a veterinarian.-
YOUR NEXT STEP: Create Space.
Find a way to reduce your hours at work. Ideally locum so that you're in control of your own hours.
If this isn't an option, tell your work, you need to reduce your hours.
It's your life and if you're too busy and stressed to allow the time and energy to spend on your career development you will never find the space to do it.
You've got to create space for yourself.
I would recommend reducing your hours of work by at least eight hours a week. This will allow more time for rest and relaxation and mean you can spend at least two hours a week on your career development.

Have you ever wondered why some people seem so relaxed and happy at work?
What are they doing differently to everyone else? While some people are naturally more happy than others, what if I could give you one thing to do for just 10 minutes a day?
That would increase your happiness at work by about 10%.
Would you do it?
-
In this episode youâll learn:
How to get in a good frame of mind, so you can make the best decisions for your career.How practicing meditation for as little as 10 minutes a day can significantly improve your overall well being.An easy way to make meditation a daily habit.-
YOUR NEXT STEP: Daily Meditation.
Find a time of day you think it will be most achievable for you to consistently practice meditation.
We suggest either first thing in the morning at your lunch break or just after returning home from work, but whatever time of day you choose to do it, the best way to make sure this becomes a habit - before it's even a habit - is to tie it into something you do without consciously thinking about.
Whatever you choose, the only way it's going to become a daily habit is by making it so easy to remember, it will be hard to forget.
A bonus tip, if you celebrate at the end of each meditation with a fist pump or another celebration, your brain will learn it as being rewarded for the behaviour. Within two months, this should become a habit. Much like you brush your teeth without really thinking about it.

What if there was one thing you could do right now to improve your career?
It's a simple task and it will take you less than a minute a day.
Over time it will transform your career.
-
In this episode youâll learn:
What does self awareness really mean?How improving your self awareness will help you better understand what energises and drains you at work.One simple tip for improving your self awareness at work.-
YOUR NEXT STEP: Start an Emotions Journal
Purchase a journal that's calendarized, so you can write in it daily.
At the end of each day, write down three emotions that come up during the day and why those emotions come up.
Place it somewhere, you won't forget it, so it becomes a daily.
I place it on my bedside table so that when I go to bed, I won't forget it.
You might find the task a bit repetitive and maybe even wonder what you're getting out of the.
Maybe you'll start writing down the same thing, and it might start to feel like a waste of time.
But the more you do the exercise, the better you'll get at it.

You're a vet and you may be thinking, 'Am I the only veterinarian stuck in my career?'
What if the very thing you're worried about is more common than you think?
The answer will âsurprise you.
-
In this episode youâll learn:
How common career doubts are in the veterinary industry.Why the decision you made to become a vet shouldn't define the rest of your life.The first step you can take to start designing a career to work for you.-
YOUR NEXT STEP: Write a success log.
In a small journal, write down at least one success from the day each and every day. Take a moment to consider why each of these things were a success. Keep this journal by your bed so it becomes a daily habit.
One of the most important parts of the career journey is going to be increasing self-awareness - by celebrating your successes, you'll be rewiring your brain to spend more energy focusing on the positive.
How will this help you in your career? By consistently celebrating success, it will become clear to you what specific things you are good at - at work - and what you enjoy doing it.
This will be helpful later on in Next Step Vet, when we start to consider future career options for you.

Are you lost as to what to do next in your veterinary career?
Youâve been a vet for a number of years and have reached a stage in your career where you know youâre not satisfied and you need change.
But you feel financially trapped, and youâre unaware of other career options, especially close to where you live.
Where on earth do you even start?
Iâm here to help.
My name is Steve Oehley, I'm a veterinarian turned podcast and career coach.
I was stuck in my own career - got life coaching and sought out the best career advice on the planet. In the process, I've designed a career that works for me.
And now I'm going to help you do the same.
This is Next Step Vet.
Join us on our journey to a more enjoyable life.
