Our guest today is Dr. Sonja Olson. Dr. Olson has had an incredible career! We dig into how the road was not a straight path to where she is now and how it all ended up working out in an unexpected way for her to pursue her dreams. We discuss how it takes a lot of self-reflection to determine what next steps are the best for you in your career and ways to follow your passions, which in Dr. Olson’s case culminated into a book on veterinary wellbeing that was just released! It is a great conversation, and we learn so much from her positive attitude towards challenges and unforeseen bumps along the road. We cannot wait to share her journey with you.

We first met at the 2020 Veterinary Leadership Conference where she was a member of a student panel put together by one of our co-hosts, Dr. Anna Reddish. Her perspectives on leadership and stories from her career so far are so fun and insightful. We are constantly in awe of the adaptability and positive attitude veterinary students are bringing to veterinary medicine, especially during a global pandemic!

Our guest today is Dr. Michael Blackwell. Dr. Blackwell is a graduate of the College of Veterinary Medicine at Tuskegee University. He has had a truly incredible and inspirational career which has taken him to places he never expected. Following in his father’s footsteps, he started out in a mixed animal practice in Oklahoma, after that he spent many years with the FDA. He then moved on to become the first, and so far, only, veterinarian to serve as the chief of staff in the office of the Surgeon General. He also spent time as the Dean of the College of Veterinary Medicine at the University of Tennessee. He is back at the University now and working on programs to help provide affordable care to all pet owners. We also talk about how being a part of a minority group has impacted his veterinary career and why he took certain rolls even if it wasn’t where he initially saw himself going in veterinary medicine. It’s a great conversation and we are so excited to share this journey with you!

We have a very fun episode of My Veterinary Life Podcast today! We were joined by Kristina Williams a veterinary student at Colorado State University. We first met Kristina at the 2020 AVMA Veterinary Leadership Conference where she participated on a student panel talking about leadership experiences and perspectives. Her analogy with crabs caught everyone’s attention and is something we can all learn from! Throughout this episode she shares great insights on community and how she has overcome so many challenges. We also all bonded over our fascination with ‘wildlife’ or animals that are out in the wild and how we respond to them. This is a great episode that is sure to put a smile on your face and we can’t wait to share this journey with you!

Our guest today is Dr. Barbara Natterson-Horowitz. Dr. Natterson-Horowitz was the keynote speaker at the 2019 AVMA Convention. We were so fortunate to record this episode with her the day before her presentation. She was incredibly generous with her time and sharing her story. She is an MD and was focused on cardiology and cardiovascular disease in the first part of her career but in recent years has discovered a new passion which builds upon some of her studies in undergraduate. You will have to listen to this episode to hear all her amazing accomplishments including being the author of two books. She also covers how she wouldn’t be where she is today without the support of her friends and family. She is a HUGE fan of the veterinary profession. We were honored to speak with her and cannot wait to share this journey with you!
