“So what I know for sure is that people in certain circumstances, they do feel stuck sometimes. And I want to, you know, really remind everyone that there are always options. So, this might entail really taking a look at your life, reviewing what you value the most, it may mean accepting less pay and making lifestyle changes accordingly. However, I feel there are always options.”

Our guest today is Dr. Laura Catena. Dr. Catena is the founder and creator of ArmOR Hand Gloves. How she got here was not a straight path at all and she had several challenges, including two difficult pregnancies that led to a change in working conditions and a potentially career ending injury. Rather than letting these hurdles get in her way, Dr. Catena decided to make the best of it and while she was in the hospital the idea for her product came to her to help protect veterinary professionals and the pets we care for. We were so inspired by her positive attitude and her ability to be open to opportunities in front of her. We are so excited to share this journey with you!
