On this episode of Living Well with Dr. Jessica, we meet Dr. Sonja Olson who is a Wellness Educator for the BluePearl Health & Well-being Team. She works alongside veterinary social workers to create and train on well-being concepts and initiatives as well as foster conversations that promote a more compassionate, healthy community and culture. She talks about the problems facing the profession these days and her new book, A Call to Life.
A Call to Life aims to help veterinary caregivers increase self-efficacy, decrease unnecessary suffering, and increase sustainability in their mission to support animal health around the world. The veterinary profession is powered by dedicated, bright, and selfless individuals. Unfortunately, the long-standing and dysfunctional culture in classrooms and practices around the world expects veterinary caregivers to be ready to sacrifice everything – their time, their health, their personal lives – in the name of being deemed qualified and ‘worthy.’
