I Didn’t Choose VetMed—It Chose Me (Literally)- with deborah-enyo-omali

What happens when your career chooses you before you choose it? In this heartfelt episode of The Vet Story Podcast, I sit down with Nigerian veterinarian Dr. Deborah Enyo Omali, who shares her surprising—and hilarious—journey into veterinary medicine. From wanting to become a marine biologist to mistakenly enrolling in vet school, Deborah’s story is full of twists, tears, grit, and growth. We talk about:     The pressure of choosing a "serious" career in an African household     How she accidentally became a veterinarian (thanks, dad)     Falling in love with public health and community service     The reality of being a young vet in rural Nigeria     And why grit, not just passion, is the real secret to success Whether you’ve always known you were meant for vet med—or you’re still figuring it out—this episode will remind you that purpose sometimes finds you when you least expect it. https://www.linkedin.com/in/deborah-enyo-omali/
