Work-Life Balance is a Myth, So What Actually Works?

from FlightPlan: Quick Consults · host Brenda Tassava Medina, CVPM, CVJ

"Work-life balance" might be the most overused phrase in veterinary medicine, so if balance isn't the goal, what is? In this episode, we're joined by Dr. Tate, a veterinarian and practice owner who has never fully bought into the myth, and Ron Sosa, a neuro-inclusive leadership coach who has held nearly every role in a veterinary practice. Together, they get real about what sustainable work-life integration actually looks like: delegating and letting your team grow, scheduling in intentional blocks, and building in space to decompress after emotionally heavy appointments.We also dig into the boundaries we know we should set, but quietly break anyway. From taking back tasks instead of trusting your team to carrying the emotional weight of everyone around you, if you're a fixer, this one's for you.Host = Brenda Tassava Medina, CVPM, CVJ, MVLCEPanelists:Dr. Amy Tate, Managing Partner at Riverview Animal ClinicRonald Sosa, CVPM, CCFP, PgD-CLP, Neuroinclusive Leadership StrategistThanks for listening!Website: https://encorevet.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/encoreveterinaryconsultingInstagram: @encorevetconsultingLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/company/encore-veterinary-consulting
