We each might be looking for something a little different in our job/ career, but this feeling can come up at any time in our career. Your “Goldilocks” spot in your career can also change as you grow and life changes.

?The Search for the Perfect Path

My recent guest on the Vet Life Reimagined podcast, Jen Brown , CVT said that she always felt like she was bouncing around in the veterinary field and could never quite feel at home - nothing seemed to stick for longer than a few years. Yet she knew that vet med was still the right place.

Jennifer’s world opened up when some individuals revealed the vast possibilities within the profession and she was empowered to realize her potential to carve her own niche into pet hospice. Jennifer highlights how she discovered her niche in a way that helps you start to find your own. companions.

?Creating a Fulfilling Ending: Pet Hospice

Jennifer found her “home” in vet med in supporting pet parents in hospice care. In honoring a special, unique relationship that can often be under-supported by other people, Jennifer can help create a beautiful goodbye for pets and their owners, one that can transform an emotional time into a memorable and cherished experience. Her work is helping pet parents feel confident that they have done everything possible for their beloved companions.
