Episode 51 : Brooke Butler
“I was so afraid to do things. If I didn’t work on myself and do all these things to overcome that in the past few years, I would never have taken that phone call from David Bessler, I would never have come for the interview and I definitely wouldn’t have moved to New York for a completely new job and new life. Every day I’m trying to work on being better and understanding my weaknesses is step #1.””
Animals and pets are awesome. Those of you that know me, know that I’m totally in love with my dogs, Bandit & Brisket and am a total sucker for any other such creatures. When Lauren Butler from Episode 42 wrote me to recommend her badass emergency veterinarian sister Dr. Brooke Butler, I was an instant yes - both because I love powerful lady referrals and because I had so many questions. How it’s possible to love creatures and manage the emotional burden of hard vet decisions? How is the vet world changing with the modern times? How does one become a badass emergency animal doctor? What does it look like to be a powerful lady from the perspective of a vet? We get into all that, plus how to move across the country and why solo travel is a game changer. All that and so much more.
