Big shout out to @davis.vbma for inviting me to speak about creating mentorship agreements!

Mentorship agreements are one of the most important and most often overlooked steps to ensuring a successful and productive experience for both the mentor and the mentee. These don’t have to be complicated or overly formal, but they should include:
🖊️ Goal-setting
🖊️ Learning style (or, how you plan to achieve these goals)
🖊️ When, where, and how often you’ll meet
🖊️ Preferred communication methods (how do you like receiving feedback?)

Ironing out some of these details at the outset can prevent challenges later on—especially as your learning needs evolve.

As new veterinarians gain confidence and independe

As new veterinarians gain confidence and independence, they may find their emerging style doesn’t align with their mentor’s ways. This is normal and a sign of growth! When you encounter these situations, don’t panic or feel guilty—have a conversation with your mentor and revisit the mentorship agreement.

Hey RVG family, it’s time to get together! Joi

Sometimes you just need to squeeze a puppy! I’ve

Sometimes you just need to squeeze a puppy! I’ve always said an apricot toy poodle will be my retirement dog, but I’m thinking maybe I don’t need to wait that long? PSA for early career vets and anyone else who needs it- this job is hard, take time to squeeze a puppy! It’s part of my daily wellbeing. This was just the therapy I needed after after a difficult case today. I’m obsessed with @dr.mattmcglasson ‘s kitten posts and watch them over and over when I’m have a rough clinic day, but it’s team puppy for me today!

DEI is a topic with a big learning curve, but by having honest conversations that are outside our comfort zones, prioritizing practice or organizational culture, and embracing vulnerability and authenticity we can achieve a more inclusive and diverse veterinary community.

The learning process is so much more than skill acquisition! Unlike other mentorship programs, our content and community help you build layers of connection from day 1—enriching not only your mentorship experience but your future in vet med.

If you haven’t already heard, Ready, Vet, Go recently welcomed our first veterinary student liaison! We’re thrilled to have Maya Sullivan on board to provide us with an insider’s perspective on the needs of today’s vet students and emerging graduates. 👏

There’s nothing as sacred as a long-lasting friendship! Check out these pics from a recent yoga retreat I enjoyed with my (still!) close friend. We’ve been buddies since 5th grade!

Maintaining friendships is so important, especially during big life transitions such as graduating from vet school. Reconnecting with those time-tested relationships can help you feel more grounded and less lonely when everything else (e.g., your network of friends or even your location) is changing.

Drop a comment below 👇 and tell me about your time-tested friendship—or take this post as inspiration to reconnect!

I’ll never forget how it felt when I was a new a

I’ll never forget how it felt when I was a new associate performing a spay on a big Lab. I asked a senior veterinarian for help and he responded by saying, “I thought you did an internship…”
😭

That’s NOT the way to create a psychologically safe workplace.

How should he have responded to me? 🤔
Let me know what you think in the comments! 👇

I find it a lot easier to be the vet than the pet

I find it a lot easier to be the vet than the pet owner. But today I get to be both! My sweet and very arthritic Hippo received his first Librella injection today and I’m so excited for him! We’ve been managing his pain with so many other things and it just hasn’t been enough. I love that we have something new to try for these painful guys.
As hard as it being on the other side as the pet owner to a sick or painful pet, I always reminds our mentees (and myself) that these experiences help make us better vets- more empathetic, better communicators, and more experienced. How has being on the other side as the pet owner helped you practice? What do you do differently as a vet after an experience with of your own pets? #vetlife #vetstudent #veterinarian #newvet #vetmentor

I encourage every veterinary professional to know

I encourage every veterinary professional to know their why and revisit it at least once a year.

Why, you ask?

Because whys change and evolve just like we do, and recognizing that change can help you appreciate your journey so far and shift your focus toward new goals.

Our Ready, Vet, Go mentees recently enjoyed a great chat with @blend.vet ‘s Chief Learning Officer Stiles Foster. Stiles spoke about unconscious bias and how it affects veterinary teams and client interactions.

We love collaborating with blendvet and supporting their mission as the nation’s first and only veterinary-curated DEIB training curriculum. Check them out!

We have some pretty high standards for our Ready,

We have some pretty high standards for our Ready, Vet, Go mentors (10+ years of experience as a veterinarian, leadership experience in practice, must LOVE vet med and being a cheerleader for new veterinarians, etc.), and those standards have meant that our mentees get to learn from the best. 👏

Meet Gary Marshall, DVM, Ready, Vet, Go mentor! (Follow him at @it.might.get.weird !)

Psychological safety is a shared belief that team

Psychological safety is a shared belief that team members won’t be judged, shamed, or ridiculed for taking risks, making mistakes, or simply being different. 😍

Teams with high psychological safety experience greater job satisfaction, self-confidence, and personal well-being, while providing better patient care and client service. 👏

Use the steps above to ensure your practice is a welcoming, supportive, and growth-oriented workplace where new veterinary associates can reach their full potential.

🫏 and 🐐 and 🐄, oh my!

An adult birthday party at a walnut ranch that has donkeys, goats, and cows?! Sign me up! 👏

What an awesome time at @vetncare CEO Dr. Andrew Moffatt’s birthday celebration this past weekend!

Andrew has become a dear friend of mine, and, as Ready, Vet, Go’s first corporate group, VetNCare holds a special place in my heart. To this day, VetNCare trusts Ready, Vet, Go to onboard and mentor its newest associates.

We love watching new veterinarians grow within the practice and the organization. (We enjoy birthday parties, too—just sayin’ 😉!) Thanks for the invite, Andrew!
