HONORING OURSELVES AS WE HONOR THE HUMAN-ANIMAL-BOND PART 2 SHARES THE CONCEPTS ON HOW TO STAY CONNECTED Kimberly Pope-Robinson, DVM 6:00 PM - 6:50 PM | Room 007 A "Taking The Path To Honoring Ourselves As We Honor the Human-Animal-Bond". The path to veterinary career sustainability is found when individuals are provided a space that allows each of them to find their unique path to honoring themselves while they honor the human-animal- bond. Veterinary professionals do not need to be told what to do, but instead be provided a framework that allows them to find longevity in their own way. With this lecture, attendees will come away with an understanding of this framework and then how to utilize it as they begin to find the path to honor themselves. Allowing each individual to once again start the journey to live connected to the passion they hold close to their heart and in doing so, find their sustainability within the veterinary industry. HOW TO BECOME A RECOVERING PERFECTIONIST Perfectionism, or high-achievement syndrome, is a common trait of those that enter into the medical field and this is especially true in the veterinary industry. This is a great personality trait to drive the individual through their schooling and training, however, it is often not so great in providing them with a fulfilling career. This talk takes the audience through one veterinary professional’s personal journey of finding a way to embrace her perfectionism tendencies. Helping to no longer name, blame and judge their perfectionism, but instead recognize, embrace and connect with it. The tips on how to become a recovering perfectionist literally saved this veterinary professional’s life and they want to share them with the profession.
