About the webinar

Veterinary nursing is meaningful work – and it can also be messy, emotional, and fast. This upbeat, non-technical session gives you a practical toolkit to design a career you can love for the long haul. We’ll replace willpower with simple systems: quick resets for energy, warm boundary and civility scripts for tricky client moments, a lightweight planning method to protect brain space, and a 12-week growth sprint that keeps your development visible (and valued). You’ll learn a two-minute end-of-shift debrief, design a 12-Week Growth Sprint and build a personal Recovery Menu that actually gets used on the hard days. Expect demos, micro-practice, and a 7-day implementation challenge – so you leave not just inspired, but set up to act tomorrow.

You will be able to join the live webinar directly from this page.
