Caffeinators, we've talked A LOT about what good leadership and management looks like. And this episode with Lynn Blake is another peak into that world. There was some fascinating discussion in this episode, and some real life examples of what supporting your team looks like and what it can look like to actually be supported by management. This episode is a call to all veterinary practices to look inward and evaluate your processes and procedures and protocols and how those affect your team. We can say this with confidence-Lynn will be back on the Vet Tech Cafe.

Caffeinators, we're going International again! IVECCS is next week, so what better time to chat with Joanna Kaczmarczyk, a veterinary technician from Poland (and still credentialed as an RVN in the UK as well)! She talks about the veterinary technician profession in Poland and also compares and contrasts it to her time in the UK. She is active with PAVECC, the Polish Association of Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care, and a part of what will be the FIRST referral hospital in Poland, scheduled to open in September. This was a great discussion!

Caffeinators, you may remember our episode from a couple years ago with Sam Geiling, where we talked about her work starting a vet tech program in Hawaii, helping form a Hawaiian vet tech association, and much more. Well, she's back! We had a great conversation about her current work with the Government Relations Committee for NAVTA, moving back to the mainland to Minnesota, and her new work with Animal Policy Group and some of the controversy surrounding that. When we think about laws that are enacted that shape our profession, there is often YEARS of work put into it by several people, and this was a fascinating look into a small part of that process.

Caffeinators, if you've been with us since the beginning, you may remember Liza Wysong as our guest for our 4th episode. We did things very differently back then (almost 5 years ago!) and a lot of has changed at the Vet Tech Cafe, and a lot has changed for Liza too! We checked in with her recently as she is now the program director for the brand-spanking-new veterinary technician program at Rowan College of South Jersey. This program is an extension of the new DVM program at Rowan University set to start in 2025, and it's exciting to hear the ideas for integration and collaboration between the two programs and how that might evolve in the future! Liza has been a huge supporter of ours since the beginning and it was great to reconnect with her!

Caffeinators, buckle up! This is another good one! We had self-described disrupter Becky Taylor by the Vet Tech Cafe! She is doing some amazing things up in Canada, and has been for a very long time-she's a vintage vet tech, like us! She's a communication nerd with a Master's Degree in Professional Communication, and has gone so far as so start her own business, BS Communication Strategies (wait till you hear the story about that name!). She teaches people to communicate better through an evidence-based, interactive approach. This was an incredibly fun discussion-don't miss out!

Caffeinators, you know we've talked about veterinary technician education from several viewpoints, and we will continue to do so. This is another one of those episodes. Carrie Fellows in an RVT who was one of the first to graduate from LMU's recently started Master's program with a Master's Degree in Veterinary Clinical Care. We explored the program at length and it made for a fascinating discussion about where it could lead and what we do with it. As Carrie laid out, with the path her career has taken, the VTS path was never really for her but this program absolutely was. You're really gonna enjoy this one.

Caffeinators, are your people cat people? If so, then you probably know of Ellen Carozza. You may know her from her educational page on IG, @thecatlvt, as well. She has a VTS in feline medicine, one of the first to achieve it, and does incredible work with our feline friends. We chatted about the path the feline VTS, her amazing work with The Chris Griffey Memorial Feline Foundation, and SO MUCH MORE. This episode is not to be missed, especially if you love cats!

Caffeinators, you'll want to tune in for this one! We first started talking with Erica Emmett over two years ago about being a guest on our show, and as always, life happens. We finally got to record this episode, and it was fascinating to hear the professional path she's taken in the two years since! She's started Fyr Consulting which focuses on individuals and team coaching for veterinary professionals. She's been in vet med over 25 years and she draws on her experience to make the teams she coaches even better! We're so glad it took us 2 extra years to connect because we got to learn about Fyr, which we wouldn't have previously. Sometimes things just work out!

Caffeinators, welcome back to Mental Health Awareness Month! We're continuing this mini-series with Julie Morse-Elliott, RVT, VTS(ECC). She's had a long career as an RVT and is now pursuing registration as a professional counselor to aid those working in veterinary medicine. She is also in the midst of starting a foundation with a goal to provide free counseling to those that need support after experiencing workplace related trauma, and will be heading up the veterinary division of the foundation.
This was a fascinating discussion to learn about the process and what the future may hold. Both of these episodes this month were great examples of RVT's finding a new passion later in their career, yet finding a way to make it fit under the veterinary umbrella and blaze a new path from which we will all benefit. These episodes are not to be missed!

Caffeinators, it's already May and if you've followed us for a while, you know May is Mental Health Awareness Month and we dedicate our May episodes to mental health issues in our profession. This year, we have two awesome episodes for you-each featuring an RVT, both from Canada, that are pivoting in their careers from clinical medicine to supporting veterinary workers in the area of Mental Health.
First up is Kathleen Dunbar, RVT, VTS(Clinical Practice-C/F). She has a Masters Degree in Social Work and is working to become a veterinary social worker, as she has worked in the mental health field for 25 years alongside her veterinary career. Her passion is death, grief, and end of life support and provides both individual and group support for pet parents and veterinary team members throughout the east coast of Canada. This was a fascinating and thought-provoking discussion you don't want to miss!

Caffeinators, pack your bags and fasten your seatbelts. We're going to where the water spins backwards. We're headed back to the Southern Hemisphere, specifically New Zealand! We met a wonderful Kiwi at IVECCS last year, Ashleigh Walsh, at the AVECCTN pinning ceremony. When we learned she was there from New Zealand we knew we had to have her on as a guest. It took until THIS WEEK to figure out the logistics as she's 19 hours and 16 hours ahead of Jeff and Dave, respectively. What an awesome conversation! We learned some things that blew our minds-did you know New Zealand doesn't have snakes? We talked so much about what it looks like to become an RVN in New Zealand, the fact that Ashleigh is the FIRST VTS(ECC) there, the profession and so much more. This episode is so much fun. Come for her accent, stay for her knowledge. We really enjoyed this one and we hope you do too!

We got lots to talk about in this Taproom Episode! We've got outside sources criticizing our profession and we think you know who we're talking about. We also dive into the concept of CPR/DNR policies What is your hospital's CPR policy? When do you bring that up with the client? Do you have a flat fee for CPR? Who has that discussion with the owner? Let us know in the comments!

Caffeinators, are you ready to have your mind blown?
We've long thought it's time to rethink veterinary technician education, and many out there agree. Thankfully, Jennifer Gunther is someone that is out there doing it. She's been an educator at Denver Community College's vet tech program for 20+ years, and they have recently started an apprenticeship program that exists separately and in addition to their standard, 2 year AVMA accredited program.
But here's the deal: It's not an alternate route/alternate pathway. They still graduate with a 2 year degree, it's still AVMA approved, they just work 30 hours a week at an approved hospital and do the education part remotely. Jennifer discusses all the ins and outs of an apprenticeship program, and the hoops they had to go through with the US Department of Labor to get approval, along with vetting the hospitals and applicants, and SO MUCH MORE.
She talks challenges and the uniqueness of the program-it is the FIRST and ONLY so far in the US! Is this the future of veterinary technician education? Take a listen and let us know what you think.

Caffeinators, have you ever thought about what it would be like to be a traveling veterinary technician? Maybe have a home base, but otherwise constantly on the road traveling to all corners of the US and working relief? Then have we got an episode for you!
Our friend Simon Chavez recently stopped by one of our locations-it may have been Chicago, Boston, or Anchorage, we're not sure-but we had a very interesting conversation on what life and a career look like as a locum technician! We talked about how Simon built his network of hospitals he does most of his relief at, how he builds his schedule, getting started, taxes, travels, licensing, all of it.
We literally circled the map in this discussion, and we're sure that in the time since we recorded this episode, Simon has re-circled the US again as well! Oh, and we also talk about his traveling sidekick, Bruce Wayne!

Hello from Phoenix! Our second "staff meeting" trip to Phoenix. We recap our trip and have a discussion about "Things we don't do anymore".
-
Caffeinators, if you've been listening in a while, you've heard several guests recommend Doc Jim when we ask who they think we should talk to. And guess what?! We got him! We don't often have veterinarians on our podcast, but there are those who are integral to our development as a profession and Doc Jim is certainly one of them!
Holy cow was this episode fun! He is such a huge supporter "of our amazing profession" and we talk extensively about how he gave up practicing as a small animal veterinarian over 40 years ago to blaze the path of being involved in veterinary technician education. It's really mind-boggling what a trailblazer he was at that time.
We talk a lot about vet tech education and how that's evolved and how the leadership in our field has evolved as well. This episode is as fun as it is fascinating. You don't want to miss this one!

Caffeinators, anchors aweigh, it's time to set sail! Have you heard of Vet Tech Life? Have you heard of CE on the Sea? If so, then you know Kelly Cronin. We know her from our VTS(ECC) study group days over 10 years ago, and she came by the Vet Tech Cafe recently to talk about this amazing CE event, which recently sailed, along with so many other topics! She talked a lot about management and transitioning to that role, we talked a lot about financial fitness and how we can achieve that in our field
**SPOILER ALERT**-it is possible, and also her consulting business. We also touched on her vacation property rental business and so much more. We feel like we circled the globe in this one, and we kinda did! Download today!
