info_outlineDr. Marci Kirk is Assistant Director for Recent Graduate Initiatives at the AVMA, co-host of the podcast My Veterinary Life, and an avid runner who is missing her race-vacations to Disney while everything is still shut down due to COVID-19. In this episode, we bond over the ways vet med can lift you up or break your heart - just like running. But just like running, vet med doesn't have to look the same for everyone (in fact, that's impossible) and setbacks can just be the grounds for a great comeback that lets us use our skills in ways that make us happy and help us do good.
Marci and I talk about so much stuff in this conversation, from board complaints to the reality of working from home, and the fine line between habit and obsession - we could have talked all day.
