Can you really “have it all” in veterinary medicineor does something always give?
For many of us, the job becomes everything until we realize it’s costing us more than we ever thought it would.
In this episode, I sit down with Heather LaDoux Argrave, a veterinary technician working on her certification who’s walked the halls of corporate practice, private practice, and academia at LSU’s teaching hospital. She shares the wake-up calls that made her step back, choose her peace, and put her family and marriage first without losing her identity.
We unpack what balance really looks like, how to notice when you’re running on empty, and practical ways to protect your joy in and out of the clinic.
Whether you’re a student, a new grad, or a seasoned veterinary professional feeling stretched thin, this conversation is a reminder that your career is only part of your story.
