#173 Chasing Confidence

The Joyful DVM Podcast: Empowering Veterinary Professionals

In this episode, Dr. Cari Wise discusses chasing confidence and its impact on our lives.

She shares how many people seek external validation to feel confident and points out this habit has been reinforced by educational systems.

An unintended consequence: A constant, conditional pursuit of worthiness.

Dr. Wise challenges the idea that confidence is something we have to work hard to create, suggesting that it is a decision we can make to be confident in ourselves first.

The importance of not tying confidence to external validation is emphasized, and listeners are encouraged to reflect on what they would do in their lives if they felt confident.

The episode concludes with an invitation to join the VetMed; Joy Club and participate in a the Creating Confidence Workshop, exclusively for VetMed; JOY CLUB members.
