"The Veterinary profession can be exciting, challenging, and gratifying. However, there is a unique set of stressors within the industry that makes the suicide rate among veterinarians 3.5 times that of the general population, making it one of the highest-risk professions. By bringing light to the shadow side of veterinary medicine, Tracy Bittner explores methods to find peace and purpose in this high-stress environment. You don't have to be in the industry to gain insight and self-discovery from the personal stories and resources the author shares from her many years as a licensed veterinary technician. Don't let your mentor become your tormentor. Learn healthy ways to cope with bullying and burnout and become a beacon of hope for others as you reignite your passion for your career."--Back cover.
