#220: Leaving Gracefully
Manage episode 476027892 series 2900678
In Episode 220 of the Joyful DVM podcast, Dr. Cari Wise addresses a universal yet often emotionally charged topic in the veterinary profession: leaving a job. She explores why it's perfectly okay to move on; and how to do it with integrity, clarity, and grace. Whether you're running toward a new opportunity or running away from a challenging environment, this episode provides practical wisdom and encouragement for navigating professional transitions without burning bridges.
Key Takeaways:
- You Don’t Need Permission to Leave: Your desire to move on is valid, even if others don’t understand it. The most important thing is that you like your reason for leaving.
- Clarity is Power: Understanding why you want to leave — whether you’re running from discomfort or running toward opportunity — is crucial. The latter tends to lead to more fulfilling results.
- Avoid the "Same Situation, Different Clinic" Trap: If you're only trying to escape a bad experience without fully understanding the root cause, you may end up recreating that experience in your next role.
- Small Profession, Big Connections: The veterinary world is tightly knit. Leaving with grace preserves relationships that might benefit you in the future.
- Preserve Your Peace: Departing from a job should be an act of empowerment, not destruction. You owe it to yourself to walk away in a way that maintains your integrity and peace of mind.
