About this listen

 In this heartfelt and refreshingly honest episode of Tales to Tell, Dr. Jacki is joined by her husband Adam for a rare behind-the-scenes look at the real journey behind building a life, a family, and a veterinary practice from the ground up. The couple reflects on the early setbacks, unexpected pivots (like launching a mobile vet service out of a minivan!), and the resilience it took to turn rejection into redirection.

While they didn't dive into many animal tales this time, Jacki and Adam share something just as meaningful—how their differences became their greatest strengths and how choosing each other, again and again, shaped not just their marriage but their mission. From balancing intense personalities to building a business rooted in family-first values, this episode reminds us that success isn’t always about climbing the ladder—it’s about building something worth coming home to.

From navigating imposter syndrome and recession-era parenting to celebrating their kids’ college dreams and shared legacy, this episode is packed with laughter, vulnerability, and wisdom. If you’ve ever doubted your path—or wondered how love, grit, and a little crazy idea can create something beautiful—you’ll find encouragement here.

Tune in for stories of pets, purpose, and the power of sticking it out—even when the back of the van flies open.
