    In this episode of VetLife, I speak with Geoffrey, a veterinary technician, about the vital role technicians play in veterinary medicine, the importance of humor and education in the field, and the challenges of managing burnout and compassion fatigue. Geoffrey shares his personal journey, including struggles with addiction and recovery, and emphasizes the significance of community support among veterinary professionals. We discuss strategies for maintaining physical and mental well-being, pursuing professional growth through specialization, and the veterinary community's need for kindness and understanding.
