The UAE is a constantly changing, ebbing and flowing expat hub. Veterinary professionals as well as clients come and go on a regular basis and therefore, keeping the consistency of standards, education and skills within the team is a challenge that needs constant attention and management.What has most helped and motivated you along the way?I think the patients themselves motivate me the most. Seeing the change in a fearful or frustrated pet is just magical and definitely keeps the motivation high. I also believe that the team you build around you is crucial and helps to keep motivating and reinforcing the path and the journey.I also love seeing people learn and grow and become more confident professionally and personally.What is the best advice youve been given, or thatyou would give to someone else, about drivingpositive change?Taking small, yet consistent steps towards your goal and trusting your gut and intuition.What are your next steps to continue creating changefor the better?Last year, I created a fully online Veterinary Behaviour BusinessTrinity Veterinary Behaviour.This will enable me to share education and resources on all things Veterinary Behaviour on a global scale. The business is just in its infancy as I dedicate the time to completing my residency, however, I see big things happening in the future.12www.veterinarywoman.co.uk'
