Living with Integrity. Compassion fatigue Vs. Job burnout in veterinary medicine‪.‬ If I Can Do It, You Can Too! Coaching with Erin Zimowske Alvarez

“The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated.” - Mahata Gandhi
.
For me, I have to be able to sleep at night. 🙌🏻
.
I discuss the differences between compassion fatigue, ethical fatigue and job burnout here.
.
My name is Erin and I’m a busy veterinarian who’s a St. George’s University 2008 graduate, a busy mama to a kindergartner and a certified health coach that Virtual Gym motivation groups to mentor others.
.
I am a California native and completed a Bachelor’s in biochemistry in 2002 at Cal State University, Hayward and I wanted to be. Veterinarian (and an author) since age 9.
.
I was told in my senior year of high school that since my GPA was only a 3.00 that my career path would be very difficult but I let this FUEL MY DESIRE rather than discourage me.
.
I graduated veterinary school, only to be plunged into unhealthy work environments and working 65-70hrs a week with little time for anything besides working and sleeping. I gained 30lbs in less than 2 years. . .
I’m am also a grateful believer in Jesus and am in recovery for codependency, anxiety snd depression having done multiple 12-steps and a LOT of work through @celebraterecoveryofficial and this helped me through a serious episode of depression and compassion fatigue. ❤️
