ABOUT DR. CARI WISE
I created JOYFUL DVM in 2017 to encourage, empower and educate veterinary professionals in areas of work-life balance, anxiety management, and personal development.
As a fellow veterinarian, I’ve been where you are and I know your current situation is the result of all the things you didn’t learn, and didn’t consider along the way. (BTW: not your fault.) My heart breaks every time we lose a colleague to suicide, and every time I hear of a colleague’s despair over our profession. Decreasing our suicide rate isn't enough... I want us OFF that terrible top 10 list.
My approach is untraditional... because if traditional methods were going to work, they would have a long time ago. There are no victims in VetMed. I'll show you why this is true so you can take back all your power and create a life and profession you actually enjoy.
I’m building new resources all the time...

VETERINARY LIFE COACHING
Sometimes all you need is a fresh perspective!
Life coaching fills in the gaps that medical knowledge and skills training alone left behind. You're a really good VetMed professional! You just haven't been provided with the life-skills education you need to understand what is actually going on in your own mind... so, of course, you're struggling!
Best News Ever: You already have everything you need to create a career and life you love, you just don't know how to tap into it... YET!
That's where I come in! I'll help you sort out your thoughts and beliefs, help you find the thought-errors that are holding you back, and teach you how to harness the power of your own mind to create anything you want!
Sounds pretty bold, I know! It is!
