  • Summary

  • Welcome to "It Might Get Weird," the podcast where we dive into the journeys of veterinary professionals.

    Your hosts are Dr. Gary Marshall and Sara Rae.
    Gary has been a veterinarian for more than 35 years. Sara has been a veterinarian for zero years. That's about to change and that's why we're here.

    Our main focus will be to follow Sara on adventures as a Washington State University class of 2028 veterinary student. We’ll be along for the ride as she encounters challenges, and celebrates triumphs during her 4 year commitment to become a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine.

    Along the way, we’ll also interview super interesting individuals who have valuable stories to share about their personal and professional journeys.

    Dr. Nia Powell Joins Sara and Gary to discuss coping with initially not passing the NAVLE (North American Veterinary Licensing Exam). So many veterinary students are receiving an email this week announcing if they passed this beast of a test or not. Nia provides first hand experience, and maybe some advice, on how to cope with not passing, and with passing. This is an important episode if you took this test recently, or if you know anyone that did. And it's only part 1, so make sure and listen to Episode 34 (Part 2) as well. Thanks for listening.

    Drs. Phil Richmond and Gary Marshall (no Sara during this part 2) wrap up there conversation and cover a lot of ground. Most importantly for vet students listening, they have a discussion about the emotions surrounding that moment the NAVLE scores arrive in your email inbox. Phil also shares about the cutting edge program he helped develop to provide mental health resources to all veterinary professionals in his home state, and we almost learn just how many birds he and his family live with.
