In this episode of Unfiltered Vet Discussions, the conversation focuses on an innovative mental health initiative for veterinary professionals in Florida. The episode introduces Inspire by FVMA, a program designed to provide free access to veterinary-informed mental health professionals and equip veterinary workplaces with tools to foster well-being at individual, team, and organizational levels. Backed by support from Blue Buffalo and the FVMA, this initiative includes three free mental health sessions for any veterinary professional in Florida, well-being certification programs, and tools based on evidence-based frameworks like PERMA. The discussion highlights the importance of addressing mental health stigma, increasing accessibility, and empowering veterinary teams to create healthier work environments. Listeners are encouraged to share the program details to help spread the word and support others in need.
