Ep 33: Happy Hour 14 – Know your worth / are VNs paid enough?
After a bit of a break, regular hosts Rachael Buzzel and James Westgate hit the ground running with a Medivet sponsored episode titled “Know your worth – are VNs paid enough? How to gain confidence when talking about money”.
Our lead interview is with BVNA council member Lyndsay Hughes, who spearheads a nursing network within XLVets and believes empowering nurses will lead to improved confidence in them being able to achieve all that they want to within their roles.
Joining her in our panel discussion will be VMG senior vice-president and WSAVA executive director Rich Casey, and financial advisor Ruth Downs, who uses her knowledge to help simplify finance for others.
This episode originally took place at 8pm on 29 September 2022.
