Discovering dentistry, mentorship, and leadership with Dr. Rachel Stading

Dr. Rachel Stading, a small animal associate veterinarian with special interests in dentistry and leadership development, is our guest on this week's episode. Dr. Stading reflects on how mentorship, curiosity, and different practice experiences helped her better understand what she needed to thrive as she navigated an early interest in wildlife and aquatic animal medicine to discovering an unexpected passion for veterinary dentistry. She also shares how her growing interest in leadership and mentoring came full circle through the Veterinary Leadership Institute, reinforcing the value of understanding yourself, supporting others, and being willing to take the first step.
