Katelyn Carney, DVM, DACVIM (LAIM): The "personal well-being plan," you could Google that and get so many ideas. They're all out there. I like to shape it a little bit differently. For me, it goes back to that idea of human flourishing...And your personal well being plan is different for different moments in your life.

The pandemic shook things up for all of our well-being, didn't it? It challenged how we think about what work-life balance means. It challenged how we think about work, how we think about life. What are our priorities? I think the pandemic asked us to find our new normal. And so what that means for wellbeing for each of us, I think is different.
