Hey Vets and RVN’s
Our WORK LIFE BALANCE focus group is NOW OPEN to each and every individual residing in THE VETERINARY SECTOR regardless of position, title, contract type etc and is a 2 PART 6 PAGE SURVEY and INTERVIEW PANEL that asks questions pertaining to
- Wellbeing, mental health and mindfulness – Are you supported? How are you feeling?
- What about leadership / Management / Contracts / Salaries and the overall major components to your presence in your working field? Is this working towards your best interests as an employee and valued team player / individual?
- Have you noticed over the years that your job has become more gratifying and has added value to your life or has your job become stressful, misaligned and is no longer adding value to your overall life?
- What about the relationship you have with the rest of your colleagues and teams? Do you feel like a valued member? Is the balance respectful and rewarding? Do you feel like you’re thriving in your team or is there an imbalance or a circumstance that needs to be reviewed / resolved?
- Are you a long term professional that has worked in the same spheres career wise for most of your life and if so, do you feel like this career has provided you with growth and reward or are you perhaps becoming disillusioned?
- How is your home life, finances, partnerships etc? What are your WORK / LIFE BALANCE struggles on a daily basis? Can you identify with what needs to change in order for you to seek balance and satisfaction throughout your working and daily lifestyle ?
- How about your physical health, lifestyle, fitness, sleep, self care practice? Are you managing to fit in some time to practice selfcare, eat well, sleep well and obtain selfcare balance according to how that is applicable to you? If not, can you identify what needs to change and how you could facilitate that successfully?
- How are you managing to juggle the balls? Are you coping well with the intricate balance of WORK and LIFE or are you hugely overwhelmed?
- Do you have support in the areas of your life that are deeply personal? How are your relationships outside of the work place? Do you feel connected, valued, appreciated both inside and outside of the work place? If not, why not?
- What areas do you feel need to change with concerns to all the above and how you see the changes taking place? Can you envision a life that does have balance in both elements of WORK and LIFE? If not, why not? And if yes, how are you implementing these strategies?

JOIN FOCUS GROUP
We can’t thank you enough for joining in. It has broken our hearts over the last few years hearing so many of you reach out in distress over the difficult and challenging ways you are all trying so hard to balance your families, home lives, marriages, finances, health and selfcare time after a busy working day where you are often left feeling stressed, unappreciated and undervalued. We hear you and because you are speaking up in ways that we can statistically track and input, it helps us put strategies in place to have favourable outcomes in the hopefully not so far away future
We’re all in this together!

It must be stressed that this is a deep psych research group that is looking to collect info that reaches across various paradigms of our psychological, emotional, personal and professional bandwidths so some of the questions may seem ‘unrelated’ or quite detailed but it helps to draw a bigger picture. Remember, work is work – life is not work, life is what goes on outside of the working day and we seem to forget we are far more than our ever consuming jobs and titles. We’re aiming for balance. It must all be considered!
PLEASE CONSIDER ATTENDING OUR WORK LIFE BALANCE WORKSHOPS – THEY ARE REALLY INFORMATIVE AND INSPIRING – DETAILS HERE
