Veterinary Voices
Most vet clinics are proud of their culture. They know it's special — it's what makes them tick. What they don't know is how to share those stories in ways that mean something to other vets and nurses.
That's culture storytelling. And Julie South — founder of VetClinicJobs — shows vet clinics how to do it.
You'll hear real vets and nurses talking about what it's actually like to work at their clinics. Not the polished corporate version — the real moments that show how teams handle pressure, support each other, and why someone would actually want to work there. That's the kind of proof that builds trust before anyone's even looking.
You'll also learn which stories to share and when, how to stay visible to great people even when you're fully staffed, and why the quiet months between hires are actually your biggest opportunity. Each episode gives you something specific to do that week — a story to share, a shift to make, a pattern to break.
If you're tired of starting from scratch every time someone resigns, this podcast shows you how to become the clinic people are already watching.

006 - Veterinarian shortage in NZ - some causes and some effects - part 1
The first of a multi-part series looking at the dire veterinarian shortage New Zealand faces.
This shortage impacts the humans doing the caregiving - the veterinarians, their colleagues and families, the animals and the animals' owners.
New Zealand is home to approximately 4.35 million companion animals - almost as many pets as there are humans!
In this series you and Julie will catch up with veterinary professionals to hear what it’s like working on the front line in some of New Zealand’s veterinary clinics and hospitals, while our borders are closed to entry from overseas-qualified veterinarians.
If you'd like to know more about the petition Julie mentioned in this episode you can find it on the Parliamentary NZ Website. If you'd like to sign please be assured that online signatures are confidential.
