Hey, it's Dave from Coaching for Leaders. Today I'm bringing you a quick chat about managing your energy. During a big change. I sat down recently with one of our recent academy graduates, Jen Quamen, to talk about how she got intentional about handling energy well. Here's our chap.

I'm talking today with Jen Quoman. Jen is a licensed veterinarian, coach, executive, speaker, and volunteer leader. She is currently serving as the president of the American Medical Association and is a recent graduate of the Coaching for Leaders Academy. Jen, what a pleasure to talk to you here on the podcast. Thanks, Dave. It's so great to connect with you again and hopefully the audience will find some valuable tidbits out of our conversation here today. I know folks will, and maybe we should start just by saying a little bit about you and who you are and also a little bit about AVMA because I know some people will be familiar with the association, but others won't. Perfect. So yes, so you've already shared with folks I'm a veterinarian. I was brought to veterinary medicine in a slightly unconventional way. So I

was originally a credentialed veterinary technician before and during veterinary school, which is sort of equivalent to our nurses. And I I have had the opportunity to sort of experience vetmed in a lot of different ways. And in my real world of working world, I do relief veterinary work, which means that I'm sort of stepping into different hospitals and caring for patients when I'm needed. And so I rarely have the same hospital, the same team that I'm working with day in and day out. And I work remotely with a technology startup that's based in Texas. And so I could be literally in a veterinary clinic somewhere in Pick a State, or I could be behind a computer screen and talking to software engineers in Texas or wherever they may happen to be on behalf of the veterinary world.

That is the first couple of minutes. The rest is 1 credit.
