Mic Drop: Wear Your Own Crown, It’s the Only One That Truly Fits

by Dr. Jackie Parr BScH, DVM, MSc, Dip ACVN

 

Dr. Jackie Parr, aka The Kibble Queen, is a board-certified veterinary clinical nutritionist that is passionate about veterinary team members “finding and wearing their own crown.” She created this talk to not only share the life and career lessons she has learned in a humorous way, but to encourage others to keep looking until they are “wearing a crown that truly fits.” She focuses on three main lessons that helped her become The Kibble Queen:

 

1) If the crown doesn’t fit, don’t force it.
2) You don’t have to sell the crown jewels but remember that cheap really can be a waste of money.
