Miami, Empty Fridges & Back-to-School Chaos: Real Talk on Vet School After Dark
Summer is officially over, and JC, Jeremiah, Jess, and Kennedi are here with stories, questionable life choices, and the reality check that comes with another year of vet school.

Living Well with Dr. Jessica Turner: Behind the Scenes of WVC Nashville with Viticus Group CEO Andrea Davis
What does it take to bring one of veterinary medicine’s most iconic conferences to Music City for the very first time? On this episode of Living Well with Dr. Jessica Turner, Dr. Jessica sits down with Andrea Davis, CEO of Viticus Group, the organization behind the legendary WVC veterinary conferences, for a behind-the-scenes look at WVC Nashville and the people, planning, and big ideas bringing this nearly 100-year-old veterinary tradition to Nashville. Andrea shares what goes into creating a conference veterinarians genuinely don’t want to miss, from hundreds of hours of continuing education and hands-on learning to KNACK Tracks, incredible speakers, live music, networking, and unforgettable events. WVC Nashville is taking everything veterinarians love about WVC and mixing in a serious dose of Music City energy. But this conversation goes well beyond the conference. Jessica and Andrea talk candidly about leadership, ambition, family, and what it means to build a career at the highest levels of veterinary medicine. Andrea shares her perspective on leading as a female CEO in an industry where women dominate the profession but remain far less represented in its top executive roles. They also talk about something many working parents understand all too well: how to pursue a big career while still making room for the people who matter most.

Dr. Jessica will be at WVC Nashville as a Vet Candy Ambassador, and you can meet her in person on Monday at the Chewy booth, where she’ll be signing copies of her new book, Blackbird. Stop by, say hello, and grab a free signed copywhile supplies last. It’s leadership, veterinary medicine, family, CE, and Music City all rolled into one episode. WVC Nashville is here. And if Andrea Davis has anything to say about it, Nashville is only the beginning. #veterinarymedicine #wvcnashville #vetmed #animalhealth
