This two-part series with clinical psychologist Dr Helena Tucker explores how hormonal health intersects with the realities of veterinary work, and what individuals, colleagues, and leaders can do to respond well. 

Whether you're navigating something personally or looking to create a more supportive culture in your practice, both sessions are practical, evidence-informed, and built around what veterinary professionals actually told us they needed. 

After signing up, you'll receive access to our online learning platform where you'll find the full session recordings, slides, resources, reflection prompts, and a downloadable CPD certificate, all in one place.

This session was brought to you by Vet Empowered and kindly sponsored by Covetrus.

What you will learn: 

•  Explain how hormonal load interacts with the demands of veterinary work, and put into words why a harder day is not evidence of reduced capability 
• Name the range of hormonal experiences that may be present in your workplace, and recognise why they so often go unseen, even by the people experiencing them 
• Use a practical framework for self-advocacy and disclosure that lets you ask for what you need without over-explaining, justifying your biology, or waiting until you're at breaking point 
• Start and respond to conversations about hormonal health at work in a way that feels proportionate, human, and actually useful 
• Tell the difference between what individuals can do for themselves, what colleagues can offer, and what needs to come from the organisation 
• Recognise when someone needs more support than the workplace can provide, and know how to open that conversation without getting it wrong Identify one meaningful step you can take this week toward a more hormone-aware, psychologically safe culture in your practice or team
