Our mission: To make the prioritization and cultivation of individual and organizational wellbeing a non-negotiable constant for the veterinary community.
Our Story:
Get MotiVETed was founded by a veterinary technician and a veterinarian who worked together and noticed a major need of the veterinary profession.
Having overcome their own struggles and having made their own commitments to true wellbeing, Renee Machel and Dr. Quincy Hawley realized that they were on similar paths and began to dream about the possibility of sharing their tools and strategies with the rest of the veterinary profession.
Understanding the importance of sharing their tools and strategies with others, Renee and Dr. Hawley birthed Get MotiVETed into a company that has influenced and impacted thousands of veterinary professionals across the globe!
Through sharing their stories and informing veterinary professionals of the importance of embracing mindfulness and personal development, they have earned the trust of many as their heartfelt words resonate with other veterinary professionals.
They originally provided 1-on-1 personal and professional coaching to various veterinary professionals, and while coaching is powerful and proved to be effective for many vet professionals, they desired to take a 1-to-many approach and use their voices and speaking abilities to empower and motivate entire audiences ranging from small groups to 1,000+ in size!
Still not entirely satisfied with only being able to share their tools, strategies, and stories on an audience-by-audience basis, Renee and Dr. Hawley birthed the idea of creating their own online university, Get MotiVETed University: School of Wellbeing for Veterinary Professionals, which would allow them to reach hundreds of thousands of veterinary professionals all over the world!
Since it’s official creation in January of 2018, Renee and Dr. Hawley have grown their team to include Dr. Barry Feldman (Ph.D.), Practice Managers, pre-veterinary students, veterinary students, veterinarians, and veterinary technicians and assistants!
Get MotiVeTed is based out of N.C., but they have team members that span the entire United States!
It is Get MotiVeTed’s purpose to make burnout and poor veterinary wellbeing things of the past, and through strategic partnerships and a lot of hard work, they plan to do just that!
