Have you ever walked out of the vet thinking, I should’ve asked more… but it happened so fast?

This episode is for the moment you’re sitting in the exam room, your brain goes blank, and the vet is moving on to the next step before you’ve processed what you just heard.

In this episode, I’m giving you real, usable phrases to ask about priorities, timing, options, and cost, plus what to say when you need to pause or say no, without sounding rude, cheap, or like you don’t care.

You’re not “being difficult,” you’re trying to leave with a plan you understand, can afford, and can actually follow through on.

BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU’LL DISCOVER:

• The exact questions that turn a long recommendation list into clear priorities

• What to say when you need options, a lower-cost path, or time to think

• How to pause, hold off, or say no without overexplaining
