Since the 1970s, historian Sheila Fitzpatrick has made invaluable contributions to our understanding of the Soviet Union. As a key figure in the "revisionist school" of Soviet history, Fitzpatrick along with other historians opposed entrenched Cold War era narratives about the USSR including (but not limited to) the "totalitarian thesis". Fitzpatrick in particular added texture and complexity in her studies of the Soviet Union by focusing on social history, perspectives "from below" and daily life as well as social and economic advancement & upward mobility during Stalinism. On today's episode, we welcome Sheila Fitzpatrick on as a guest to reflect on the development of Soviet history since the 1970s, her work and what the Soviet past looks like today. Sheila Fitzpatrick is a historian of the Soviet Union and modern Russia. Her books The Cultural Revolution in Russia, 1928-31 (1978), Education and Social Mobility in the Soviet Union, 1921-34 (1979) and The Russian Revolution (1982) were foundational to the field of Soviet social history. She taught for many years at the University of Chicago, before returning to Australia, the country of her birth. Her book, White Russians, Red Peril: A Cold War History of Migration was published by Black, Inc., Melbourne, in 2021; followed by The Shortest History of the Soviet Union in 2022. She is currently working on a monograph, Displacement: Repatriation and Resettlement of Russian and Soviet Displaced Persons after the Second World War, and a biography of Lenin's wife, Nadezhda Krupskaya, under contract to Princeton University Press. She is currently a professor at the Australian Catholic University.
This week on Birdie Little Secrets, Sydney and Kassidy are still buzzing from one of the most captivating golf tournaments of the year! The whispers are true – Rory McIlroy has conquered Augusta, securing his place in history as a Career Grand Slam winner. It was an emotional victory that resonated with everyone, making this year's Masters feel truly special (much to Syd and Kass's envy from afar – manifesting those Augusta National badges for next year!). Beyond the green jacket, the fashion game was strong, with the stylish attendees clearly understanding the assignment. The week was also filled with heartwarming news as Maya and Maverick McNealy announced their growing family, and the Homas clan revealed they're expecting another little one. The beloved Par 3 contest delivered its usual charm, with Frankie Fleetwood stealing hearts (and interviews!), though Claudia and fiancé, Nico Echavarria ultimately took home the coveted crystal. However, not all history made was celebratory. The ladies discuss Nick Dunlap's record-setting high score in a round, acknowledging his resilience in bouncing back and proving that even the best have off days. Syd and Kass also delve into some amateur antics and ponder any potential "hard feelings" between two golfers and a caddie. But the excitement doesn't stop there! Birdie Little Secrets welcomes the delightful Katherine Fitzpatrick to the podcast. Katherine spills all the tee on her recent wedding to Matt Fitzpatrick, offers insights into life on the PGA TOUR and the new TGL season, plus shares some exclusive behind-the-scenes scoop from the Masters.

In this episode, I had the pleasure of chatting with Dr. Sheila Fitzpatrick, a seasoned expert in veterinary practice management and valuation. We dove deep into the complexities of selling veterinary practices, exploring everything from the current market landscape to the nuances of selling to corporate buyers versus private individuals. Dr. Fitzpatrick shared invaluable insights on the importance of exit planning and how it can significantly impact the success of a sale. We also discussed the viability of both private and corporate sales, with Dr. Fitzpatrick highlighting that while corporate buyers often pay higher multiples, many veterinarians prefer selling to private individuals to maintain the essence of their practice. We also touched on the importance of understanding market trends and projections. Dr. Fitzpatrick emphasized the need for practice owners to attend town planning meetings to gain insights into local growth, which can be crucial when considering practice acquisitions. Additionally, she stressed the importance of early exit planning, ideally starting five years before a sale. This involves financial assessments, professional valuations, and preparing the business for a smooth transition. We also discussed the pros and cons of leasing versus owning real estate for veterinary practices, with ownership offering more control and stability. Moreover, Dr. Fitzpatrick shared strategies for enhancing practice value, such as diversifying services and leveraging technology. By investing in advanced diagnostic equipment and expanding service offerings, practices can increase their appeal to potential buyers. We also covered the impact of rising interest rates on practice sales and the challenges of recruitment and retention in the veterinary field. Dr. Fitzpatrick provided practical tips for effective marketing strategies, emphasizing the role of digital marketing and community engagement in attracting and retaining clients. Overall, this episode is packed with expert advice and actionable strategies for veterinary practice owners looking to navigate the complexities of selling their business.
