Manage episode 501014541 series 3653527
Can a 5-acre sanctuary in suburbia change how we treat farmed animals? Michele Waldman says yes—and she’s living proof. In this episode of the Better Life for Animals Podcast, Michele shares how she founded Rosie's Farm Sanctuary in a residential Maryland neighborhood to bring compassion closer to home.
A licensed psychotherapist, Michele uses her deep understanding of trauma to connect people with animals in transformative ways. At Rosie's, rescued farm animals become teachers, and youth become leaders through LEAP internships, immersive tours, and hands-on humane education. From pigs painting snout art to launching state legislation, this sanctuary blends joy, healing, and justice.
Don't miss Michele’s inspiring journey into animal advocacy, healing, and public education.
