What if your dog’s reactivity, barking, or resistance isn’t a problem to fix—but a plea to be heard?
In this raw and vulnerable solo episode, Em shares why the podcast is changing names—and why that shift reflects a much deeper evolution in how we understand and support our dogs. Through her own journey with Fitz, Em invites you to reconsider what your dog’s behavior is truly trying to communicate.

You'll Learn:

• Hear how training burnout became an invitation to build trust and rest

• Learn how enrichment—not obedience—transformed Em’s relationship with her reactive dog

• Discover the deeper meaning behind the new podcast name, and how it reflects your story too

Press play to step into a more compassionate, curiosity-driven way of living and learning with your dog—starting with this moment of reflection and realignment.
