Today, we’re joined by Jonathan Handel, an entertainment and technology attorney, journalist, and multi-genre writer.

Jonathan is also the author of a unique new book titled Who Do You Want to Be? A quick, 15-minute read with 110 illustrations created by AI.

As kids decide who they want to be when they grow up, is AI narrowing the choices or creating new opportunities?

We talk dogs, grief, purpose, creativity… and how hope and compassion can grow even through life’s toughest seasons.

Julie Hill is a writer, podcaster, and lifelong dog lover who’s been celebrating the human–dog bond since 2006. From her rural home in Shropshire, surrounded by family, dogs, cats, and a lively crew of companion animals, she hosts DogCast Radio, where she’s interviewed world-class trainers, behaviorists, scientists, authors, and rescue advocates from around the globe.

Her heart-dog Buddy the Black Lab took her from the main arena at Crufts to appearances on national TV, and his loss shaped the empathy and passion she brings to her work today.

In 2015, Julie was diagnosed with MS — a moment she describes honestly and powerfully:

“It shut me down, I felt I lost who I was.”

Since then, she’s shared her journey with courage and openness, speaking about anxiety, postpartum struggles, resilience, and the deep healing connection we share with our dogs. She’s also taken the stage as a stand-up comedian — even performing at the legendary London Comedy Store — using humor and storytelling to help others feel less alone.

In this conversation, we talk dogs, grief, purpose, creativity… and how hope and compassion can grow even through life’s toughest seasons.
