In this episode, we talk with Brittany: an end-of-life care worker who spends her days witnessing the deep, often unspoken love between people and their pets. With a background in funeral homes and her current work in a pet crematorium, Brittany offers a rare and moving perspective on how we grieve, how we love, and what our pets teach us about loss.

She opens up about the surprising differences between human and pet grief, shares how she knew her new husband was “the one,” and gets beautifully vulnerable about the emotional baggage we all carry…and what it means to be loved through it.

This is an episode about a type of love we sometimes overlook… but really, how can you overlook the love of a cat or dog?

If you’ve got a furry friend in your life, this is one you won’t want to miss.

Grab them a treat, get cozy, and tune in.

Episode 4: The “What If” Principle.
This week, we sit down with Jessica, artist and environmental consultant, to talk about her powerful journey toward self-love—one shaped by solo parenting, resilience, and the kind of clarity that only comes through challenge. She opens up about raising a child with special needs on her own, the lessons that cracked her open, and the strength she didn’t know she had.
Jessica also shares her “What If Principle,” a simple but profound mindset shift, and the best (and worst) advice she’s ever received.
This one’s honest, tender, and full of the kind of wisdom that sticks.
