Two crises. One overlooked solution.
60 million Americans struggle with mental health. 340,000 rescue dogs are euthanized every year. Both systems are overburdened, underperforming, and wildly expensive.


What if dogs—trained, matched, and integrated through Social Prescriptions—could help solve both?


The TH-CA Podcast explores how trained rescue dogs are a cost-effective, scalable, organic mental health intervention hiding in plain sight. These dogs aren’t just pets—they’re untapped resources for emotional support, social connection, and daily structure.


While the U.S. spends $282B/year on mental illness and $2B/year on shelter systems, TH-CA offers a third path:

✅ A natural, drug-free solution

✅ A second chance for rescue dogs

✅ A new model for care that’s community-backed and tech-powered


Through AI-driven matchmaking, targeted training, and real human-canine connection, we’re building a system that curbs crisis—not just treats symptoms.


Plus, go behind the scenes in “Real Life Business” segments to hear what it really takes to build a hybrid nonprofit-for-profit org from scratch—and disrupt two major industries along the way.


If you care about mental health, rescue dogs, or bold new ideas in public health, this podcast is for you.


Let’s flip the script. Let’s turn America’s Human-PILL Bond into a Human-CANINE Bond. 🐾

  • The Journey Ahead: Embracing Mental Health and Pioneering Solutions
    2025/08/18

    After a summer sabbatical (and another cross-country road trip 🐾), I’m back behind the mic and ready to share some hard truths, hopeful progress, and behind-the-scenes updates from The Human-Canine Alliance.

    In this episode, I talk about:

    • Why stepping away doesn’t mean giving up—and why consistency looks different for every entrepreneur and advocate.
    • The three major solutions the World Economic Forum identified for tackling the global mental health crisis—and how looming cuts will impact our daily lives here in the U.S.
    • The latest peek behind the curtain of building The Human-Canine Alliance as a one-woman startup, with lessons from 15 episodes, 8 months of entrepreneurship, and organic growth in 16 countries.
    • The incredible organizations fueling our mission—from Social Prescribing USA to Sengo, IFundWomen, and Verizon’s Small Business Digital Ready platform.

    If you care about mental health, community, and the life-changing impact of dogs, this podcast is for you. We’re building a movement at the intersection of human wellbeing and canine companionship—and every episode is an invitation to learn, join, and grow with us.

    👉 Don’t just stop here—go back and check out [Episode 14] for the full breakdown of mental health system risks, or our conversation with world-renowned dog trainer Barb De Groodt in [Episode 12]. And stay tuned for my upcoming interview with Dr. Robert Zarr of Parks Rx America this fall.

    The Human-Canine Alliance isn’t just a podcast. It’s a community, a mission, and a call to action. Let’s build it together.
