In this podcast episode, I discuss how we can come to know each of our animals as unique individuals. I explore the ways their personalities, lived experiences, and even past lives influence both how we experience them and how they move through the world in their own ways. I delve into the distinction between our literal consciousness and our higher consciousness and emphasize why it’s important to see our animals as individuals. At the end of the episode, I offer some ideas on how you can begin to explore or deepen this perspective for yourself.

This episode was inspired by a thoughtful question from a client: "Can you communicate with all of my animals during a session, or would that be too confusing?"

I loved this question so much that I decided to answer it for everyone. In this episode, I share how I experience each animal’s energy as unique and distinct, the process I go through when connecting with multiple animals in a session, and how I stay confident about which energy I’m tuned into.

This episode offers valuable insights for animal stewards who want to understand how this process works. Plus, it’s packed with practical tips and tools for Animal Communicators—and those aspiring to be—who are eager to learn how to navigate and develop this skill for themselves.

Join Breanne Kerr and me as we dive into a conversation about the “thaw-out” period horses experience when given the freedom to discover who they truly are.

In this powerful and informative episode, we explore:- What it means to give horses a true choice and voice in their lives.- The “thaw out” period: what it is, why it’s so important, and how we’ve supported our horses through it.- Our personal journeys of allowing our horses to navigate this process—what it taught us, how it shaped them, and the projections we faced along the way. - The evolving nature of letting horses express their true selves and how that process unfolds over time.- What your horse might experience during this journey, how to prepare yourself as the human, and real-life examples from our experiences and others we’ve witnessed.- Practical advice for anyone looking to embark on this path with their horses.

Toward the end, I also share a heartfelt reflection from my gelding, Treu, who offered me a perfectly timed reminder the day before we recorded!

Packed with stories, wisdom, and lived experiences, this episode highlights the importance of creating space for horses to embark on their own journeys of self-discovery.

Transitions, like many things, are both inevitable and a natural part of life. However, they can also be complex and deeply impactful for our animals. From moving homes to welcoming or losing herd mates, processing trauma or injury, and even transitioning from physical form, there are many moments when our animals may seek support as they navigate change.

In this episode, I’ll discuss:

- What transitions are, and the many forms they can take in an animal’s life.

- Why it’s important to support our animals during these times.

- How we can support them, using tools like animal communication, energy work, flower essences, or simply offering time, space, and presence.

I’ll touch on a variety of transitions and situations that we can be mindful of when supporting our animals. This is just the beginning of a larger conversation, and I’d love to hear from you. If you have specific questions or topics about transitions that you’d like me to explore, please let me know!

In this episode, I dive deep into the topic of "Permission"—what it is, who grants it, why it matters, and how my relationship with permissions has evolved in my own practice.

This is a powerful and thought-provoking conversation that invites you to reflect on how you feel about permissions and if you feel they are important. Join me as I explore this essential, often overlooked aspect of Animal Communication.

In today’s episode, I had the privilege of sitting down with Alex Aubrey Paquette to discuss a Soul Collective session I channelled for "The School Horses" at her family’s farm. During our conversation, Alex and I explored the powerful, higher-perspective messages shared by the horses, including their thoughts on being part of a collective within riding and lesson programs. We delve into the valuable reframes they offer to us as guardians and caretakers, highlighting the importance of contrast and the unique roles each being has in their life. This episode offers a rare glimpse into how a Soul Collective is held, allowing you to hear the wisdom of 18 horses who stepped forward to share their experiences and perspectives as “School Horses.”

Alex Aubrey Paquette is a mother of three, a wife, an animal guardian, and a business owner. She and her husband run a family-owned property that has been in his family for over 60 years, where Alex first discovered her passion for horses at the age of 10. Their property is home to 47 horses, including Alex's personal horses, boarded horses, and school horses. Alex is committed to honouring the horses and supporting their unique purposes, while also being a responsible guardian in the pursuit of their purpose.

The Soul Contracts we hold with our animals can be some of the most profound, supportive, and life-changing relationships we experience. In this episode, I explore my understanding of Soul Contracts and share personal insights, experiences, and explanations of how these contracts connect us to our animal partners.

I’ll take you through my journey of discovering Soul Contracts, how they became an integral part of my practice, and what a Soul Contract session with me looks like. We’ll discuss what Soul Contracts truly are and reveal which animals in our lives we share them with (hint: it’s all of them!).

There’s a deep, undeniable bond—one that goes beyond the roles of caregiver and companion—that reminds us there’s so much more to these relationships than meets the eye.
