Most dog trainers get into their own businesses fueled by a desire to help dogs, and help people.

Unfortunately that means starting a business without the knowledge or experience of what running a business actually takes.

And that leads them to working way too much, for way too little, with the wrong kinds of clients and wondering why they are so tired and stressed and have no fucking time for anything except their business.

It doesn't have to be that hard.

Learning how to build, run and scale a dog training business that has systems in place that allow it to operate like a business is vital to being able to stay in business and continue to help dogs and help people.

This podcast is for dog trainers tired of running their business like every other trainer and ready to step into building a fucking dog training empire without it taking over their entire life.

Real talk? None of those things mean shit if you aren't able to deal with your own personal demons. Your shit IS going to show up in business. Your shit IS going to show up in your personal life.

We live in a society that tells us to avoid all "bad" feelings and numb them or avoid them with food, alcohol, binge watching tv, over exercising and a gazillion other ways to run and hide from how we feel.

We don't ever get taught how to just feel our fucking feelings. And so it's hard and scary!

But it doesn't always have to be. And the more we practice it, the easier it gets. The healthier we get. And the more successful and happier we get. (Plus feeling all of our feelings includes all of the ones that make us feel GOOD and the more we feel all of them the more we feel the ones we want to feel).

Learning how to be in our shit, and work through our shit, and show up Authentic AF has knock on effects you can't possibly imagine.

This podcast is all about teaching you how.
