Episode 010: Mentors, Rebels & the Courage to Do It Your Way

We'd LOVE to hear from you!

In this episode of Unruly By Nature, Kim, Rachel, and Sue reflect on the teachers, mentors, animals, and experiences that shaped the way they work with dogs, people, plants, and life itself.

From pioneers like Caroline Ingraham, Carolyn Myss, Sarah Fisher, and Cathy Skipper, to the animals who challenged conformity and demanded curiosity, this conversation explores what it truly means to learn, evolve, and step into your own way of doing things.

The trio discusses courage in the face of pushback, blending science with intuition, honoring those who came before us, and releasing the need to conform to rigid systems. Woven throughout are reflections on rebellion, experimentation, mentorship, naming animals, essential oils, and trusting what resonates.

This episode is an invitation to honor your influences, question authority with compassion, and give yourself permission to follow the path that feels true — even when it’s unruly.

Thanks for wandering the wild edges with us on Unruly By Nature.

If you loved this conversation, share it with someone who’s ready to explore the deeper side of life with dogs.
