From Policing to Puppy Yoga with Erin Gorrie

You know those WTF life pivots that make zero sense on paper but somehow end up being pure magic?

That is exactly the story Erin Gorrie shared with us this week on WTF: Where’s the Fun?! 🎙️

Erin is the founder of Muskoka Puppy Yoga (yes, puppy yoga is a real thing 🙌🐶) and her journey is WILD! From modeling to policing to creating a viral wellness movement that has now brought joy to millions.

Inside this episode, we laugh, swap stories, and explore:
✨ The WTF moment that inspired Puppy Yoga in the first place
✨ How joy (and puppies) became Erin’s greatest healing tool
✨ What it takes to walk away from an identity that no longer fits
✨ And of course… puppy chaos stories you do not want to miss 🐾

This one is pure fun, with a side of goosebumps.
