  • Year in Review: Sit. Stay. Reflect: 3 Talks That Changed Everything
    Dec 28 2025
    What if the way you've been feeding your dog, talking about money at the vet, or processing grief has been making everything harder than it needs to be?In this vulnerable year-end reflection, I'm switching seats as my practice manager Dianne interviews me about the three conversations that didn't just change my veterinary practice: they changed me.From discovering the hidden truth about pet food labels with advocate Susan Thixton, to processing loss and burnout with Rodney Habib, to finally cracking the code on compassionate money conversations with experts Suzanne Cannon and Ron Sosa, these episodes shook me awake.If you've ever felt overwhelmed by conflicting pet nutrition advice, guilty about what you can afford at the vet, or alone in your grief over losing an animal, this episode will help you feel seen, supported, and ready to move forward with more clarity and less shame 💛KEY INSIGHTS:✨ The shocking difference between "feed grade" and "human grade" pet food ingredients, and why this one distinction changes everything about how you read labels.✨ Why I stopped recommending one food for life and now tell every client to rotate proteins and brands (your dog's gut microbiome will thank you).✨ The three-question framework for evaluating any pet food: What does it mean ethically? Nutritionally? Environmentally?✨ The one question that transforms stressful money conversations at the vet: "What's your budget for today?" (And why most vets are too afraid to ask it.)✨ How flexible payment options help pet parents focus on the value of care instead of just the price, and why this psychological shift changes outcomes.✨ And the truth I keep coming back to: healing is always a partnership. No vet, pet parent, or animal heals alone. It takes community, compassion, and curiosity.🎧 Episode 32: Susan Thixton on Pet Food Transparency & Label Reading🎧 Rodney Habib: Grief, Purpose & the Soul of Veterinary Medicine🎧 Suzanne Cannon & Ron Sosa: How to Talk About Money Without ShameSUSAN THIXTON'S PET FOOD LIST: 2026 ListYOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED NEXT:Starting 2026 with an Ask Dr. Lily episode.

  • Holiday Healing: A Letter From Dr. Lily's Heart - Minisode
    Dec 24 2025

    In this deeply personal minisode, Dr. Lily Chen opens her heart as we close out 2025.

    This isn't a typical episode with a guest expert or clinical protocols. This is Dr. Lily, sitting with you, reflecting on the year—the pets we've lost, the lessons they've taught us, and the reminder to be present in the moments we have.

    If you've lost a pet this year, if you're grieving, if you're feeling the weight of 2025, or if you simply need permission to slow down and be still—this episode is for you.


    WHAT YOU'LL HEAR IN THIS EPISODE:

    💚 Why Dr. Lily started this podcast – Making holistic pet care accessible to everyone, everywhere


    💚 The pets we lost in 2025 – Honoring their presence and the space they left behind


    💚 Pets as mirrors – What our animals teach us about becoming better versions of ourselves


    💚 The quote that started it all – "I want to be the person my dog thinks I am"


    💚 Animal communication & staying open – Dr. Lily's exploration of how our pets stay with us


    💚 The reminder we all need – How to get still, listen, and be present


    💚 A practice that created home – How a 7-year-old's dream became Integrative Pet Wellness Center

  • Pet Parenting with Lisa & Scot: How to Advocate for Your Pet In A Nice Way
    Dec 21 2025

    In this episode, I sit down with Lisa and Scot—the powerhouse husband-and-wife duo behind Woof Creek Pet Wellness—for part two of our conversation, going beyond food and supplements into what really sustains healing: partnership with your vet, and caring for yourself while you care for your animal.


    We talk about how to ask better questions at the clinic (even if you’re nervous), what a collaborative vet relationship actually looks like, simple ways to stay grounded when your pet is struggling, and why your energy at home is part of your pet’s medicine.


    If you’ve ever walked into a vet office feeling intimidated or overwhelmed, this episode is for you.


    KEY INSIGHTS:

    ✨ How to advocate with confidence and kindness. You know your pet best, here’s how to ask for what you need.


    ✨ How a great vet relationship is built on two-way trust, clear priorities (budget, time, philosophy), and the understanding that not everything can be solved in one visit.


    ✨ How to pause before you choose a treatment plan for your pet (when it’s not an emergency).


    ✨ How to track what matters. A simple log of meals, stools, sleep, symptoms, and changes turns guesswork into clarity and helps your vet see patterns.


    ✨ How to build your wellness team and access the best of conventional and holistic care.


    ✨ How pets feel our stress. And how tiny rituals can shift the home “energy” and support healing.
