For mother, pet doula, and author Kristen Griffin, caring for animals is more than a career; it’s a way of life. After years as a veterinary technician assisting animals and their owners through illness, injury, and end of life care, Kristen, now a mom of 2, trained as a pet doula to work specifically with families facing the loss of a pet. Today on the Mama Mode podcast, Emily and Kristen discuss the evolution of her career through the lens of motherhood and her next steps as a business owner and author following the loss of her beloved “soul dog,” Magnum. Join us for a conversation about the pull to career, motherhood, and new pursuits as Kristen shares her story to encourage fellow mamas to embrace the “good wrinkles.” For more information about Kristen’s work and interactive children’s book about pet loss, visit @magnumsbridge on Instagram.
