On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I talk about my deep connection to a remarkable three-legged deer ​that we've named Trixie ​- who lives in the woods near my home.

​F​or the past 6 or 7-ish years, Trixie has become a symbol of resilience and hope for me, as she continues to thrive and even start a family of her own, despite all the odds stacked against her. 

When I recently captured a video of Trixie​ in our yard, it unexpectedly went viral, resonating with ​now over 1.​7 million viewers!

I believe it's because in these challenging times, Trixie's story serves as a beacon of hope!

She’s a reminder that with resilience and determination, we can overcome adversity, too. 

Even amidst the darkness and division in the world, Trixie shows us the power of maintaining an optimistic, and possibility-focused mindset. 

I also emphasize that hope is not naive, but a rebellious act of courage. 

By dreaming big and walking ​"as if​" our hopes have already been realized, we can tap into a higher realm of possibility beyond what our physical eyes can see.

Surrounding ourselves with a supportive community like The Nest is also key - to sustaining this hopeful mindset when the world seems bleak. 

Ultimately, I believe that love will prevail, even in the face of hatred and negativity.

Trixie's story is a testament to this, and I hope it inspires listeners to cultivate more hope, resilience and compassion.

Not just for themselves, but for ​other humans, all animals and our indivisible shared humanity.
