In this episode of insPAWed, we sit down with Sarah Power to share the remarkable story of Clara, a former street dog from Texas whose journey from fear to trust changed both of their lives.

Sarah first met Clara in 2022 while working at a dog training facility. Clara was extremely fearful of people, and it took months of patience and consistency for Sarah to earn her trust.

Two years later, their relationship changed forever when Clara's human became seriously ill and called Sarah for help. Sarah had once promised she would be there if Clara ever needed her, and she kept that promise.

Today, Clara's life looks very different. She hikes regularly with Sarah, has started her New Hampshire 4,000 footer journey, appeared in a background role for Apple TV's Widows Bay, and now helps Sarah work with other dogs as a demonstration and teaching dog.

In this conversation with host Cyndie Morgan and her four-legged co-host, Nigel, we explore trust, patience, keeping a promise, and the incredible transformation that can happen when a fearful dog is given the chance to thrive.

In this episode of insPAWed, we sit down with Lindsey Brynjolfsson, founder of Squirrel: A Dog Bistro, to explore how Hops, Barley, and Sasha became part of a journey that ultimately inspired her business.

Hops came into Lindsey’s life on the same day her father entered hospice and became her constant companion for the next 10 years. Later, when Barley began experiencing food sensitivities, Lindsey started looking more closely at what she was feeding her dogs and searching for better options.

Those experiences helped inspire Squirrel: A Dog Bistro, a business built around thoughtfully made food and treats for dogs.

In this conversation with host Cyndie Morgan and her four-legged co-host, Nigel, we explore love, loss, canine nutrition, and how the animals beside us can quietly lead us somewhere we never expected to go.

In this episode of insPAWed, we sit down with Michelle Aulson, founder of Goats To Go, to explore how one special fainting goat named Pluto became an unforgettable part of her growing business.

Born in 2018, Pluto quickly stood out with his calm personality. While many goats love to jump, Pluto preferred to keep all four feet on the ground, making him the perfect ambassador for goat yoga classes, photos with visitors, and public events.

Today, Pluto leads many of Goats To Go's popular winter goat hikes and spends his summers helping clear invasive plants like poison ivy and multiflora rose through environmentally friendly grazing. What began with a few goats has grown into a business that combines education, outdoor experiences, sustainable land management, and unforgettable encounters.

In this conversation with host Cyndie Morgan and her four-legged co-host, Nigel, we explore Pluto's unique personality, the surprising ways goats help both people and the environment, and how one remarkable goat continues to inspire Michelle's work every day.

Content Note: This episode includes conversations about cancer, grief, and pet loss.

In this episode of insPAWed, we sit down with Erin Erler, owner of Cakes by Erin, to share the extraordinary bond she shared with her soul dog, Bo.

Just months apart, Erin and Bo were both diagnosed with cancer. Throughout Erin's treatments, surgeries, and recovery, Bo never left her side, offering comfort, unconditional love, and quiet strength when she needed it most.

During one of Erin's surgeries, Bo's own condition took a heartbreaking turn. While Erin was still recovering in the hospital, Bo crossed the Rainbow Bridge. Although they couldn't say goodbye in person, Erin believes Bo waited until he knew she would be okay before letting go.

Their journey together became the inspiration behind Bo's Blessings, a nonprofit dedicated to helping families facing the financial burden of caring for pets with cancer, ensuring more people can focus on making memories with the animals they love.

In this conversation with host Cyndie Morgan and her four-legged co-host, Nigel, we explore the extraordinary bond between humans and their soul dogs, navigating illness together, grief, healing, and how love continues long after goodbye.

In this episode of insPAWed, we sit down with Haley Miller, founder of Soul Dogs Resources, to explore how one rescue dog changed the course of her life.

When Haley first met Kahlúa, he was shy and wanted nothing to do with her. After spending hours patiently sitting with him, she called him by the name inspired by his beautiful coloring. For the first time, he looked at her, and in that moment, Haley knew they belonged together.

Kahlúa became much more than a rescue dog. He became Haley's service dog, her constant companion, and the reason she chose to keep moving forward through life's most difficult moments. Their extraordinary bond inspired Haley to create Soul Dogs Resources, helping others experience the healing connection between people and animals.

In this conversation with host Cyndie Morgan and her four-legged co-host, Nigel, we explore the power of rescue, unconditional love, mental health, and how one dog can change the course of a life.

In this episode of insPAWed, we sit down with Chuck Chopak of Team Stella to explore how his French Bulldog Stella became a nationally certified therapy dog making a difference throughout the Haverhill community.

From the very beginning, Stella and Chuck formed a close bond. Because Stella had not yet completed her vaccinations when she first came home, Chuck carried her everywhere in a front sling during her early months, creating a strong connection that only deepened over time.

Known for her friendly personality and love of people, especially children, Stella naturally connected with everyone she met during daily walks through downtown Haverhill. After completing Canine Good Citizen training, Chuck and Stella were encouraged to explore therapy dog work, eventually becoming a nationally certified Pet Partners Therapy Team.

Today, Team Stella visits skilled nursing and rehabilitation facilities throughout the area and participates in Stories with Stella at the Haverhill Public Library, where children read to Stella during special sessions designed to build confidence and connection.

In this conversation with host Cyndie Morgan and her four-legged co-host, Nigel, we explore the bond between humans and dogs, the healing power of therapy animals, and the impact one small dog can have on an entire community.

In this episode of insPAWed, we sit down with Lin O’Neil-Clark of LinSynergy to explore how her soul dog Roo helped reshape her priorities, purpose, and path during one of life’s most challenging seasons.

As Roo aged and developed Sundowners, Lin faced a difficult decision between returning fully to work or being present for her beloved companion during her final years. Lin chose Roo.

That decision became a turning point, leading Lin to lean more deeply into her gifts as a Master Reiki Practitioner and Death Doula, guiding her toward work rooted in presence, compassion, energy, and sacred end-of-life support.

While Roo has since passed, her impact continues through Lin’s life and work today, alongside the companionship of Merlin.

In this conversation with host Cyndie Morgan and her four-legged co-host, Nigel, we explore the bond between humans and aging pets, navigating difficult life decisions, and how animals can guide us toward our deepest gifts.

What started as one woman and her dog in New York City turned into a nationwide movement built on connection, community, and joy.

In this episode of insPAWed, we sit down with Susan Godwin, founder of PupScouts Org, to share how her first dog, Tasha, became the inspiration behind a 501(c)(3) organization with troops across the country.

When Susan moved to NYC, Tasha was more than a pet. She was her companion, her sense of safety, and her constant in a brand new chapter of life. The two of them explored the city together, traveled side by side, and built a bond that would shape everything that came next.

One small moment changed it all. A friend showed Susan a dog-sized Brownie uniform, and a simple idea sparked. What if dogs had their own scouting experience… earning badges, attending meetings, and bringing people together?

That idea turned into PupScouts.

Today, PupScouts continues to grow with a mission to help the dog community and make humans smile. Tasha, the original National Troop Leader, may be gone, but her legacy lives on through Timothy, Tabitha, and every PupScout across the country.

In this conversation with host Cyndie Morgan and co-host Nigel, we talk about how one dog can change your life, how ideas turn into impact, and how love continues long after loss.

In this episode of insPAWed, we sit down with Jodi Burgett, creator of the Holistic Pet Hub, to explore how her dogs Otis and Otto inspired her path and purpose.

What began as a desire to better understand her dogs’ health challenges led Jodi to question the products, food, and ingredients many pet parents trust. With a background in functional medicine, she began researching pet products through a new lens, focusing on what truly supports long-term health and longevity.

What she discovered sparked something bigger.

Today, Jodi has created the Holistic Pet Hub App, designed to give pet parents clarity and confidence when choosing products for their pets. Her work helps others make more informed, intentional decisions without fear or overwhelm.

In this conversation with host Cyndie Morgan and her four-legged co-host, Nigel, we explore how Otis and Otto turned love into purpose and how their impact continues to help pets and their people live healthier lives.
