In this episode of Inspire Create Manifest, Joe Longo shares a powerful reminder that sometimes, the only thing that needs to change is where you're standing. Through the metaphor of a single tree viewed from different angles, Joe explores how a subtle shift in perspective can bring profound clarity.

He also opens up about a simple but telling moment, cutting Stella’s nails with Tina, that revealed how often we stay trapped in old stories, even when life is offering us new support.

This episode is an invitation to pause, to see what’s truly in front of you, and to ask yourself: Am I reacting from an old version of me, or am I ready to meet life from where I actually am today?

Themes explored:

• Shifting perspective without changing your life

• Letting go of outdated stories

• Embracing support when it’s offered

Hey friends, welcome back to Inspire Create Manifest. I’m your host, Joe Longo, and today I’m sharing a powerful re-release of a conversation I had with the incredible Jennifer Estel, founder of B & Let Liv and co-owner of Endless Mountains Vineyard & Winery in Benton, Pennsylvania.

Jennifer is a passionate advocate and the heart behind B & Let Liv, a nonprofit dedicated to protecting and advocating for misunderstood dog breeds, especially those labeled as “pit bulls.” The organization works to fight breed-specific legislation, raise awareness, and provide second chances to dogs who’ve been unfairly judged simply because of how they look.

Their mission is rooted in compassion, education, and real action to challenge the myths that surround these beautiful animals. From public outreach to rescue support, B & Let Liv is helping dogs and communities thrive together.

This week, B & Let Liv is proudly participating in NEPA Gives, a powerful 24-hour online giving event that unites individuals across Northeastern Pennsylvania to support local nonprofits making a real impact.

If you’ve ever loved a dog who was misunderstood, or if you believe in second chances and changing outdated systems, this is the moment to support. You can find the donation link in the show notes or head straight to:
