Have you met my beagle Mo?

In light of his recent 15th birthday and some difficult health challenges he is currently facing (with his tail still wagging), I wanted to replay my very first episode of Mo-ments of Experience that tells the origin story of why this podcast is named after my best boy.

Please send some positive vibes Mo’s way by joining me and my close friend and colleague Pantea Vahidi as we explore all things compassion… both human and canine.

Through heartfelt stories, from patients in the hospital to her own father showing up with tea and flatbread late at night, Pantea reveals how presence and small acts of care can completely change the course of someone’s journey.

Together, Geoffrey and Pantea unpack how compassion shows up in the toughest moments, why it’s more powerful than we think, and how it gives hope not just to the person receiving it, but to everyone watching.

This conversation is a reminder that sometimes the most meaningful thing we can offer is simply to be there.
