In this two part episode, I dive into a conversation with guest  storyteller, Shrig, about how an unexpected journey into dog walking  offered her a unique form of healing and the space she needed to process  her trauma. We explore the light-hearted side of healing, blending  personal stories with pop culture references that brought laughter and a  lightness to the discussion. It's a reminder that the path to recovery  from deep-seated pain doesn't always have to be heavy; it can also be  filled with moments of joy, laughter, and a rediscovery of happiness. Join us as Shrig shares how these walks with dogs not only helped her to  move through the past, but also showed her how much she's grown and  that joy can indeed find its way back into our lives.
