Today is episode # 200 and I have the most special guest on with me, the Founder and Executive Director of my “happy place” Catskill Animal Sanctuary (CAS). More than 300 rescued farmed animals call CAS’s 150-acres “home”. I couldn’t be more delighted to invite you into this intimate conversation about my favorite topic, animals. 

In this episode we discuss: -How Kathy went from high school English teacher to animal sanctuary founder -How she navigates compassion fatigue -What our food industry doesn’t want us to think about…the animals -Why she believes loving animals isn’t enough -The most profound thing she’s ever learned from an animal
