Ep. 130 - Mental Health with Jen Blough
Content warning for talk of suicide and suicidal thoughts. This week Jen Blough joins us again to discuss suicide in animal rescue. Recently, a well known rescuer took her life. While I do not know the specifics surrounding her situation, toxicity and harassment in the animal rescue world is all too common. Jen and I discuss risk factors for suicidality, things to look out for, how to be a support, and resources for yourself or those you know. If you or someone you know is struggling, please reach out for help. Humans were built for community, let's remember to be kind to each other and offer support when we can. Jennifer Blough is a licensed professional counselor, compassion fatigue coach, author of To Save a Starfish: A Compassion Fatigue Workbook for the Animal Welfare Warrior and the upcoming book Beyond Compassion Fatigue, and host of the Beyond Compassion Fatigue podcast ( https://beyondcompassionfatigue.podbean.com/).

Ep. 127 - Doug Green and Shirelle
This week I talk with Doug Green about his books The Teachings of Shirelle: Life Lessons from a Divine Knucklehead and A Dog of Many Names. We get into his history with rescue dogs, what led him to want to write a book about his experiences with Shirelle, and what we can all learn from dogs. I definitely walked away from this book and this interview with a renewed perspective on what it means to live with dogs. The Teachings of Shirelle: Life Lessons from a Divine Knucklehead and A Dog of Many Names are available directly from the publisher at www.circuitbreakerbooks.com or wherever books are sold, but I do recommend checking out www.bookshop.org to support your local booksellers!Sponsor:LIX - check out www.lixpetwellness.com to learn more about CBD for pets.
