    How to Make Mindful Buying Decisions with Charly & Larry Pruden of Pawdega

    In this conversation, I chat with Charly and Larry Pruden, founders of Pawdega, an e-commerce store dedicated to providing safe and healthy products for pet parents. They discuss their journey into pet health, the importance of vetting pet products, and the challenges of navigating the pet care market. The conversation emphasizes the need for transparency in ingredient sourcing, the impact of marketing buzzwords, and actionable advice for pet parents to make informed choices for their pets' health. My goal for my listeners is to walk away with a little more knowledge on how to navigate endless options of supplements and pet products by understanding what may qualify as good sourcing and what ingredients to look out for.

    Whole Body Therapy with Dr. Laurie McCauley

    I think my guest today, Dr. Laurie McCauley, is the smartest person I have ever talked to. Dr. Laurie has really pioneered and revolutionized canine body conditioning and therapy. When I met her at the Feed Real Summit this past October and asked her to be on my podcast, I didn't know we'd take our conversation into the many directions we did. Dr. Laurie knows a whole lot about many supportive body modalities and we chat about many in this episode, my favorite being the tuning forks! Follow Dr. Laurie on Facebook, IG, and YouTube.
