32. Shake it Off! How My Dog Saved the Show
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
What do a massive performance, a honking bus, shouting cops, and my dog’s nervous system have in common? This week, I’m sharing a real-life moment that started with chaos and ended in clarity—just minutes before stepping onstage to sing for 10,000 people.
In this episode, I dive into:
• How giving something too much importance can throw us off center
• The unexpected wisdom I learned from my dog’s instinct to shake off stress
• How nature offers constant clues for emotional regulation
• A reminder that the universe often steps in to recalibrate when we cling too tightly
If you’ve ever felt thrown off before a big moment—or needed a spiritual reset in the middle of real-world madness—this one’s for you.
