In an industry where competition is the name of the game, it can feel very lonely. Imagine having someone in the industry who looks out for you, supports you, and collaborates with you. And then imagine if that person was your best friend…
On this episode we speak with two pairs of best friends who have chosen to embrace personal connection, friendship, and collaboration over competition. Over the years, their relationships have gone from professional connections to something deeper and they now consider each other to be among the most important people in their lives. In this conversation, they share the joys of what it's like having the support of another person who knows the world you live and work in and how they've been able to better grow their business – and help you grow yours!
Join us for this uplifting and inspiring conversation about the value of best friends in work and life! If you have a similar relationship, you’ll understand all of the dynamics of these two pairs of best friends. If you don’t have a best friend, you’ll want one (and you’ll want to be one to someone else)!

Description:
Join us as we talk to Meryl Cohen about her passion for her work, her love of working with off breeds in protection sports, how she feels about how women are treated in the industry, and her thoughts on bullying in the industry. This conversation covers a wide range of subjects. You may/may not agree with her thoughts but you’ll likely find the conversation thought-provoking! Hope you enjoy it!
Living and Working with a Chronic Illness
In this discussion, we sit down with 3 women who live and work with chronic illness. Owning a business while having a chronic illness requires quite a bit of planning and communication – and boundaries and self care. You’ll hear how these women juggle clients, marriage, schedules, friendships, and medical issues. Some days are particularly rough but you’ll hear them laugh about some of the most absurd parts of living and working with a chronic illness. Hope you enjoy this one but also gain more insight into the complex and yet uplifting lives that these women (and others) live.

The LGBTQ Experience in Dog Training
In this discussion, we sit down with 4 women who are members of the LGBTQ community – and the dog training community. We talk about what have been the challenges of being LGBTQ in the business but also in life, how they feel about the way in which they’ve been treated in the industry, and what they want their non-LGBTQ friends and allies to know. Join us for this open and heartfelt conversation. We learned so much and hope our listeners do too!
