Hey y'all! We are back! We are launching Season 2 with this episode. Because you gotta start 2022 with Season 2 for the beauty of the number synchronicity.
In this episode, I interview my bestie and soon to be yours, Dr. Bree Conklin. Dr. Bree is an LCSW, with a Doctor of Social Work, and has recently opened the second animal sanctuary and therapeutic care farm in the United States. She talks to us about her own grief journey, her passion for making sure all humans feel belonging, and about finding the beauty and care of the mountains so comforting that she and her husband moved here after a life born and raised in Pensacola, Florida. She and her husband, Lyle, now live  in Knoxville with all their dogs (6) and their carefarm animals. You can find more about the Starlight Carefarm here:
