The Snail That Got Away – my 1st Entrepreneurial Venture This article was previously published February 27, 2014 and was updated on September 10, 2023 Not many people know this, but my first entrepreneurial business when I was 28 years old was as a snail farmer! I was so excited! I joined the Snail Farmers Association of America. My company was called Texcargo (a play on the word Texas and Escargot) and my mission was to supply fresh, live, happy snails to the best restaurants in town. Possessing few carpenter skills, I nevertheless managed to build a snail corral to contain my little slimy beasties, and went to work gathering the perfect snails for my collection. I worked very hard to create the perfect environment and foods for them to flourish and multiply. And multiply they did. I soon had tiny bb sized snail babies climbing everywhere! I planned their […]

How to Care for a Sick Dog and How Pet Insurance Can Help Most vets will tell you that the most common thing that brings a dog into the clinic is vomiting. It is the most obvious symptom of illness, unlike a low grade fever or lethargy. Dog owners may not readily recognize that their dog is less active or isn’t eating quite right, but will never miss vomiting. You also can miss the sound a dog makes when vomiting. Most dog owners get panicky when they hear this sound, one, because they don’t immediately know what the cause is, and two, they don’t know if they will be able to clean it up completely. Vomiting is one of the most common reasons for going to a clinic or emergency room. The big question is, when do you worry that vomiting is a sign of something very serious, and what […]

Top Tips for Communicating with our Animal Friends Working as an animal communicator, horse and rider trauma consultant and empowerment coach, I am often asked how people can get started when they want to learn how to “talk” to animals! Love and respect are the two most important things to remember when communicating with our wonderful animal friends and never underestimate their wisdom! It never ceases to amaze me, just how aware they are about our physical and emotional issues and they love to help us in making sure we are as happy and healthy as possible. So it is […]

Intuitive Animal Communication: How can you communicate successfully if you can’t hear animals talking in “words”? Is it possible to communicate successfully with animals if you can’t hear the animal’s voice talking to you in words? via GIPHY If you’ve ever felt stuck, blocked, walled off when you tried to communicate intuitively with animals and you haven’t developed all your senses beyond clairaudience (hearing the animal’s voice in words in your mind)… Or, you got intuitive, telepathic messages from animals that you don’t know how to interpret or translate… Or, your accuracy is a hit or miss kind of thing because you can’t hear their voice in words, then this is for you. The problem isn’t your fault. But it can get complicated because there are a lot of issues to sort out as you learn to use your sensing (intuitive) abilities. This is why I teach that learning animal […]

My life’s purpose is to communicate with animals. A wise mentor once told me that the key to finding your passion is to look at your rants. What do you rant about? What gets you upset, what do you want to shout from the rooftops, what do you wish everyone on the planet knew? For me, my rant is the fact that animals have a voice and we need to take the time to hear them, to respect them, and to understand their unique wisdom, because they are often our best teachers and healers. It hurts my heart to know they are mistreated, misunderstood, and they even lose their lives, through no fault of their own, but simply because their humans were so blind and deaf that they didn’t take the time to listen to them, to honor their voice, their wisdom, their purpose. For instance I was able to […]
