This is true kinship with animals, a podcast that offers you stories, conversations and possibilities on how you might deepen your relationship with animals and relate to them through a new place of understanding. It’s also a reminder that true kinship is how you participate, not how others receive it. My name is Janet Roper, your companion on this journey.
Episode guest is Jen Pavich, an Executive Coach & Facilitator currently residing and resisting in Austin, TX. She has served on many nonprofit boards, and currently serves on the board of The New Philanthropists. Her experience in advocacy and policy work has enabled Jen to engage in conversations about economic, gender justice and equity.
Jen shares deeply personal stories about cats Luke & Wanda and we discuss the impact & process of grieving animal family members in our society today.
NOTE: You may need to adjust volume towards the end of the episode.
