191. Why You Train Differently To Everyone

Have you ever watched a friend train their gundog and thought, “Why am I reacting like this, and they’re so calm about the exact same thing?” It’s easy to fall into the comparison trap, feeling like you’re doing it all wrong simply because your approach is different. But what if that difference wasn’t a weakness, but a key to unlocking your most effective training style?We recently sat down with our brilliant LWDG mindset coach, Emma Liddell, a trained psychotherapist, who has noticed powerful patterns in the way we women handle and train our dogs. Her new framework, The Dog Handler Archetypes, is a self-awareness tool designed to help you understand your core drivers, work with your strengths, and finally soften the edges that might be holding you back. It’s a game-changer that goes beyond obedience and straight to the heart of why you train the way you do.Thanks for being here.
