After Hours: July 31

After Hours Episode #109: In this episode of After Hours, I’m getting into something that affects all of us, whether we realize it or not—our own triggers. We all carry stuff from our past, and if we’re not paying attention, it can show up at the grooming table and change the way we handle dogs, clients, and even ourselves. I share a few personal stories, talk about why self-awareness is so important, and how learning to stay calm and grounded can completely change the energy you bring into every groom. This isn't about being perfect. It's about recognizing what's going on, doing the work, and showing up a little better every day.
