Animal Mad but Qualified: Lessons from Award Winning Animal Behaviourist Lisa Sinnott

from Seasoned Professional

In this episode, I sit down with Lisa Sinnott, an award-winning dog and cat behaviourist who has been featured on BBC Breakfast, The Sun, and the Financial Times. After completing her training in clinical animal behaviour at the University of Edinburgh, Lisa has built a reputation as “animal mad but qualified,” bringing both passion and expertise to her work.Lisa shares stories from her childhood, growing up in a loving family while navigating the challenges of an absent father, and the resilience she drew from her gran's influence. She opens up about the winding journey of figuring out her path in life, the inspiration that led her to start her own business, and the support network that helped her along the way. One of the themes that resonated most is the power of community. Lisa is proof that success doesn’t have to be a solo pursuit, by seeking guidance and leaning on others, goals can be reached faster and with greater strength.This conversation offers practical advice for anyone considering pet ownership, insight into what it takes to build a career you love, and a refreshing reminder that resilience, support, and passion can carry you further than you might imagine.🔗 Links from the episodeLisa Sinnott on LinkedIn (where dog & cat advice session links will be posted)St. Paws Training Academy ❤️ Subscribe to my channel for moreYouTube📲 Find Seasoned Professional on social media!InstagramTikTokInterested in being a guest on the podcast?Click to apply!See you next Sunday!xx Hannah Octavia(Theme music curtesy of Fran Lusty's song, "Functioning Adult") Hosted on Acast.

Bauer, Florian Schneider, Axel Weber & Dr. Tillman Bardt The Newmorrow PodCast is more than a podcast — it's a platform for open dialog on the future of our business, a platform for those building what doesn’t exist yet. Here, we share and embrace our passion for the hospitality industry, but we won’t romanticize the journey. We ask the tough questions, confront uncomfortable truths, and prepare for a future that resists easy answers. We believe that the tougher and wilder times become, the more openly, honestly and humanely people need to talk to each other and act together. We believe, openness, togetherness, and truthfulness should also be cornerstones of a professional community to develop our utopian idea of „open source“. This is a space where visionaries don’t just imagine the future — they wrestle with the paradoxes that shape it: success vs. happiness, data vs. instinct, stability vs. reinvention. Join leaders, entrepreneurs, and thinkers as they share not what made them — but what’s actively shaping them, now and next. So tune in
