The Grounded Communicator

In this powerful and deeply vulnerable episode, I’m joined once again by my sister Breanne Kerr for a conversation that many animal guardians will one day face—but few talk about openly. Breanne recently navigated the transition of her beloved dog, Stitch, and the journey was anything but straightforward. What made Stitch’s transition so complex and so poignant was the profound disconnect between...

In this honest and eye-opening episode, I’m joined by Breanne Kerr for a conversation I’ve been wanting to have for a long time.

We talk about the moments that have made us pause, the jokes that weren’t really jokes, the...

In today’s episode, we’re diving into a concept that quietly shapes the emotional, behavioural, and energetic lives of our animals—the Family Matrix. This is something I first learned about in my early Animal Communication training, and over the years, it has become one of the most insightful, revealing lenses during sessions. While many people naturally see their animals as part of the family, fe...

One of the hardest moments any guardian faces is knowing when it’s time to help an animal transition. In this episode of The Grounded Communicator, I open an honest, compassionate conversation about the timing of euthanasia — what it means to “make the call,” how to navigate the uncertainty around when it’s right, and how to support both your animal and yourself through it. We explore what “right...

Grief doesn’t always follow ownership. In this episode, I explore a type of loss that many of us experience but rarely talk about — grieving an animal who isn’t technically “ours.” Whether it’s a barn mate, a foster, a friend’s beloved companion, or an animal you’ve shared space and connection with, these bonds can run incredibly deep. And when those animals pass away, move, or transition out of o...

Welcome back to The Grounded Communicator! Season Two begins with a check-in and life update.

In this personal and reflective episode, I’m sharing an update on the future of the podcast and what’s unfolding behind the scenes.

Tune in to hear more about why this break feels aligned, what’s coming down the pi...

In this episode, I’m continuing the exploration of Soul Contracts and going beyond the introduction of them that I gave back in part one to share deeper insights into how they shape our relationships and lives. We’ll look at Soul Contracts from a higher perspective: not as a fixed itinerary, but as evolving journeys influenced by our own choices and the choices of our animals. I talk about why we...

In this illuminating and insightful episode, I dive deep into the fascinating and often emotional topic of animal reincarnation.

What does it really mean to receive an Animal Communication session from your animal? In this episode, I’m diving deep into the often-overlooked role of the guardian — how your energy, openness, mindset and perspective can shape the session and what your animal shares.

In this episode, I explore how to navigate the more tender, edgy, or uncomfortable messages that can come through in animal communication sessions. The things that may be difficult for a guardian to hear and equally challenging for a communicator to deliver.  I talk about staying neutral, checking for accuracy, and honoring the animal’s voice, even when the message feels emotionally charged or une...

Join me this week as I dive into your questions! In this episode, I'm answering queries from our listeners on a variety of intriguing topics: What are their feelings on Animal Communication?

I explore the complexities of each question while offering perspect...

In this episode, I’m sharing my perspective on the difference between being an animal intuitive and an animal communicator — and why I see them as two distinct stages in the journey of connecting with animals.

What happens to our beloved animals after they transition from their physical bodies?

In this episode, we explore how animals communicate the specific support they need—emotionally, physically, mentally, and spiritually.
