In this episode, I chat with the founder and managing director of WOW Saddles: David Kempsell. WoW is a revolutionary saddle brand known for its fully adjustable, modular design that supports both horse and rider through every stage of development and performance. We dive into the inspiration behind WoW, the technology that sets it apart (like carbon fiber trees, Flair air flocking, and interchangeable seats and panels) and how this system helps improve comfort, movement, and balance. I've personally ridden in WOW Saddles for over 10 years and have always appreciated their adjustability, comfort, and unique look. Saddle fit is such a personal and important part of horse welfare, and when you find something that works, it's a huge relief. This episode isn't sponsored, I simply love talking about things I genuinely use and believe in. If you're curious about saddle fitting, have a tricky horse to fit, or are tired of trialling saddles that never quite work, you'll enjoy this conversation!

Todd Baylis is the Chief Customer Officer of Bloomerang, a data management system designed to "manage your entire constituent ecosystem, including donors, volunteers, sponsors, grant givers, and more. Your result: higher fundraising revenue and less donor attrition. " Todd joins host Steve Boland to talk about encouraging your audiences (supporters, first-time donors, recurring donors...) to share more information with your charity to improve your connections and outcomes. Todd talks about how much information to ask for at the outset, a willingness to come back to audiences and request more information over time, communications preferences, and much more. Todd emphasizes the maxim that "if it's not in the database, it didn't happen" - meaning an emphasis on recording interactions with community (phone calls, personal meetings, handwritten notes) in a data tool allows a better connection over time.

This week we're diving into the art of asking good questions. This is one of the most powerful tools for building reading comprehension and critical thinking. We'll explore how to model curiosity, guide kids beyond “yes or no” answers, and help them interact with texts in a meaningful way. Whether you've got a brand-new reader or a middle schooler flying through novels, asking better questions can change the way your homeschool approaches reading.

The Fourth of July might be a favorite for humans, but for many pets, it's more like a horror movie. From hiding in bathtubs to bolting through doors, the fallout from fireworks can be intense and dangerous. And hey, we know what you're thinking: “Isn't it a little late for firework advice?” Maybe. But let's be honest. Most of us aren't exactly winning awards for being proactive. So consider this your loving nudge: even if this year's already gone boom, you've got a whole year to make next time better. Future-you (and your pet) will thank you.In this episode of Enrichment for the Real World, Emily and Allie break down how to create a plan that helps your pet feel safe and secure when the fireworks start booming. With real-world examples of ways we keep our pets calm, simple tweaks that make a big difference, and how to prep ahead of time (because no one wants to be scrambling on July 3rd). If your pet's fireworks motto is “nope, nope, NOPE,” this episode can help you prep for next year.  TLDL (too long, didn't listen): 1️⃣ Prepping ahead matters – The sooner you start practicing safety and calm, the more options you have to support your pet.2️⃣ Safe spaces are powerful – A thoughtfully crafted retreat can help your pet feel protected and in control during chaos.3️⃣ It's not just behavior—it could be pain – Noise sensitivities may be connected to underlying pain or discomfort. Don't overlook what your pet might be trying to tell you.For the full episode show notes, including additional resources, join us here.Ellen's 4-week live course, At Ease: Safe Spaces For Home and On-The-Go, is enrolling!

How much can a dog's breed really tell you? In this episode of Enrichment for the Real World, illustrator and author Lili Chin (she/her) returns to talk about her newest book, Dogs of the World: A Gallery of Pups from Purebreds to Mutts. You probably know Lili from her beloved body language infographics and viral artwork, and now she's helping us better understand the complex, fluid, and very human world of breed identity.Listen as Lili and Emily dive into why “solo dog” is a better term than “dog aggressive,” how breed traits reflect more about human ideals than actual dogs, and why terms like “pariah” and “primitive” might not mean what you think. Blending thoughtful art with a global perspective, this episode invites us to rethink breed labels and focus on what really matters: the individuality of every dog.TLDL (too long, didn't listen):1️⃣ Breed ≠ Personality – A dog's breed can't predict everything about them. Breed ideals reflect human expectations more than canine realities, and every dog is an individual shaped by context, not just genetics.2️⃣ Language Matters – Terms like “solo dog” instead of “aggressive,” and carefully choosing breed labels, can reduce harm and better reflect reality. Lili's work challenges us to use language that is inclusive, accurate, and respectful.3️⃣ A Broader View of Breeds – Lili breaks down the variety of dog types, like purebreds, landraces, and free-ranging dogs, and explains how understanding this spectrum can deepen our appreciation for dogs in all contexts.Links & Resources from the Episode

We talk a lot about recognizing when our pets are becoming more stressed. But what about when they're calming down? In this episode of Enrichment for the Real World, Emily Strong walks you through a practical and insightful skill: identifying your pet's ladder of de-escalation. It's the crucial flip side to recognizing escalation, and it is just as important for supporting your pet's full stress recovery.Emily breaks down a six-step process to help you recognize when your pet is moving toward relaxation and how to tell the difference between “just coping” and “truly relaxed.” From self-soothing behaviors to the difference between “resting” and really resting, this episode is filled with tips, common mistakes to avoid, and why you should absolutely film your dog sometimes.TLDL (too long, didn't listen): 3 Key Takeaways1️⃣ The Ladder of De-Escalation Matters – Understanding how your pet moves down from stress is just as important as knowing how they go up.2️⃣ Six-Step Observation Process – Learn six steps to better observe and interpret your pet's body language. 3️⃣ Film and Repeat – Every animal is different, and context matters. Filming and revisiting behavior helps you learn about your pet and what's consistent and what changes.Links & Resources from the Episode

US Reportedly In Talks To Ease Iran Sanctions, Assist Non-Enrichment Nuclear Program

Do your staff really understand what enrichment is - or are they just nodding along and fluffing it? Are your handlers bought into your values, or just clocking in for another day in the play zone? And is your team helping you upsell enrichment - or would they rather do without it altogether? In this episode, I'm fresh off a sun-soaked break in Menorca and back in the garden with the chickens (update incoming on that front!!) Inspired by the “onboarding” process we used to integrate our new hens into the flock, I'm talking about the vital role onboarding plays - not just for clients, but for staff, especially in enrichment-focused facilities. If your team isn't trained to deliver and explain enrichment confidently, you'll struggle to sell it.  So that's why Tim and I created the Enrich U Employee Accelerator, a new training programme that helps you build a more invested, enrichment-savvy team from day one. You'll also hear a clip from Tim's recent webinar where he shares how losing his entire team forced him to rethink his staffing strategy, how to create a real career path for daycare workers, and why a burnt-out handler is a walking liability.  In this episode, you'll discover: The Staff Buy-In Problem – Why enrichment fails when your team doesn't understand or believe in it. The Daycare Career Ladder – How to create a staff progression plan that builds loyalty (without needing them to become trainers). Bored Staff, Rowdy Dogs, Exhausted Owners – The cycle you must break if you want a calmer, more profitable facility. Enrichment = Retention – How enrichment not only helps dogs—but also keeps clients and staff coming back. The Enrich U Employee Accelerator – What it is, who it's for, and why it's the staff training you didn't know you were missing. Want access to the new Dog Daycare Employee Accelerator Programme? Join Enrich U now at www.enrichmentuniversity.com and get the full programme included. Need help fixing your business?

In this episode of Enrichment for the Real World, Allie Bender and Emily Strong chat about the use of protected contact including what it is (and no, it isn't just putting up a gate or a fence), how to adjust your plan based on needs and progress, tips to avoid the temptation to rush, and advice to ensure that you're not just relying on barriers to prevent a bite—but setting up everyone for success. Using a detailed case study of a dog named Archie, Allie and Emily share how his family used different types of protected contact to prioritize safety, maintain relationships, and build new skills without putting anyone at risk. ⚠️ Important Note: This episode is here to educate and inform, not to replace personalized behavior support. Every individual animal is different, and there's no one-size-fits-all solution. If your pet is showing signs of aggression, we strongly encourage teaming up with a qualified behavior professional who can give you the custom support your unique animal needs.And pros? If aggression isn't already in your skillset, don't wing it based on this episode alone. Get a mentor, get the right training, and do it the right way—for everyone's safety and well-being.TLDL (Too Long, Didn't Listen): 1️⃣ Barriers Are Tools, Not Guarantees – Don't assume a setup is safe just because there's a barrier. Assess for this individual, in this context, with their current skills.2️⃣ Slow is Smart – Move at the pace of the least comfortable team member (human or animal). Rushing doesn't get you there faster—it just risks trust and safety.3️⃣ Protected Contact Isn't a Free Pass to Flooding – Barriers don't eliminate stress. If the animal is still over threshold, protected contact alone won't prevent problems.Links & Resources from the Episode
