In this beautifully grounding conversation, I’m joined by Miranda Wimbush, founder of The Mindful Canine, to explore what becomes possible when we slow down, soften our nervous systems, and reconnect with the wisdom that lives beneath the noise. Miranda brings together science, intuition, and embodied awareness in a way that feels both practical and profound. We talk about dogs as mirrors, grief as an initiator, and why true change so often begins at the human end of the leash. This is an episode for dog guardians and professionals who feel the pull toward a quieter, more connected way of being with their dogs - and with themselves. 🐾 Key Takeaways The truth behind “fixing the dog” Why behaviour often shifts when the human nervous system finds regulation first. The one basic secret of intuitive connection Slowing down enough to feel - not analyse - what’s happening between you and your dog. Why most well-meaning dog guardians are exhausted And how emotional release can restore capacity, clarity, and compassion. How a simple heart-centred practice can change everything From daily stress… to how safe and supported your dog feels with you. The often-overlooked cost of caring deeply Especially for pet professionals, and why boundaries and self-connection matter more than technique. 💬 Favourite Quote “When we release some of what we’re carrying, our dogs don’t just feel it, they soften with us.” 00:00 Introduction to the Podcast 00:24 Welcoming Miranda Rubush 00:54 Miranda's Background and Business 02:33 The Shift to Focusing on Dog Owners 04:26 Personal Journey and Emotional Healing 05:45 Intuitive Connection and Energy Healing 07:03 Impact of COVID on Dog Owners 08:36 Challenges Faced by Dog… ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/soul-touched-by-dogs-6619614/episodes/miranda-wimbush-dogs-as-mirrors-healing-at-the-human-end-of-the-leash/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/soul-touched-by-dogs-6619614/miranda-wimbush-dogs-as-mirrors-healing-at-the-human-end-of-the-leash.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
