Episode Synopsis


Do you ever walk outside and realize you’ve completely missed the moment? You didn’t notice the birds. You didn’t feel the breeze. You didn’t even breathe deeply. If that feels familiar, you’re not alone — and today’s episode might just shift something big for you.
In this soul-level solo episode, Ashley Cipolletti explores how emotional disconnection is keeping us from noticing beauty, building connection with our dogs, and truly enjoying the present. She shares her journey from a suburban Massachusetts upbringing to tracking wildlife in Africa, slowing down in Brazil, and learning deep reverence in Hawaii — and how these experiences shaped her approach to life, self-awareness, and dog training.
Whether you’re a dog parent, nature lover, or simply someone craving more depth, presence, and peace… this episode is for you.
