In this episode, I’m diving deep into the fascinating science of emotional contagion between humans and dogs, and sharing practical ways to keep your energy balanced so you can keep showing up for your dog… even when motivation is low!

This episode is equal parts science, mindset, and real-world strategy, designed to help you feel inspired, grounded, and ready to make this season count for your dog’s training success.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• The neuroscience of how dogs synchronise with our emotions, stress levels, and energy


• Why your mindset and emotional state can make or break your training sessions


• How seasonal shifts in mood and motivation affect your consistency - and what to do about it


• Simple, science-backed strategies to keep your own energy cup full as the nights draw in


• Practical training ideas for indoors and outdoors to maintain progress through autumn and winter


• How small, consistent efforts now build the springtime dog you’ll be proud of later
