*Season 1: Origins | Episode 8 | 34 min*

This is a live, unscripted coaching session. Brian is a friend of mine that I invited to the show after hearing about his desire to return to higher education, and the first time officially experiencing professional coaching.

He discusses his passion for older animals, being dedicated to making animal care a long term goal after the passing of one of his own dogs, comparing his growth to the path of others, and breaking down overwhelming goals into small, yet manageable pieces.
