I love both dragonflies and hummingbirds... but i had an amazing experience with a dragonfly at the hot springs. I saw something spiraling down into the water... I got in and gently lifted it up from the water. It was a beautiful iridescent dragonfly. It sat and rested on my hand while it dried off. I noticed it was missing tip of one wing. We sat together on the edge of the water while it rested. Then it stretched it's wings... attempted to fly... went only a few feet away and then gently returned to my hand. We sat in quiet conversation for a while longer, no rush, no expectation... Then when it was ready, it managed to fly away. I have incorporated it into my art logo and branding. Dragonfly Bliss Studio. What animal resonates with you or do you feel a "kinship" with?

This space was created for those who feel there is something deeper in the relationship with their animal companion… something beyond training, beyond surface-level solutions. If you’ve ever felt confused, frustrated, or simply sensed that your animal is trying to communicate something more—you’re not alone. My work over the past 30+ years has shown me that true change doesn’t come from control… it comes from understanding, awareness, and connection. Here, we’ll explore that together. You’ll find insights, reflections, and simple ways to begin seeing your animal—and your relationship—in a new light. Inside you'll find: 🐾 Thought-provoking conversations and community discussions 💛 Relationship-centered insights and reflection 🌿 Holistic wellness resources for people and animals 🧩 The Soul-Aligned Partnership framework, Elemental Wisdom, and relationship exploration tools 🎁 Free resources, courses, live conversations, and community support If you've ever felt there was something more to your relationship with your animal There’s nothing you need to “do” right away. Just start noticing. ✨ To begin, I’d love to hear from you: What has been the most confusing or challenging part of your relationship with your animal companion lately? (And if you feel called, let me know what kind of animal you share your life with 🐾 and if you are comfortable, share a photo too please 🐾) — If you didn’t leave your email when joining and would like to receive updates or resources as this space grows, feel free to share it with me or send it privately.
