Ruff Around The EdgesAuthor: Kajsa van Overbeek
Sharing stories of force-free dog training journeys with challenging, reactive and aggressive dogs and the impact living with those dogs has on our daily lives and our mental health. I hope that hearing these stories can help to make people feel less alone. We love our dogs to pieces but sometimes it's hard and then it's simply nice to hear from others going through something similar. This podcast is about us trying to teach our dogs, but more importantly, it's about what our dogs are teaching us.Find the show notes at https://kajsavanoverbeek.com/ruff-around-the-edges-podcast/ Language: en-us Genres: Health & Fitness, Kids & Family, Mental Health, Pets & Animals Contact email: Get it Feed URL: Get it iTunes ID: Get it |

Mindset Episode 028 | I Would Never Let My Dog Behave That Way; Verbal Condemnation
Monday, 16 June, 2025
Send us a textA chat at the airfield turns into a round of “I would never…” and sparks this episode on what I call verbal condemnation. From “I’d never rehome my dog” to “My dog would never bite”, these statements often hide fear, not fact. I explore the defense mechanisms behind them, projection, denial, moral high ground, and why they sting so much when directed at us. Awareness isn’t about brushing things off. It’s the first step toward understanding what we’re really afraid of, and deciding what to do with it.Episode website:https://kajsavanoverbeek.com/mindset-episode-028-verbal-condemnation/If the podcast resonates with you and you want to dig a little deeper, coaching is the tool to help you cope better with stressful situations, makes you more confident and daring, and all around feel better.
