Living On Purpose (With a Corgi): Belief, Biology, and Behavior with Jim Bishop
Episode 177
Thursday, 5 March, 2026
In this episode of Why Do Pets Matter, I sit down with leadership coach and Conjunction Leadership founder, Jim Bishop, for a conversation that goes straight to the heart of why we feel stuck, burned out, or stretched too thin. Jim shares how growing up on a farm and now walking with his corgi still helps him feel grounded and unconditionally loved, and how animals have always been his anchor when life feels overwhelming. We explore his powerful framework of beliefs, biology, and behavior, how the stories we tell ourselves shape our nervous system and, ultimately, how we show up as leaders, veterinarians, clients, and humans. Together, we talk about living on purpose for a purpose, why white-knuckling your way through isn’t the same as thriving, and how pets quietly remind us of who we are beneath all the hustle. If you’ve ever wondered, “Is this really how I want to live?” this conversation is for you.
