Episode 7 of Season 6 - The Animal Protagonist

Surprise guest host, Nanette McCann interviews me about the difficulties and successes of discovering animal friendships. 

Guest Host: Nanette McCann joined Homeward Pet as the Executive Director in 2018.  It was Homeward Pet’s reputation for community engagement and volunteer dedication that spoke to Nanette’s personal values over her 30+ year career as a non-profit professional.

It was Nanette’s first career in radio broadcasting that actually got her interested in working in non-profit as a career.  After 10 years as an on-air personality, championing for many organizations and experiencing the passion and commitment of volunteers and non-profit staff, Nanette made the transition to mission based work.

Nanette is the mom of five human children and two fur-babies, Frankie and Ursula.
