🎧 New episode: Why training plans DON’T work


💥My newest podcast episode just dropped: Training Plans DON’T Work

If you feel like you are doing everything right — following the recipe, sticking to the plan — and it still isn’t working, this episode is for you.

Inside, I talk about:

  • Why training plans fall short
  • Mistakes people make when their plan isn’t working (and it’s not your mechanics, treats, or your dog’s ability!)
  • What actually works: training that adapts to your unique dog and real-life challenges

This one’s a must-listen if you’ve been feeling stuck or frustrated!

Warmly,
Christina
