Welcome to True Kinship with Animals where we believe we all do better when ALL creatures do better.

Returning to chat with us is Deb Fate-Mental, who you first heard on episode #44. Deb is an animist shamanic practitioner, herbalist and wise woman, blending both Irish and British traditions in her work to help and educate people. She is an avid gardener, nature lover, mother, and keeper of many animals.
In this episode Deb and I address a sensitive topic: that of the impact of the Enlightenment Period, New Age and entitlement practices on true kinship with animals.
