Dear Aisha, I think you just need to learn to say No sometimes, without worrying about other’s feelings. Just, “No, I’m sorry I can’t do that” without an explanation. Make a goal of doing that 3 times a week. […]

Dear Tyler: What…? Oh sorry I wasn’t paying attention… Procrastination? You’re probably doing stuff you don’t really want to do. I don’t really ever want to roll over when my humans ask me to do it. I’m […]

Dear Lucy: You could try asking your mom what you could do to earn it. When I want something new and exciting, I work hard and dig it up. Maybe you could dig up her lawn for her? ❤️ – Mishu Any other ide […]

We could communicate better if we were on the same side

Dear Friend,You’re a dog, right? Ask her to take you for a walk so she doesn’t have to stay there and be yelled at. You could also cuddle on her lap to protect her. Be safe! ❤️ – Mishu 

Dear Rose,Maybe you are afraid of your own feelings or trying too hard to be strong. What if you watch an emotional show or movie and see if that triggers your tears? Sometimes we need some distance from our […]

It’s the path, not the #destination
