Summary

Philip Tedeschi is a clinical professor and Founder of the Institute for Human-Animal Connection, where he studies and teaches about the intricate relationship between people, domestic and wild animals, and the natural world. Philip's focus on bio-affiliation - our connection to the living world - has led him to be globally recognized for expertise in the clinical methods of animal-assisted interventions, as well as human-animal interaction and conflict. 

Philip shares how his path originally started in the veterinary field with a passion for animals and humans' non-verbal relationship with animals. He also talks about an important takeaway from his book, Transforming Trauma: Resilience and Healing Through Our Connection with Animals: the animal's well-being in our immediate environment impacts our own personal neurobiology - it changes our brain chemistry and improves our ability to get well.
