Hermes & Apollo: A Dog’s Guide to Living a Better Life

Hermes & Apollo: A Dog’s Guide to Living a Better Life

In a lighthearted twist, this week’s episode of Better Business, Better Life sees host Debra Chantry-Taylor joined by two very special guests, her dogs, Hermes and Apollo. Together, they explore the simple but powerful wisdom we can learn from our furry friends. 


From Hermes’ worries about separation to Apollo’s critique of human judgement, the pups deliver big messages in adorable ways. Through their lens, Debra reflects on timeless truths: the power of living in the moment, showing unconditional love, and letting go of stress. 


The episode is filled with warmth, laughter, and gentle reminders to embrace gratitude, make time for play, and prioritise what really matters, like bottoms, bones, cuddles, and smoochies. 


Whether you're a dog lover or just in need of a reset, this episode will lift your spirits and nudge you towards a more joyful way of being.
