Does time really heal all wounds? The loss of a pet is a painful life experience. But healing comes in many forms including creativity and advocacy. That's Erica Messer's story. Her personal loss of her beloved cat Wolfgang took her on a journey to become a board-certified pet bereavement specialist and creator of Wolfie's Wish, a company that turned her pain into a purposeful mission. On this episode of HIListically Speaking, Erica opens up about how music, art and words of affirmation have helped thousands on their pet loss healing journey. Plus, why she's making the entire pet industry and workplaces see pet bereavement in an entirely different light.⁣ ⁣ CONNECT WITH ERICA & WOLFIE'S WISH⁣ https://wolfieswish.com/ @wolfies_wish⁣ (Get 10% off Grieving Cards with code: ELIZADOOLITTLE⁣ ⁣ PET BEREAVEMENT LEAVE PETITION⁣ https://www.change.org/p/pet-bereavement-leave-advocacy-petition⁣ ⁣ HILISTICALLY SPEAKING EPISODES MENTIONED: ⁣ Ep 151: Pet Loss: From Grief to Gratitude ⁣ Ep 155 Pet Lover's Stories: Voices of Love ⁣ ⁣ GET BRAIN CANDY DELIVERED TO YOUR INBOX⁣ ⁣ (Scoop on guests, giveaways, events and more)⁣ https://www.hilaryrusso.com/braincandy⁣ ⁣ CONNECT WITH HILARY⁣ https://www.hilaryrusso.com⁣ ⁣https://www.linkedin.com/in/hilaryrusso⁣ https://www.instagram.com/hilaryrusso⁣ https://www.youtube.com/hilaryrusso⁣
