S3 Ep 13The WHY Behind Your Pet’s Health with Kara Hanrahan
What if the food in your pet's bowl — and on your own plate — is the missing piece of their health, and yours? This week, we sit down with Kara Hanrahan of Raw Remedies Holistic Health, a functional medicine nurse practitioner and canine nutritionist whose journey from conventional emergency medicine to holistic health was sparked by the animals in her life. From a cat lost too soon to a dog with chronic pancreatitis who transformed almost overnight on fresh food, Kara shares how real food became the medicine she never learned about in school — for people and their pets. The conversation goes deep on the difference between lifespan and healthspan, the gut-brain-behavior connection, and why your animal's mood, energy, and even their affection toward you may have more to do with what's in their bowl than you'd think. Kara also offers grounded, practical guidance for families ready to explore fresh food — without the overwhelm. Whether you go all-in or just toss some veggie scraps in the kibble, she wants you to know: you're already advocating for the ones you love.
