One of my biggest passions

A few months ago, I took on a new role—no, I haven’t stopped coaching or left Temper! I’m still absolutely loving my journeys there. But alongside that, I’ve taken on something that fills my heart in ways I can’t fully describe.

For those who know me well, it won’t come as a surprise that my passion for animals runs deep. I’ve been a vegetarian for over 12 years, making choices that reflect my commitment to the well-being of animals.

I joined an animal shelter in Spain, and the work we do is close to my heart. We don’t uncover limiting beliefs, or have discovery calls, performance reviews, paychecks, or surveys to measure engagement; instead, we find loving homes for incredible dogs who deserve second chances. The shelter collaborates with a Dutch organization, which means I get to work with people from both Spain and the Netherlands—a perfect blend of cultures and a shared mission to make the world a little kinder for these animals.

Joining this shelter and working with people who share the same values has been incredibly fulfilling. True fulfillment comes when the work you do aligns with your values, and these values are what drive me in all aspects of my life. Animals are at the heart of it all—whether I’m working, volunteering, or making decisions about how to spend my time and energy.

I feel incredibly grateful to be part of not one, or two, but three organizations that resonate so deeply with who I am and what I care about. It’s amazing to be able to help these wonderful doggies find a new life, while also being part of a community that shares this commitment.

How about you? Do you feel aligned in your work and life? Do the things you do bring you fulfillment and joy, or is there something more you could tap into that aligns with your values?

P.S. Many of the dogs I’m working with have found their new families in the Netherlands, thanks to the incredible support of Dutch adopters. A huge thank you to everyone who’s helped save these Spanish dogs in need!

P.S.2: If you’re interested in adopting one of my beautiful new friends or contributing with a donation—whether for food, medicine, or other needs—please don’t hesitate to reach out. Every little bit helps make a big difference for these sweet souls. 📩
