Restructuring your business for health is a topic our friend, Melanie Benware came to us as a conversation piece. Naturally we both liked it as it’s something we try to encourage anyone to do who’s in an impossible situation.

Melanie speaks of the necessity of restructuring and how she had to do it for her health. Sometimes when people consider restructuring themselves, they can find that overwhelming.

Episode 94: Our summary abroad is really that. A summary of our time and experience during the Canadian seminar and the IACP conference.

We started with a very long plane flight from Sydney to Montreal, followed by a 2 hour drive the next day to Ottawa. From there we had a little time to settle in before the seminar started.

Over the following days we got to meet and teach some amazing people who were just incredible people. Some of those people even joined us at conference for the IACP.

Following on from there, we left Canada to head back to the USA to meet up with Shawn and Janet Edwards. Every year they hold a trial to honour the memory of Janet’s PSA 3 dog Zuko over a 2 day trail.

Glenn got to learn more judging experience and Pat assisted in decoying. After that we both headed off on another visit of Americas airports to head to the IACP conference.

This years conference was in Colorado Springs with over 500 people attending. It goes without saying that it was an amazing time and we met more great people.

Glenn was asked to join the IACP board of directors and was accepted which was a huge honour.

The entire experience was a blast and the conference ended it well

Interviewing Melanie Benware in this episode was for two reasons. One, to find out a little bit more about her and her business. Two, to discuss her role as President for the IACP.

If you haven’t heard us speak of the IACP before, perhaps you are new to the show? This year we will be the official podcasters for the International Association of Canine Professionals.

As Mentioned above, Melanie has recently assumed the presidential role from our good friend, Tyler Muto.

Being the president in any organisation both comes with its advantages and its disadvantages. The main role of the president is not dissimilar than that of a ships captain. You need a great ship and a great crew to take care of your passengers.

Melanie also shares with us her role of becoming a professional dog trainer which is where all our hearts lie.
