Channeller I explore life from a place where living with another is about a relationship, a co-existence, a partnership. I explore life with a dog as a teaching, a lesson and experience of what it is like to live with another animal. My work, teachings, knowledge, experience and qualifications teach you how to live your best life with your dog. This is not from a place of expecting your dog to do what you want them to do or have been told how your dog should behave. This is from a place of understanding your dog, understanding yourself and how best to support your dog in all aspects. It's about how you nourish yourself in the same way. I have created this FREE e-book so you can explore seven ways to connect with your dog and understand what they are feeling. When you feel like you don't know what to do. When you feel like you have failed your dog or that your dog is not doing what you except go them, here you get to break free from the judgment, blame and frustration you place on your dog and yourself and explore what it truly means to co-exist with your dog and how to live your best life with them,

Download my FREE e-book and join my mailing list to receive news, information and programmes about my teachings and shares so that you are not only living from your true vibration, but your dog is too. https://islafishburn.clickfunnels.com/optin1613058886970?fbclid=IwAR3y-FKrcZvF7KwOuWb_kBCJBRvjSWWLdY_AC2PHOKORBk7R6iURYKWu2zg

Our animal friends are in our life to awaken and open our hearts once again, in life and in their transition. It is why we feel that heart pull when with them and why we feel the full hit of our heart being blown open when they transition.

Our animal friends ask us to enter this medicine path of heart open, heart awake. Our animal friends live from the heart and, in doing so, have not left this place of sacred. We also used to live from the heart and can do so again.

By blowing our hearts open, their transition is an invitation and opportunity for us to enter sacred and remain in this state through a continued open heart, shifting our consciousness in to a heightened state of connection with source consciousness; shifting our co-existence with them to this heightened state.

Their transition is their way of asking us to continue walking with our heart open and with sacred.

When we do and know how to, we move beyond the thinking mind and in to sacred through the heart - the subtle fields that hold your deeper knowing, wisdom and intelligence where your animal friend lives from.

Their transition becomes a bridge - between worlds, between physical and non physical, between space and time, between the human and the more than human and in to source consciousness and sacred.

Your animal friend has not left what is sacred. Their transition is not their end, but a powerful sacred call for you to start your journey in to soul and what is sacred by blowing your heart open.

All that is needed is for your heart to stay open and awake. If it closes, your connection to sacred will be lost again. If it does, your animal friend will be there to open it again with you, until it eventually stays open and where you and they will walk in sacred together.

05/01/2026

We are all grieving in some way and not in the way we might think. Grief does not just come from the transition of a loved one, like our animal friend, but their transition is a way to open us up to the medicine that is sacred grief.

We are all hurting in some way from the many griefs we carry and our animal friends want us to stop hurting. They invite us to step on the medicine path of grief and enter ceremony with our soul work.

A great way they do this is from their own sacred transition that pulls us in to grief. This is not just grief from their transition but how their transition blows our heart open to feel all grief as an invitation to enter sacred, know what is real and open our heart to heal.

We are grief and death illiterate and afraid of it, but our animal friends are not - they hold the wisdom still of grief and transition being sacred and being soul. Their transition is not the end of them being alive, but it can be the start of you entering your soul work that they ask you to begin, lovingly offered and activated from their transition.

It is a window of opportunity opened by your animal friend to enter what is sacred, enter ceremony for your soul work and what they offer you from their transition - they do this for you. To them, their transition is perfect for what it asks of you.

There is so much more to their transition than them just leaving the body and whilst that requires a sacred honouring, their transition is also a message of love from them to you to stop hurting. The very irony is that the hurt we feel when they transition is the message from them for us to stop hurting and start healing by entering soul work and ceremony guided by them, which they do when in their body or out of it.

When they transition, a powerful portal of healing is opened for you as their transition fully blows open the heart. But, this is often overlooked and the heart quickly closes again, becoming hardened and thickened from yet another grief that is felt and carried rather than healed.

Our animal friend’s transition opens up the heart to all of our sorrows. At the heart of all our sorrows is a deep emptiness and loneliness that is felt in our body. It is a feeling of lack, that there is something missing and where we feel empty. We say this emptiness is from the transition of our animal friend but it is their transition that makes us feel this emptiness and thus our invitation to enter sacred and soul. It is the emptiness of separation from self, from soul, from sacred and from holy ground. It is the emptiness of loss of identity in who we truly are within cosmological ground.

The opposite of emptiness is not fullness - it is presence, it is feeling, it is embodiment, it is connection, it is intimacy, it is ceremony. It is a return to the heart opening fully.

This is the medicine your animal friend offers and wants for you from their transition. It is an opportunity to step on to the medicine path of your sacred grief. It is in our sacred grief that we begin to sense how to address and be with this emptiness and find our way back to our true self, to nature, to what is real, to what matters, to sacred and to the infinite consciousness that is our animal friend.

Your animal friend is infinite in this way. Their transition is of no importance to them, although they see it as sacred and do welcome and ask that we make their transition sacred. What is of importance to them is that, through their transition, we see it as a sacred act, a call from them to us inviting us to step on to the medicine path of what is sacred and enter our soul work to heal the collection of all our sorrows.

Their transition is not their end, but a strong sacred attempt and intent for you to start your journey in to soul and what is sacred.

Our animal friends are in our life to open and awaken our hearts once again, in life and in their transition. They ask us to enter this medicine path. It’s their way of asking us to continue walking with our heart open.

04/01/2026

A common theme I witness when teaching about the sacred transition of our animal friend and our sacred grief is the guilt an animal guardian feels.

Or, how guilt is so often hidden behind the grief a guardian can feel.

Many animal guardians that I work with whose animal friend has transitioned tell me time and time again that they feel guilty about their animal's transition.

About not making enough time for their animal friend.

About not honouring their animal friend's transition.

About not doing enough for their animal friend.

About leaving their transition too late or arranging it too early.

About their animal friend suffering or not wanting what was done.

About not wanting their animal friend to be upset, angry or disappointed in them.

And whilst all these things can feel painful, none of them are true.

But, it is what your animal friend so cleverly brings up and forward in you from their transition.

Their transition is sacred and so is your grief. Their transition is an invitation, a catalyst, to your soul work and soul work is sacred.

Through the sacred act of their transition, your animal friend is acting as a catalyst to your sacred soul work.

It is not the guilt you feel about your animal friend's transition but because of their transition, you feel guilt.

You. Feel. Guilt.

Let that sink in.

Your animal friend is source consciousness, led purely from the divine frequency of love light without any limitations.

Your animal friend feeds unlimited love frequency to you - you feed unlimited love frequency to them. When and where we do not is soul work in itself.

Yet, we so very often do not feed unlimited love frequency to ourselves.

And this is the catalyst our animal friends come to stir, bring up and ask for us to look at through our soul work - to love ourselves without limits.

In any and every way where we feel guilt, shame, blame, discomfort, hurt, sorrow, grief or anything else through our animal friend, know this is what they have come as a catalyst for us to alchemise.

It is the same with guilt and guilt is soul work.

Where we may feel guilty about how or when our animal friend transitioned, it is an offering from our animal friend to be with this guilt.

To look at it.

To feel it.

To comfort it.

To love it.

To alchemise it for what it really is.

It is not the guilt you feel from your animal friend's transition, although you may tell yourself that it is and fully believe it, but it is from your animal friend's transition that they are cleverly opening up a wound that they wish you to heal from. In this case guilt. They know we are hurting and they want us to stop hurting, to stop punishing ourselves.

Of all the times you were made to feel guilty.

Of the first time you were made to feel guilty.

Of every time you were shamed, blamed or made to feel you did something wrong.

Your animal friend does not live from these distorted places. They live as pure expressions of source consciousness, of love unlimited, and invite you to come back to living from this place of divine love. They do not know any other way to be.

To do so requires soul work and our animal friends know exactly the soul work they are to catalyse for us so that we can heal our hurts and exist as source consciousness with them.

One of the biggest ways our animal friends are catalysts for our soul work is through their transition.

So, if you do feel guilty about it, take a moment to realise and thank them for what they want and bring for you - to be the catalyst that brings forward all the times you were made to feel shame and guilt, so that you may enter your soul work and alchemise it.

Your animal friend is not hurting - we are. They are showing in all the ways they can and know how to, all the hurts we carry and how we can heal from these through the soul work they are catalysts for so that we can eventually return back to pure love divine as source consciousness.

Their transition is one of the most special, deep, holy and sacred catalysts that can lead us in to our soul work and it is what I am here to guide you through with your animal friend.

Tonight is the first full moon of 2026.

She is the Wolf Moon.

She asks us to lean in and listen inward to remind ourselves that community is sacred; to remind us of sacred and this sacred life.

This Wolf Moon calls us back to ourselves and the parts that we learned to keep quiet and to now voice them in sacred community. This Wolf Moon is potent for those wanting to tend, lick, share and speak of the grief they walk.

This Wolf Moon and what she offers is perfect for me to share that something sacred is coming for sacred animal guardians - the village!

For those whose animal friend's have transitioned.
For those who are in their grief journey.
For those navigating the space of their animal friend transitioning.
For those who wish to speak, be heard, valued and welcomed in talking about this.

A space where we give attention to transition and grief.
A space where we give ceremony, ritual and connection.
A space where we heal, cry, receive and share.
A space where your name, pain and presence is valued and welcomed.

It’s time for you to hear your name be called to come and join the village.

You gave so much to your animal friend.
You are still connected with them.
But you don’t know how to reach out to them or who to reach out to.

You don't know where to go to feel supported in ceremony, connection, soul work, ritual, healing and more with your animal friend’s transition.

Without overwhelm. Without doing it all alone.

The village is welcoming you and calling your name…

This is not a course.
This is not a membership.
This is a growing village of support, healing, soul work, sharing, ceremony, community and sacred connection where we can feel safe in sharing and being with our animal friend's transition.

If your heart feels the pull to join this community and village, drop a ❤ in the comments and I’ll reach out privately with details about how to join the village!

This could be the very thing your heart, your grief and your longing for connection with sacred has been asking for.

22/12/2025

Our animal friends are source consciousness, or expressions of it - as are we. Yet, they have not been pulled off this terrain of communion with sacred and more than human - it is still familiar and usual to them - in fact, how we exist, operate and live life from is very alien and peculiar to them.

Our animal friends arrive to us as divine sources of light, of higher awareness that hold no conditions, consciously or unconsciously, as well as no attachments, identities or belief systems. They come as pure love without limits and without how things should be or want them to be.

Our animal friends in every way are emitting this love without limits to us - not only so that we feel and know of this level of love, but that we can give it to ourselves to enter our soul work for all the times we have been oppressed, controlled, persecuted, hurt, shamed and blamed. Our animal friends are leading us to our soul work, our movement to reunite with source consciousness and how our animal friends so cleverly are inviting us to do so by emitting to us what we carry in ourselves and project on to them.

This also includes how the transition of your animal friend is an extension of them offering you to enter your soul work. It is the transition of your animal friend and your grief that I also know I am here to teach in a medicine way.

Over this year I have observed an even bigger rise and almost panicked urgency in "how to get your animal to live longer" and, whilst we should always be striving to learn and better our understanding of longevity, I also see how this not only creates more panic and blame in an animal guardian but moves our attention even further away from the inevitable, which is our animal friend's transition.

Even though we may think we are in charge and control of our animal friend's life, we have no say when it is their time to transition and equally in saving their life. There is something much deeper going on.

I am also aware that so many animal guardians, who for many are already leading stressful lives and not feeling good enough about themselves, are adding extra torment and stress to themselves because of this sense of conditioned urgency, need, panic and focus to get their animal friend to live as long as possible. This is not the focus here. Besides, what is the real panic and need to make your dog live as long as possible? After all, to them they are living from a place of continued soul span that is infinite.

As we move our already negligent and minor attention further away from transition by putting all our focus on getting our animal friend to live as long as possible, we are then even more shell shocked and move further away from our soul work when their transition comes and we have no idea of how to be with it.

But, there is another way. A way to walk in gratitude and grace with the life of your animal friend and also their transition. This is the medicine way.

As I go deeper in to sacred, ceremony, soul consciousness, soul work and conversing with the unseen and as I connect more and more with the soul consciousness or spirit consciousness of an animal, I realise this is my life's path and dedication to you - an animal guardian.

As I deepen my own connection and ability to channel the consciousness of animals and other beings of source consciousness, converse with spirit and continue doing my own soul work I realise this is my soul calling for animal guardians - to lead you on to the medicine path with your animal friend.

The life of you and your animal friend is sacred. Through it, they are showing you in every way to love yourself without limits, explore your soul work and exist with them from source consciousness. Here you can truly understand and receive their wisdom and how very different life is for them by living from soul.

When their transition comes it is to be honoured, as is your grief, in a medicine way. Both are sacred.

This is why as I focus my teachings more on the medicine path of soul work with your animal friend, I will also be sharing more about the medicine path of sacred transition and sacred grief of your animal friend through ceremony.

This is a dance I am on, a weave, a spin that is my life long commitment as I go deeper in to this work and way of existing so that I can support you and your animal friend in living from soul consciousness with them in their life and transition.

For now, I'm nestling down for a well earned rest and space away from all electrical equipment and technology! I'll be playing in the darkness with the unseen, conversing with spirit, connecting with soul consciousness and deepening my own return to source consciousness.

I wish you all a magical space of knowing the light you are, allowing this light to return to you and seeing your animal friends as the already fully illuminated light beings they are and how they are asking you to shine brightly with them.

The truth is, you never were or did anything wrong in the first place and neither are your animal friends. Neither of you do not need to be any different to have love and feel worth.

In love, light and medicine blessings to you and your animal friend on this medicine path we are on with them and because of them.

21/12/2025

Remember on this winter solstice and the returning of the light that your animal friend is a light being, a fully illuminated soul of source consciousness divine that is reminding you to return fully to your light - your source of consciousness divine.

Our animal friends walk with us as way showers and light bearers emitting to us the oppressive, persecuted, controlling griefs we carry and how we are to give light to these.

Our animal friends exist in the realms of source consciousness, which is a different state of existence and experience than the human realm. All that shows up for us through them is their message of light beaming in to our soul to illuminate us back to existing and experiencing from source, from more than human and more than physical.

This is the message they have for us is every way.

See their light.

Feel your light.

Know that you are both light.

As we turn to welcome the return of the light outside of us, turn within and welcome the light inside of you - fully.

See your animal friend as a fully illuminated being of source consciousness and, through them, see yourself as a fully illuminated being of source consciousness.

This is where to begin with co-existing with our animal friends and the soul work they are shining light on for us to see.

Join me online this Saturday 20th December for my last online journeying circle of 2025!

Come and explore the sacred and unseen world you live with and allllll that they hold for you to support you in this life's journey.

Our animal friends share that we need to believe in fairytales because we are one and this is the medicine place and path they are bringing us back on...but it also takes your commitment!

There are many ways to explore your soul work, some deep and intense spaces, and some more shallow and short but still a space to receive powerfully and get a sense of how, who and what sacred and unseen is, how and what it reveals to you.

My online journeying circle is one of those more shallow and short spaces for you to experience soul connection and entering sacred with the more than human world.

You don't have to know anything about journeying or have done it before to attend!

It is for you:

💚 If you simply want to try something new as a way to relax and rest your nervous system, your mind, your body and cellular health.

🧡 If you want to explore how shamanic drumming and journeying can support a physical challenge your body may be carrying.

🩷 If you wish to be in community and be in circle with others.

🌟 If you are wanting to deepen your connection and contact with soul, unseen and sacred.

Ultimately, journeying circle is a space to meet, explore, be with and connect to the unseen, more than physical and invisible realm we are a part of to receive guidance, advice, support, care, information, blessings, healings and more from our allies here.

If you want to explore and experience what journeying is, how you receive and how it is for you, then we look forward to welcoming you in to the circle.

If you’d like to attend you can book your space in the circle here:

Would you like to experience being in a sacred space and ceremony with your animal friend's transition at home?

Our animal friend is sacred and so is their transition.

One of the ways that I work with an animal guardian and their animal friend when it comes to transition and grief is through creating a scared ceremonial space before, during and after an animal friend has transitioned.

This is usually offered when the animal is in their home when transitioning, but they do not have to be. It also is usually when the vet is offering an at home service for end of life, but it does not have to be.

Before I come to your home, I will sit with the soul consciousness of your animal friend to explore a sacred transition ceremony and what they would like to welcome for this by way of the ceremony, their honouring, information for you and anything for them. I will then come to your home and create sacred space before entering a ceremony with you and your animal friend. We will be in this space until the vet arrives, I will hold space whilst the vet is there and we will continue once the vet has left.

To support you and your animal friend in their transition can be powerfully felt, softened and eased through ceremony and it is so often the very thing that is needed but not included.

I had the absolute honour and pleasure in being with Effie and her guardian on the day Effie was to transition and the beauty of holding that was felt, created and made to support Effie and her guardian in ceremony and sacred.

It was even more special for me that I had known Effie since a young dog and supported her and her guardian in the early days of their relationship.

In a space that is one of the most hardest experiences an animal guardian has to face, I am honoured, blessed and excited to hold this space with you and for you and your animal friend to feel and be in ceremony for their transition.

If this speaks to you and you would like to know more, please reach out and I will look forward to sharing more with you.

Today I am teaching session 2 of Creating Ceremony & Sacred Space for Your Animal Friend’s Transition.

Your animal friend is sacred.

Their transition is sacred.

Your grief is sacred.

Their transition is a medicine path leading you to sacred, through their transition and your sacred grief - not just from their transition but from all the griefs your heart has experienced in ways you know and do not know.

Through their sacred transition your animal friend is opening your heart and is asking you to keep it open to enter your soul work and make contact with soul, with sacred.

This requires ceremony.

Your animal friend’s transition requires ceremony.

Their transition is to be honoured as sacred and be held in ceremony. To do so creates a shift in reality, what you know is real and to feel the medicine that a ceremony brings to you as you honour your animal friend.

Their transition is a medicine path for you that can only be felt and realised when you are with your animal friend’s transition in a medicine way. In a way that is sacred and ceremony.

It is the ceremony that carries you on to and along this medicine path.

It is the ceremony that allows you to meet sacred.

It is the ceremony that honours your animal friend, where you can make contact with soul, with spirit and with source consciousness of all that your animal friend is and your continuation with them in this way.

It is never an end but to feel this we must enter the medicine path that our animal friend is asking us to venture on to when their transition comes or has come.

All of this and more is what my Creating Ceremony & Sacred Space for Your Animal Friend’s Transition offers you.

13/12/2025

Your animal friend does not fear their transition or need their life to be saved.

They continue to view themselves as alive when out of body and indeed welcome their transition when it has come.

What they wish for their transition to teach us is not only to not fear it, but see it in the beauty they see it and how, through it, they are leading us deeply in to our own soul work, fears and contact with sacred to bring us back in to source consciousness, both like them and with them.

Our animal friends are sacred and so is their transition. They ask for their transition to be held in a sacred way and for us to go on a journey with this to make contact with sacred, contact with our own soul and enter this sacred path their transition and our grief takes us on.

What would you ask or wish to know about your animal friend’s transition to beinf you in to ceremony, sacred and soul consciousness?
