About the project
How To Have A Zen Dog is a podcast by Gordon Fontaine of Zen Dog Training in Somerville, MA. The show explores the Zen Dog Way, a mindful, compassionate approach to training both people and the dogs they love.
When Gordon reached out in February 2022, he wanted support bringing his vision to life: launching his first podcast, shaping his voice as a host, and producing a show that reflected his calm, expert tone.
My role
I partnered with Gordon to:
- Develop the show concept and launch plan
- Coach him through the hosting process for Season 1
- Produce and edit every episode from start to finish
- Handle distribution and publishing setup on Buzzsprout
As a bonus, I also co-hosted, bringing playful, balanced energy to early episodes while Gordon found his rhythm behind the mic.
