“If we could live happy and healthy lives without harming others…why wouldn’t we?” That is the mantra of this week’s guest, Pam Ahern. She is the founder and director of Edgar’s Mission Farm Sanctuary in Australia, and in this episode, she and Kathy talk about:

• Pam’s journey to establishing a sanctuary out of love for one pig, Edgar Alan Pig
• The plight of farmed animals in Australia compared to those in the United States
• The courageous life of Baarack, a stray sheep who overcame the odds to live his life in peace at the sanctuary
• Be Kind to Animals Week, an annual campaign from Edgar’s Mission emphasizing the importance to show compassion for all beings
