    Saving Detroit’s Forgotten Dogs with Executive Director Kristina Millman-Rinaldi, The whirlwind story of the city’s first no-kill shelter, t
    Feb 16 2026
    Today on the Water Your Garden podcast we’re joined by Kristina Millman-RINALDI, the executive director of Detroit Dog Rescue, the first no-kill shelter in the city of Detroit.
    While many know of Detroit Dog Rescue, few know of its origin story that dates back to 2010, involving the city’s rap scene, Discovery Channel, and a dark history of animal neglect.
    However, it’s thanks to the work of people like Kristina that animal welfare has gotten extremely better. Kristina’s and her teammates go out into the city and seek out these dogs that are left chained-up to freeze to death, starve to death, they truly are heroes in our community.
    Today on the show Kristina is shedding light on what animal welfare really looks like today, the work that’s being done to save these animals, and how all of us can help.

  • Rethinking Birth: Midwifery, Safety, and Trusting your Body with midwife Beth Barbeau

    Rethinking Birth: Midwifery, Safety, and Trusting your Body with midwife Beth Barbeau
    Jan 26 2026
    Birth doesn’t have to be something you fear.
    In this episode of Water Your Garden, sit down with Beth Barbeau—mom, midwife, author, and founder of Indigo Forest: Healthy Births, Healthy Lives—for an honest, grounded conversation about pregnancy, birth, and what truly supports parents before, during, and after labor.
    Beth shares her journey into midwifery, what “natural birth” really means (and what it doesn’t), and the biggest myths and fears she sees around midwife-led and holistic birth. We talk about the role of medical interventions, how to balance natural birth with safety, and why prenatal education and mental health support are just as important as the birth itself.
    Whether you’re pregnant, planning for the future, supporting someone through birth, or simply curious about alternative models of care, this episode offers clarity, reassurance, and a powerful reframing of what birth can look like.

    How this professor says incorporating meditation saved her students, how to meditate, and the benefits
    Nov 17 2025
    Today on Water Your Garden, we’re exploring the power of stillness and self-awareness with Molly Beauregard.
    Molly has spent more than two decades teaching sociology at the College for Creative Studies in Detroit, but what makes her story remarkable is the way she brought meditation into her classroom. Back in 2011, she integrated meditation into her classroom teaching — and the results have transformed her students’ lives.
    She’s the author of Tuning the Student Mind, and she’s on a mission to show how meditation can change not just the way we learn, but the way we live. Today, we’ll dive into her journey, what meditation really is, how to practice it, and the benefits it brings.

    How Detroit's Colin McConnell built a life & content career surrounding kindness
    Oct 27 2025
    Today on Water Your Garden, we’re sitting down with someone who has built an entire online community around one simple but powerful thing, kindness.
    Colin McConnell, known to many as @colindetroit and @colin313, has captured millions of hearts by turning everyday acts of generosity into moments that ripple far beyond the people directly involved. From helping his Detroit neighbor Donald and his kids when they needed it most, to biking hundreds of miles to raise awareness for causes close to his heart, Colin has made kindness contagious.
    In a world where so much of our feeds are filled with division and negativity, Colin’s story is a reminder of what’s possible when we lead with empathy.
