Homecoming
A bespoke relationship deepening, group coaching program for women who identify as dog mothers, guardians and caregivers and are seeking deeper connections and attunement with their dogs.
Step into a 5 months’ journey of high touch support to become soulfully in sync with your dog and experience relational abundance and clarity, without having to navigate toxic BS on how to be with dogs.
You are a deeply feeling, soulful, intuitive companion to your dog.
You have moved beyond addressing your dog’s “problem behaviours”. You feel at peace with where they are and how far you have come along. And now you want to go deeper.
You see that your relationship with your dog is special - there’s something about your connection that cannot be described in words, it’s something you and they feel. And you want to nourish and nurture it.
You desire to live with confidence, feeling empowered and in sync with your dog. Ethics matter to you - you feel a true moral responsibility towards your dog. You recognise your dog as a being outside of you worthy of care, and the “right” care.
In every moment spent with them, you are called into a deeper connection - to hold their vulnerability and aliveness. Their existence makes a silent bid to you every day - "Recognise me. I am here.”
You are realising that they are not a possession or even an extension of you - they’re a whole being with their own interiority. And they ask not to be molded or changed - but to be witnessed with love, care and safety.
You are at the cusp of shifting your relationship with your dog to something sacred, potent and transformative.
But you are struggling with conviction. You feel like an oddity, a black sheep, for feeling so much. “Does this make sense?”, you find yourself wondering. Especially when the world is telling you to control and tighten the reins more. On and off, you question the depth of what you experience in your relationship with your dog. You are being asked to think logically and not be so “emotional”. And that makes you yo-yo in your relationship with your dog.
​
You know there’s something deeper, something soulful that you share with your dog. But you feel…unsure. And you are seeking safety in exploring it all. You are seeking to be held as you learn more about attuning to your dog. And you want to be witnessed and held by sisters who share the same journey as you.
You are done with taking advice and perspectives that don’t honour your soul-connection with your dog and help you lean into the spiritual guidance they have to offer to you.
You’re ready to leave behind the confusion and doubt and root yourself into clarity, confidence and conviction.
You are longing for a space that can see this desire of yours for what it is - an honest, authentic bid to experience a sacred connection with your dog.
You are ready to return to the heart.
The truth is…your spirit already knows how to initiate this deep sense of oneness and attunement with your dog.
All you need to do is remember it and reclaim it by:
Coming back into alignment with who your dog is and why you chose them as your companion in this life and honouring their and your truths with knowledge and knowingness
Guiding your dog in returning to safety and in doing that, for your own self because only in safety can soulful connections evolve…and learning (and unlearning and even relearning) how to integrate safety into a way of life shared by the two of you
Breathing back into your spirit and heart-led ways that are rooted in softness, empathy and gentleness, gifts that you’ve been asked to disconnect from to survive and perform within toxic, hyper masculine structures…and finding joy, pride and empowerment in honouring and living those ways
Are you ready to fold yourself back into belonging?

-
A series of one size fits all solutions for your dog and you
-
An approach to living with your dog that requires you to do disconnected things
-
Unethical, non-evidence based conversations

Hi! I'm Surabhi...
Like many of my clients, I was a first time dog parent to my dogs, Luchi & Mutton. It wasn't till we adopted Mutton that I felt like I was in over my head. I didn't feel like I had what it took to support her through her challenges. Over the next few months, I immersed myself in learning, equipping myself with the knowledge and mindset needed to support my dogs.
While I was able to effectively address their problem behaviours, something else happened along the way - I found myself reconnecting with a long forgotten gift - the gift of safety in connections and the power of fearlessly caring. And through my own healing journey and my dogs, I consciously and intentionally set out to revive that lost gift in my relationship with them and with those around me.
Inside Homecoming, I serve as your personal coach guiding and supporting you as take on this transformative work with your dog, drawing upon my 8+ years of experience in coaching women across the globe and as a changemaker rooted in education equity and as a Level 4 ethical canine behaviour consultant and applied ethologist.
Here's what we will be doing:
Helping you attune to your dog’s needs and learn how to respond to them in ways that bring you closer and deepen your connection with them
Tapping into your own resourcing to show up for your dog and yourself in ways that feel consistent and authentic to your heart and spirit
Gently guiding you into exploring your relationship with care and control through group and 1:1 coaching sparks
Imagine...
Feeling so deeply attuned to your dog that you are moving through cycles of life together with understanding and synchronicity
Experiencing true partnership with your dog where equality, agency and emotional interiority are witnessed, honoured and celebrated
Reimagining relationships with yourself and others around you because you leaned into the guidance offered by and through your dog
Silently (or loudly) but powerfully rebelling against oppressive, controlling and harmful systems and claiming your softness as power
What's included in Homecoming:
10 group coaching calls with Surabhi
Think of each call as a spark that guides you to get to know your dog (and yourself in relation to them) better and deeper.

Total value: $120/month

Frequently Asked Questions
When do the calls take place?
The calls take place first and third Saturdays of the month between 6-8 PM IST. Replays will be uploaded to the course portal after every call.
How is group coaching different from 1:1 coaching?
Group coaching allows for collective learning while 1:1 attention too. Hearing others' stories, challenges and breakthroughs can often spark insights that might not surface in a 1:1 session. Group coaching spaces can create a sense of "I'm not alone in this journey" which can be extremely powerful as we navigate through some of the themes that came up in this journey. What's great about group spaces like these is that you not only hear my perspective, but you also get to hear from so many others who are in similar boats as yourself.
I'm concerned that group coaching may not be as effective as 1:1 coaching. Will I get any 1:1 support?
That's a totally valid concern. But let me assure you that group coaching spaces can be extremely effective. Group coaching is a great option for you are a dog mom who is looking for: - refreshers and wants to stay in the learning journey - simply evolve their understanding of their dog - a more nuanced understanding of how they can offer a higher quality of life to their dogs - engagement in communal learning and to be a part of a sisterhood You also get access to 1:1 support through this journey. Each dog mom sister gets access to 2 1:1 coaching slots to explore any theme that's coming up for them. Along with this, each group coaching space offers time and space for1:1 coaching as well.
I have very specific concerns relating to my dog's behaviours.Will I get answers to those in this space?
A great question! To be honest, it completely depends. If you are openly and without agenda curious about your dog's behaviours, you could get answers in this space. If, let's say, you have a dog who's recently bitten someone and are looking to understand what's going on, a 1:1 coaching session could be more relevant for you.
Do you offer refunds?
This program is not refundable, given the high value resources you get access to as soon as you join the space. That being said, while it is perfectly normal to feel some nervousness around making an investment, it is also important that the thought of initiating this journey brings up excitement and hope for you too. Let your investment into this relationship-changing work be from a place of trusting yourself, your vision and your desire to be soulfully connected to your dog.
