About this listen

In this heartfelt episode, I’m joined by the amazing Cat Fribley—bird lover, survivor, and Executive Director of Birdability. Together, we dive into Cat’s journey of healing, her guiding principles, and the core values that show up in everything she does—from chirpchasing to building inclusive communities.

Cat shares her story with such openness, kindness, and grace that it's impossible not to leave this conversation feeling inspired. We explore how birds can support healing, how accessibility can transform lives, and why connection (to ourselves, to nature, and to each other) matters so deeply.

Cat is truly a bright light in the birding world and beyond, and I’m honored to have her on this episode of That Quirky Bird Girl. 💛

Show Cat some love in the comments and don’t forget to share your favorite “non-rare” bird with us!
