About this listen

In this episode of My Love of Life Energy, I sit down with Anne Scharlow for a quiet, powerful exploration of what it really means to live a fulfilling life.

We talk about the difference between chasing happiness and allowing fulfillment to emerge — not through effort or achievement, but through trust, patience, and deep listening. Anne shares how her lifelong work with animals has shaped the way she sees life itself: as a living conversation that responds when we slow down enough to hear it.

Together, we explore:

  • Why fulfillment has a deeper, steadier quality than happiness

  • How trust grows when we stop trying to control outcomes

  • What animals reveal about presence, patience, and reverence for life

  • The role of gentleness and listening in real transformation

  • How fulfillment arises naturally when we align with what’s already here

This conversation is an invitation to soften, to listen more deeply, and to reconsider what truly nourishes us — beyond fleeting moments of happiness.
