No Bad Cats with Lora Lee Medley

No Bad Cats with Lora Lee Medley

Author: MindBodySpirit.fm August 3, 2026 Duration: 51:16
This week, Lora Lee Medley, founder of Moon Mojo Feline, intuitive animal communicator, and certified holistic cat practitioner, joins the podcast for a conversation that reminds us there are no bad cats, only cats responding to the energy around them. Lora Lee's own journey began with her cat Monty's kidney disease diagnosis, which led her to Reiki, and deepened through her cat Emmett's health struggles into crystal healing, herbalism, cat chakras, and animal communication, eventually training under Sylvie Sterlin to become a certified holistic cat practitioner working with the soul-level purpose, or archetype, each cat carries. The conversation includes her Feline Essentials Herb Gardens she co-created, dried herb blends cats select for themselves through the art of self-selection, and how a cat's chakras, colors, and physical positioning can reveal exactly what they're working to release. Lora Lee walks us through her signature philosophy, No Bad Cats, unpacking how inappropriate urination, fighting between housemates, and sudden shifts in behavior are never about a cat being difficult; they're a cat absorbing and reflecting the unprocessed energy, stress, or emotion of the humans they love. You’ll hear how her own cats Bodie and Zazzles taught her to recognize her own emotional patterns before conflict could even begin, how a client's skittish foster cat found safety through a story of protection and belonging, and how Lora Lee's sixteen cats, thirteen of them black, have deepened not just her practice but her own capacity for connection, respect, and the shadow work none of us particularly want to do but all of us are better for doing. It's a conversation full of heart, humor, and a reminder that our cats aren't just companions; they're teachers, healers, mirrors, and guides, showing us how to live more fully awake if we're willing to pay attention.

Ever wondered what your pet is really thinking, or why a bird outside your window seems to pause just for you? The Animal Communication Podcast offers a rare window into those questions, guided by three experienced practitioners: Julie Hirt, Karen Dendy Smith, and Meredith Tollison. This isn't about training tips, but about connection. Each episode is built on their work as Soul Level Animal Communicators®, where they share candid stories and conversations that bridge our human world with the inner lives of animals. You'll hear them explore everyday mysteries-from puzzling behaviors and health concerns to the pure joy of play-as recounted by the animals themselves, both those sharing our homes and those in spirit. It’s a gentle, often surprising journey that redefines our relationship with all creatures, making it a unique listen for families, pet lovers, and anyone curious about the spiritual bonds we share. Presented by Mind Body Spirit.fm, this podcast invites you to slow down and listen in a whole new way.
