Tell us about Tranquil Transitions, why you started it and how you help your clients. Saying good-bye to our four legged loved ones is truly the hardest part of sharing our lives with them. I founded Tranquil Transitions to offer in-home pet euthanasia, aiming to make this experience as comfortable as possible for pets and their owners. The creation of Tranquil Transitions came about after a very personal experience with our first dog, and the love of our life, Brickely. Over the years I have helped many pets pass both in the clinic setting and in their homes. While I have always known the profound importance of a calm transition I didn’t realize the enormity of the experience until we were faced with the decision for Brickley.
By the time we had reached the end, Brickley was quite painful, anxious, and had mobility issues. When we finally made the decision we were fortunate that my colleague was able to come to our house. The process of getting him into the car and to a place that caused him stress would have been an emotional and physical challenge. In addition, the sense of grief we felt following his passing was staggering, and being in our own environment, with our kids nearby, was a huge comfort. After this experience, a good friend called me asking for assistance with their dog, however, due to license restrictions, I wasn’t able to help. I realized that I wanted to be able to support my friends and our community through this difficult time. Months later, Tranquil Transitions was born.
What is the best piece of business advice you’ve ever received? Do what you love, do it passionately, and happiness and success will follow.
What is your favorite spot in Marblehead, and why? It is tough to pick just one, but I think I would choose Crocker Park, as we spend so many hours there looking out over the harbor while our kids play behind us. It’s a place that reminds me how fortunate we are to live in a town that has such natural beauty, a love for the ocean and a sense of community and celebration.
What is something people would be surprised to learn about you? When I lived in California I used to avoid the cold at all costs and complained about it endlessly. Now I’m obsessed with jumping into the ocean every week for a cold dip. The colder the better.
