    Giving Animals Voice
    Jun 23 2025
    This week, our guests are Denise Nestel and Christine Noble Seller, Directors of Giving Animals Voice, a ground-breaking organization that is making animal communication a resource widely available to shelters, rescues, and sanctuaries. Their goal is to improve the well-being of animals and facilitate optimal adoptions as well as to develop practices, processes and data to share with other organizations and with those interested in the well-being of animals in care. Denise Nestel founded Giving Animals Voice, a small Michigan non-profit, after she conducted pilot projects to provide animal communication with animals in a local rescue and shelter in 2021. The staff of both affirmed the benefit to the animals AND to their caregiving so the organization was born. Having recently completed Pilot 3, Giving Animals Voice continues to focus on expanding free animal communication sessions to more organizations and making it easier and more impactful to deliver animal communication to animals in care. Christine Noble Seller is an interspecies communicator, sacred activist and advocate, and educator committed to amplifying the voices of animals, wildlife, and Nature—and helping humanity remember we are Nature too. Since 2014, she has raised awareness of Intuitive Interspecies Communication (IIC) and its transformative role in reshaping human relationships with the more-than-human world.
