Are We Muting Ourselves...And Our Dogs?

The Pantone Color of the Year for 2026 is here… and it’s white. Cloud Dancer. And somehow that one announcement sent me down a full-on rabbit hole about culture, emotion, dog training, and why everything around us feels a little too beige these days.In this episode, I explore what Pantone colors actually reflect about us as humans... why the world keeps muting itself... and how our craving for neutrality shows up in the way we live, train, and let ourselves feel. We talk about neutrality versus peace, the pendulum swing of culture and dog training, and why our dogs may be the last truly vibrant things in a world that keeps trying to quiet everything down.If you’ve ever wondered why bright collars, neon biothane, or even your dog’s personality feel like a breath of fresh air... this one’s for you. It’s about color as emotion, boundaries as compassion, and the center point where clarity and aliveness finally meet.Come hang out with me while I chase this thread... all the way from Cloud Dancer to dog training to what it means to feel fully alive again.https://linktr.ee/cbwing
