Janneane Madill, The Alice Sanctuary

On this episode of One Step Beyond, we are joined by Janneane Madill, Founder and Guardian of The Alice Sanctuary. Aram and Janneane discuss the intricacies of leading an animal sanctuary and a charitable organization. This conversation explores what it means to become attuned to your core values, lead with integrity, and stay the course even when faced with legal battles.
Janneane shares her story of founding The Alice Sanctuary 12 years ago after asking herself the big question: why am I here? Trained as a social worker, she had been working in and creating safe spaces for humans. When she defined her purpose, she realized her calling was to do this for animals. Jeannane explains how love, kindness, compassion, and safety are foundational needs for humans and animals alike.
In this conversation, Aram and Janneane chat about facing legal opposition as a farm sanctuary within a farming community requiring a nuanced and strategic approach to communication. Aligning with the sanctuary's core values, it's essential to convey messages that resonate deeply and bring the most value to both supporters and skeptics. This involves being ultimately committed to the cause, holding onto the belief that anything is possible despite the challenges. Leading with integrity is paramount, demonstrating steadfastness in the mission and carrying the weight of becoming an inspiration to others. This leadership not only fosters trust but also serves as a beacon of hope and resilience for those who look up to the sanctuary's efforts in creating a compassionate and sustainable environment.
