Dog training for women.
From a woman.
Soft. Clear. Effective.
Without the alpha energy.
You’re not a pack leader.
You’re a Dog Mum.

And that doesn’t make you “too soft”.
It makes you powerful & brilliant
in all the right ways.
That Sinking Feeling When You Call and They Don't Come Back?
Let's End That. Forever.
It’s not your fault. And the solution isn’t to be louder or more dominant.
It’s to build a bond so deep, your voice becomes their favorite sound.
You know the moment. You call their name, your voice getting a little tighter each time. You clap. You whistle. Maybe you even shake a bag of treats, feeling a bit foolish as other people watch. And that little voice in your head starts whispering, "Why won't they just listen to me? What am I doing wrong?"
So you tried what the experts told you. Be more commanding. Be more "alpha."
Still nothing. In fact, trying to be someone you're not didn't just fail to work—it feels awful, and it may have even created more distance between you and your dog.
Here's the truth nobody tells you: Your dog doesn't need a performer. She needs you. Your empathy. Your intuition. That natural softness you have? That's not a weakness. That's the key. That's the thing that actually works.

Let me guess:
You've tried the treats. The "be more exciting than the squirrel" energy. The high-pitched calls that make you feel like a deranged game show host at 7 a.m.
You've watched the YouTube videos, read the books, and scrolled the Facebook groups where every dog is a perfect angel, leaving you to wonder if the universe specifically designed your dog to humble you.
You've stood in the middle of a park, doing that humiliating recall whistle while your dog pretends she's suddenly gone deaf and has never met you in her life.
And after all that, you're left with one crushing thought: "What am I doing wrong?"
The worst part? You started to believe the one in the wrong was you.
-
That you're too soft.
-
Too emotional.
-
Not assertive enough.
-
Not confident enough.
-
Just... not ENOUGH.
And here's the part that should make you want to set something on fire:
The entire dog training industry was designed by men who think "alpha" energy solves everything.
You know the type. The ones who think "dominance" and "discipline" are the answer to everything. Who look at everything that makes you, YOU: your empathy, your intuition, your emotional intelligence, your softness.... and call it a weakness.
They want you to be louder. More commanding. More aggressive. More like them.
You already spend 40+ hours a week performing at work. Smiling in meetings when you want to scream. Code-switching just to be heard.
And now they want you to perform for your dog, too?
BABE. NO. I refuse on your behalf.
Here's the secret nobody is telling you:
That sensitivity everyone calls a weakness? That's your greatest asset.
You know how you can sense when your best friend's "I'm fine" text is anything but? That's not overthinking. That's reading energy. It's the same skill that tells you your dog is about to bolt three seconds before she does.
Your natural inclination toward connection over control? The very thing old-school trainers call "too soft"? That is literally what creates unshakable loyalty. It's what makes your dog want to come back, not because she's scared of consequences, but because being near you feels safe.
The problem was never you. It was the system trying to turn you into something you're not.
Your dog doesn't need some aggressive alpha disaster who probably peaked in high school.
She needs you to show up as yourself. The version who takes everything the world called "too much" and says, "Actually, this is exactly right."
That's the energy that creates unshakeable recall. Not dominance. Not performance. Not faking enthusiasm on a rainy Tuesday before you've had coffee.
(None of us have our lives together. We're all just winging it with varying degrees of success and good lighting.)
And here's the fantasy you're really after:
It's not just about recall. It's about the life you imagined when you first got your dog.
-
The long off-leash walks where you both feel free.
-
Discovering new trails without that low-grade anxiety humming in your chest.
-
That aesthetic cottagecore content you secretly want to post but can't because your dog is currently terrorizing a family of ducks.
It's about being the version of you who's out there living instead of doing the same boring 15-minute loop around your block, where the only witnesses to your humiliation are Karen with her judgmental Yorkie and that guy who never picks up after his Golden Retriever.
(We all know that guy. We all hate that guy.)
It's about building a life so good, it attracts the right people. The partner who sees you with your dog and falls a little bit in love with both of you. The one who gets that your dog isn't just a pet... they're your person.
That's what you're actually building here.
Not just recall. You're building freedom. Confidence. The main character life you've been putting on hold.
It's the version of you who walks into the forest and knows, deep in her bones, that she's the dangerous one.
Not because you learned to be louder or more aggressive.
But because you stopped dimming your power to fit someone else's outdated rules. You embraced who you already are. You weaponized your empathy, your intuition, your softness... all the things they said would make you weak.
And your dog? They felt that shift.
And they came back.
The Real Reason Traditional Training Failed You
You stand in the park, project your voice, and channel that "alpha" energy you were blamed to lack. You try to be more commanding, more dominant.
And your dog still doesn't come when called.
So let's get one thing straight: It was never you. It was always the system.
Traditional dog training was designed by men who believe dominance is the only currency that matters. Their methods demand that you:
-
Ignore your intuition.
-
Override your empathy.
-
Perform a type of confidence you don't actually feel.
In other words, they ask you to become someone you're not.
And when that performance inevitably fails? When your dog still ignores you?
They blame you.
You were:
-
Too soft.
-
Too inconsistent.
-
Not firm enough.
-
Not alpha enough.
Let's call that what it is: Textbook gaslighting.
Here is the secret they don't want you to know:
The empathy they call "too soft"? That is your superpower. The intuition they dismiss as "overthinking"? That is your tactical advantage. The softness they say makes you weak? That is what creates unshakable loyalty, not fear-based compliance.
The solution was never to change who you are. It was to find a method built for who you are.
Here's What We Do Instead
Forget the alpha energy. Forget the fake enthusiasm. Forget performing.
(And definitely forget those boring routines you feel guilty about abandoning. We've all been there. It was too damn boring to keep up.)
So, what actually happens here?
The dirty secret of dog training? One size fits none. Your dog is different. You are different. That generic advice from YouTube wasn't made for the unique way your dog looks at you, or the rhythm you two share.
Think Violet and Tairn. You can't bond with your dragon using someone else's recipe.
You are the main character. Your dog is not a sidekick. They have sass (think teenage Andarna, but floofy). That dynamic is your tactical advantage, and generic strategies ignore it completely.
Instead of handing you a cookie-cutter plan, we build your playbook. It happens in three steps:
-
First, We Uncover Your Strengths. The empathy. The intuition. The way you can feel her energy shift before she moves. We take everything they called "too fragile" and turn it into your toolkit.
-
Next, We Decode Your Dog. You learn to see what truly drives her. What she needs from you in the moment before she bolts. You'll learn to read her language, not just command her.
-
Then, We Build Your Method. Using that awareness, we repurpose your "weaknesses" into advantages. Your empathy becomes anticipation. Your intuition becomes timing. This isn't about copying me. This is about me guiding you to become the expert on your own dog.
I am giving you the trainer's toolkit.
You know how trainers walk into a ring and dogs just listen? It’s not magic. It's a collection of tiny shifts, specific moves, and insider knowledge that nobody talks about in those generic videos. You're about to get all of it.
What does that shift feel like?
-
It feels like recall stops being an exhausting battle and becomes a fluid, intuitive conversation between the two of you.
-
It feels like looking at her and just knowing what she's going to do next, and feeling total confidence in how to respond.
-
It feels like freedom.
That shift? It’s so close you can taste it. And once you feel it, you won’t be able to unsee it. You'll look back at all those moments you thought you were the problem and realize none of it was ever built for you.
But this is.
You know that moment in a book where the main character finally figures out her power? Where she stops second-guessing herself and everything just clicks?
That "YES, FINALLY" feeling where you can't put the book down because you need to see what she does next?
That's what's waiting for you here.
Except instead of a book, it's your relationship with your dog. And instead of just reading about it, you get to live it.
Every single walk. Every recall. Every moment she chooses you over the squirrel.
That little voice in your head right now? The one whispering, "Wait, what if this actually works for me?"
She's not wrong. She's never been wrong.
She's just been waiting for someone to show her how.
That someone? That's me. That something? It's right here.
Okay, here is everything you're getting:
📋 The Recall Audit (Your Foundational Blueprint)
Forget the generic workbooks you download and never open. This is an active diagnostic tool that creates your personalized training roadmap. We have to know where you're starting before we can build the path forward.
By the end of this, you will have total clarity on:
-
The #1 blindspot that's sabotaging your recall.
-
The exact skill to focus on first for the biggest impact.
-
The real reason your dog has been ignoring you (hint: it's not what you think).
This isn't about guessing. This is your blueprint for what works.
🧘♀️ The Calm & Confident Audios (Your Secret Weapon)
Here’s the secret no other dog trainer talks about: Your dog feels your anxiety.
That frantic "please don't embarrass me" energy you feel when you unclip the leash? She feels it, too. You can't teach your dog to be calm if you're internally spiraling.
These 3 short, guided audios are designed to regulate your nervous system first. They are the emotional foundation for every successful recall.
This is the tool that ensures you lead with quiet confidence, not hidden anxiety.
🎧 The 'Off-Leash' Private Podcast (Your Weekly Coaching)
This is where the transformation happens. Every Tuesday, new audio lessons drop directly into your private podcast feed, ready to be played on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen.
Each episode is a mix of what you need to hear, right when you need to hear it:
-
Actionable Training: Clear, step-by-step techniques that build a recall that actually works in the real world.
-
Real-World Breakdowns: We'll dissect that moment your dog ran off at the park and create the exact strategy to prevent it from ever happening again.
-
Mindset & Motivation: The confidence-building coaching you need to trust yourself and your dog off-leash.
This isn't fluff. This is where you get those "OHHH, that's why she does that" moments that make everything finally click into place.
And it's designed for your real life. You can listen while you walk the dog, fold the laundry, or tune out your next Zoom meeting. No need to find extra time in your day because this training fits into the time you already have.
🎁 BONUS: Your Private Coaching Session (Value: $325)
For a limited time, this is included for free. Please do not sleep on this.
When you submit your completed Recall Audit, I will personally review your answers and record a 100% personalized audio coaching plan just for you.
This is the exact same deep-dive analysis I do in my $325 private packages. I'll break down your specific situation, your unique dog, and your real-life chaos, and give you the exact next steps to take. No generic advice. A tailored strategy, delivered directly to you.
And here's why this benefits everyone:
Your personalized audio is dropped anonymously into the main podcast feed. You get a private, tailored strategy (worth $325). Everyone else in the program gets a library of real-world coaching sessions to learn from. It’s like getting access to dozens of high-value private sessions, making the entire program more powerful for the whole community.
But Here's The Catch (And I'm Being 100% Transparent):
My goal is to help a million dog mums, but I am only one person. I physically cannot create thousands of custom audios. It isn't a marketing gimmick; it's a logistical reality.
Therefore, this bonus is strictly limited.
I can guarantee it for the first wave of members. Once capacity is hit, this bonus is gone. Permanently.
If you join now and submit your workbook, your $325 private session is locked in. It's yours.
If you wait, you will miss out. No exceptions, no extensions.
This is your one chance to get it.

Just send me an email.
I’ll record a detailed audio answer to your specific question and drop it anonymously into the private podcast feed. You get the exact solution you need, and the entire community gets to learn from a real-world scenario.

This isn't a forum with generic, unhelpful advice. This is direct access.
It’s like having a dog trainer who understands that your life happens between the school run and making dinner, while your dog is actively trying to steal toast off the counter.
ABOUT IULIA
Dog trainer. Human coach. Monster mama.
Hi, I'm Iulia. I'm a certified dog trainer and a member of the Association of Canine Professionals in the UK. For over 8 years, I've specialized in working with reactive and high-drive dogs using only positive reinforcement methods... because real learning happens without fear or force.
But my qualifications aren't the reason this program exists.
REAListic RECALL was born from my own frustration. I was tired of training advice that felt like it was designed for robots, not real people with busy lives and actual emotions.
I'm a dog mum, not a drill sergeant. I wanted my dog to listen because she wanted to, not because I was forcing her to follow a rigid, joyless routine.
For years, I thought the problem was my dog. But the endless drills and rigid routines only made us both miserable.
The breakthrough came when I realized the problem wasn't her recall. It was our connection. It was how I was leading, how I was communicating, and how I was showing up to the relationship.
That discovery changed everything. Now, I help dog guardians around the world build a recall based on trust, not commands. We create training that honors your unique personalities, your dynamic as a team, and your very real, very full schedule.
When I’m not obsessing over dogs, you can find me on my yoga mat, escaping into a spicy romantasy novel, or enjoying a coffee with sprinkles (yes, sprinkles) while watching Hawaii Five-0 from my couch. Because a little island vibe goes a long way.
REAListic RECALL is my invitation to every dog mum who wants to feel proud, not pressured.
You don't need to 'alpha' your dog. You just need to lead like you: calm, clear, and confident.
❓FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q: What’s inside the course exactly?
A: Each week, you’ll receive short, powerful voice notes (around 7-10 minutes) delivered to a private podcast feed. This bite-sized format is designed to fit into your real life. You also get a light workbook to deepen your learning, plus exclusive access to bonus Q&A episodes for founding members.
Q: What makes this different from every other dog training course?
A: We train for your real life, not a sterile training field. This course is built around your nervous system, your schedule, and your dog's unique personality. There are no rigid protocols or performance pressure. Instead, you get grounded, practical tools that bring ease and connection back into your relationship, designed for the dog mum who is doing it all.
Q: What is the weekly time commitment? I'm already so overwhelmed.
A: This program is designed to reduce your overwhelm, not add to it. The core learning happens in two-three 7-10 minute audio lesson per week ... that’s it. The "work" isn't about blocking out hours for training drills. It's about applying small, powerful shifts to the things you're already doing, like your daily walks or playtime. This is about integration, not adding another item to your to-do list.
Q: What kind of results can I realistically expect, and how soon?
A: Success here isn't about achieving a "perfect," robot-like recall overnight. It’s about progress, not perfection. In the first few weeks, you'll notice a shift in your dynamic: your dog will start checking in with you more on walks, you'll feel calmer and more confident leading them, and the pressure will start to fade. The reliable recall is a natural result of this new foundation of trust, and the timeline is unique to every team. This course gives you the tools to build it for life.
Q: Do I need any prior training knowledge to join?
A: Absolutely not. All you need is a desire to connect with your dog. This program is designed to bring clarity, not more confusion, whether you’re a first-time dog mum or have tried everything else.
Q: My dog is really [stubborn/anxious/high-drive]. We've tried everything. Will this still work for us?
A: This course was created for dogs exactly like yours. The reason other methods fail is that they offer a one-size-fits-all formula. REAListic RECALL is different because it’s not about forcing a command; it’s about upgrading your communication. We focus on building a connection so strong that your dog chooses to listen. The tools inside are designed to adapt to your dog’s unique personality, not erase it.
Q: Can I listen on my phone?
A: Yes! It’s designed for it. You’ll get a private link that loads directly into your favorite podcast app (Apple, Spotify, etc.). It’s ready to listen whenever and wherever you are: on a walk, in the car, or during a quiet moment at home.
Q: Can I submit my questions?
A: Yes! As a founding member, you get direct access. You can send in your questions via email in November, and I’ll answer them in bonus podcast episodes created exclusively for you.
Q: How long do I have access to the podcast?
A: You have lifetime access. It’s a one-time payment for unlimited, on-demand learning. You can revisit the content anytime you need a refresher, forever.
Q: Is there a refund policy?
A: Due to the digital nature of the course and the immediate access you receive, all sales are final. I am committed to making sure this is the right fit for you before you join. If you have any hesitation, please send me a DM or email. We can chat through your goals and decide if this is the perfect next step for you and your dog.
