Highlights from the episode:
- Allison 3:50 — The relationship between the pet industry and tech — What’s been fun for me is that the pet space seems to be a little bit suspicious about tech and technology and tech solutions in pets. Which I’ve found really interesting and refreshing.
- Allison 6:05 — Taking the leap — It’s really easy for people to say, “I’ve only ever done this, so I can’t go into that.” I didn’t even really think about that. I just started a new company in pets, because that’s what I wanted to do.
- Allison 9:15 — How an active dog can change your workday — After I got Addie, my dog, I always joke about my step count going up. … We need to walk. We need to get out. We need to be running. We go running together now. So getting those ten to twelve thousand steps a day is a new non-negotiable. And when you start to put that into your workday, it changes everything.
- Allison 11:00 — Helping dogs helps people — At first I was like, “well I love dogs, so sure, let’s help dogs.” But now I realize that any time you’re doing that, you’re also helping people, too. It’s so interconnected.
- Haley 26:30 — How our content can support dog parents & dogs — I might factually understand a piece of information but I just haven’t touched it in so long, haven’t thought about it, and it’s not top of mind. A nicely curated piece of content can jog my memory and make me think, “oh yeah, when was the last time I gave Scout a designated chew?”

What’s a Rich Text element?
The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.
Static and dynamic content editing
Static and dynamic content editing
A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
How to customize formatting for each rich text
Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
