Lawyer and animal advocate Taj Uppal is charged with a felony crime and potentially faces six years in jail for rescuing a baby goat. He joins Anitha to talk about why he saved Phoebe and the consequences of his kindness.
Listeners will be shocked to discover who owns the factory farm where Taj found Phoebe in such dire condition. Many animals are still suffering at this factory farm, but thanks to Taj, Phoebe is not among them. She is now living the best life in a sanctuary.
A decision about Taj’s legal issues could come as early as August 25th. He shares how stressful this time has been and how he manages the stress—leaning on his friends, family and his faith.
An incredible conversation with an incredible human.
