After Floridians voted to legalize medical cannabis in 2016, Angela sold Tampa Bay Parenting Magazine and hosted the Canna Conference, an educational event to bring together doctors, veterinarians and patients to learn about the positive effects of medical cannabis. During that time, Angela also earned a professional certification in Medical Cannabis for therapeutic use from the University of Vermont, College of Medicine. Since receiving her certification, Angela became active in Women Grow and United for Care, and became an advocate for safe, natural, ethically grown hemp and medical cannabis for human and animal use.

In addition to educating the pet community through her own podcast, Your Natural Dog, Angela has been a featured speaker at holistic and pet wellness seminars, expos, and joined many other holistic pet experts on their own podcasts. She is available for training and speaking engagements, and continues to share her knowledge and experience.

To see Angela on her rescue farm today, surrounded by animals, is to truly see her in her element. Looking at this furry, joyful family you would never suspect that Angela and her pets were once full of aches, pains and anxiety. Today, Angela is the mother to her pups Odie, Jolene, Maza, and Rhemi, as well as multiple ducks, roosters, chickens, geese, plus Penelope the pig, Brenda the one-legged pigeon, and of course the many dogs that she fosters from time-to-time at Fire Flake Farm.
