Two by Two: The Former Medical Coordinator

When Aisha accepted the role of medical coordinator for Two by Two Rescue, she expected challenges. What she didn’t expect was a complete lack of structure, the absence of vet oversight, a backlog of untreated animals—and a director more interested in controlling people than caring for pets.

Sonya, Director of Two by Two Rescue, once asked Aisha—in a work group text—if “SHOOOGA” happened on her date with a coworker… and whether she “climbed him like a tree.” Yes, that’s exactly what it sounds like: a sexual metaphor. From a supervisor. In a professional setting.

In this first half of our conversation, Aisha walks us through her shocking experience behind the scenes: from managing hundreds of dogs without support, to being forced to work out of her car, to watching legitimate offers of help get shut down in favor of personal power plays. She opens up about the chaos, the manipulation, and the moment she was told to lie about legal custody just to schedule a vet visit.

This episode is a deep dive into what happens when ego and image are prioritized over ethical animal care—and why more people are speaking out.

🚨 Content Warning: This episode contains discussion of animal neglect, workplace manipulation, and emotionally distressing dynamics inside a rescue environment. Listener discretion is advised.

Part Two drops soon, and trust me—you’ll want to hear what happens next.
