Ollie Neveu is a writer, artist, coach, mentor and fur mamma my go to gal when it comes to all things fluffy! She's a totally awesome spiritual channel for the animal kingdom and runs the most amazing animal healing circles once a fortnight that anyone (human or animal!) can join. Ollie is high vibe to the max, super intuitive and just gosh darn lovely too!

So grab yourself a tall glass of chocolate mylk and come hang out with us at the PJ party! :D

OMG I'm so excited to have you here at my party, how excited are you OLLIE?!

So excited! I’ve also brought my greyhound Guru Dog Neve along, I hope that’s ok? She’s totally good with cats. And by good with cats I mean - she’s terrified of them lol.

She's so welcome! Zorro is scared of mice so they'll make a good pair!

What kind of music are we going to have at the pyjama party?

Stevie Nicks obviously. Michael Jackson always. All the best 90s stuff. Jamiroquai. Backstreet Boys. Maybe some Disney classics soundtrack for sing-a-longs? Also - we can roo with Neve!

I'm going to wear my Hello Kitty PJs, what pyjamas are you going to wear?

Nice! (Did you know she’s not even a cat? Mind blown!) I will be wearing one of my husbands old tshirts, some extra large and extra comfy pj pants, socks AND slippers because I got cold feet. My personal motto is “If you’re not snug - you’re dead”. I take comfort seriously. Plus a kimono. Because always yes to the kimono. Guru Dog Nevie will be wearing her hot pink dressing gown which used to be a blanket. Greyhounds wear pjs too - it’s a thing.

What fun make up or beauty products are in your overnight bag?

Coconut oil! Slather that shit everywhere! (Not the face though, I’m one of those sad people who can’t use it on the face). Also bentonite clay which I am obsessed with. We can make face masks or poultices or clay snowmen! And a toothbrush and toothpaste for Nevie because you don’t want to deal with her morning breath (sorry Neve!)

Who does your hair?

Define ‘does’ lol. Basically it grows out of my scalp and sometimes I wash it. I let it does what it wants generally. If I am feeling fancy I will brush it. I learnt a long time ago that I’m too lazy for hair ‘doings’ unfortunately. Nevie’s fur is all naturale too. We’ve accepted the grey that’s come up in the past year. She still looks pretty good for 11 though right?

**And what hairstyle would you have if you could have anything? (I'd totally have an 80's perm!)**

Yaas 80s perm! I’m feeling similarly inclined. I’ve always wanted like a really good ‘fro. Hats would be impossible, but I’m willing to sacrifice head wear fashion for the best ‘fro ever!

Where do you get all those cute outfits you’re always wearing?

Actually - a lot of my wardrobe comes from Ebay these days. There’s some good stuff on there, and I love the thrill of the auction! Way better than lining up at H&M. Or otherwise - my husband’s side of the closet.

So like, how do you make money to pay for those cool pyjamas and all your awesome clothes and make up and stuff?

Well asides from the stuff I steal from my husband, I can buy things because people pay me to do cool stuff. Like writing and partnering with animals to support them with their mission on the planet - which is to help us to come home to ourselves and find the peace our souls once knew. Plus I do animal communication and healing sessions too. It’s a pretty sweet deal.

Sounds incredible! How did you get that job?

Well I was an accountant. That didn’t work out. I ended up having an emotional and physical breakdown because it was so way off base from what my heart wanted me to do. And the only thing that would bring light into my life during this dark period of my life - was watching YouTube videos of pug dogs (true story!). I decided I needed a dog of my own to show me how to find joy everyday, and that’s how Neve came into our lives. She opened my heart to the sacred soul connection I have with animals, that I had ignored for so many years. I decided to follow my heart for a bit, and we all ended up in London, where I now get to do all this amazing stuff by sharing animal wisdom!

What fun stuff do you like doing on school nights?

Nevie and I miss my husband when he’s at work, so school nights are all about family time, eating a home cooked meal and watching some kind of something on Netflix.

How about on the weekend?

Right now we are living in the city, which gets quite overwhelming at the best of times. So in the weekends we try to get out to one of the big parks like Hampstead Heath to chill in nature and recharge our souls. And make new doggie friends!

What do you want to be when you grow up?

Someone with all the rescue animals she can possibly fit into her patch of land. It’s pretty inevitable I’m going to end up living on a farm with a rag tag bunch of wonky animals one day. And I’m totally down with that. My husbands sort of accepted it. He could be in denial.

I'm getting hungry, what's your favourite pyjama party food and beverages?

Rebel Kitchen Chocolate Mylk for sure, with the little straws because that’s just so much more fun to drink out of. Snacks is anything Booja Booja makes, in chocolate flavour of course. And peanut almond popcorn...which we could dip in chocolate vegan ice cream! Just cover me in chocolate basically. Neve will snack on some banana please (she’s way more healthy than me!)

Favourite pizza topping?

Tomato sauce base, re fried beans, mushroom, avocado, peppers (not hot ones), spinach! Yum.

Re fried beans??!

What movies and TV shows are we going to watch?

Game of Thrones! And then to recover from the trauma, Arrested Development to lighten the mood. Then Gilmore Girls to swoon over Jess and hopefully see him in our dreams! (Just me?). Maybe Lassie for Guru Dog Nevie?

Do you have a favourite teen movie?!

10 Things I Hate About You! Oh the feels.

OMG what was that noise?! :O Do you believe in ghosts? Have you ever seen one?

It might have been Neve. Sorry! I do believe in ghosts. I don’t think I’ve seen one. Unless they look like totally normal people, then how do I know I haven’t walked past one in the street?

Have you ever had any other cool paranormal encounters?

I’ve seen some weird lights in the sky sometimes that may or may not be from something that’s not a human plane? Other than that - just like spirit animals talking to me and stuff. Regular things, you know.

just regular old spirit animals, uh huh!

What do you think happens when we die?

Our souls return to where ever they came from, and figure out if they have more stuff to learn. If they do, back to Earth School for you! But also your soul can stick around to help people in your family etc, to be their spirit guide. At the same time. It’s not linear. That’s what I think anyway. How bout I let you know if I die first!

I know we are never really gone though. My childhood cat Taffeta spent years trying to tell me that through dreams. Only took me about 10 years to get the message lol !! I guess when you die you become extremely patient...

Who do you think you were in a past life?

I’ve done a lot of living, but one that stands out to me most is being a Central American woman in charge of the herd of paint horses that belonged to the tribe, but also were traded and sold to other people. That’s probably because I really would love a pony to cuddle in this life time!! You know, aside from my mini pony Nevie.

What time do you usually go to bed?

10.30pm ish. We’re not ravers, we enjoy sleep. Especially Neve. She sleeps 18 hours a day!

What should we do tomorrow?

We have to go to the beach please, we love the ocean. Also...are there ponies around here? Can we go stalk some maybe? And let’s get more chocolate, because I’m pretty sure the stuff for tonight wont last!
