A few months ago I had someone ask me to do an episode for new horse owners. She asked me to cover what I would consider to be the basics when it comes to horse ownership. As I have sat in contemplation of this, what I realized is that instead of calling these things basics, I’d consider them more the fundamentals or foundational elements of horse ownership. And so this extends w

It was amazing to host Brittany Ference, Executive Director of Great Escape Mustang Collaborative, for a very honest conversation about their work with these incredible wild horses. Brittany shares some of the realities of the journey many mustangs experience from living in the wild to being round up, domesticated, and all too often, what happens if these horses don’t settle well

We are back with a big one.When this episode dropped in as wanting to be explored, I knew I needed to call for backup. So I immediately connected with Dilara to ask if she would be willing to jump into this massive conversation with me, knowing she would be capable of holding the clear lens of detachment and neutrality necessary to genuinely explore this question.So in she came and

I was invited into the herd to record this week’s episode all about the ever-evolving and dynamic nature of identity and relationships.It is often a common human experience to become attached with certain perceptions of our horses.
