Keep On Dreaming!

In my late 30’s my heart and soul were searching for something that was so real and purposeful in life. I’d always been an Entrepreneur and done very well for myself, but I kept thinking, where is my true purpose in this super short life that we all have. I didn’t want to get into a business that was about selling materials items anymore. I wanted something so solid, so real, and so purposeful, that if I died tomorrow I would have found my calling. A purpose not only for myself but for those who've entered into my life as well. So for a couple of years I searched, and searched, and I threw it out to the universe. I did my goal book and I used technology to find things on google.

Where do I start? All my life I dreamt of working with horses, but I didn’t have a clue how I would do it. I’ve never had an interest in riding lessons, and didn’t have the talent, or gift to train horses. I came across this article in a magazine about Equine Assisted Learning saying that the horses are the teachers, and on top of that, you learn how to build a business with objectively driven programs. I was like, “no way!!” something does exist where I wouldn’t have to start a business from scratch? WOW!! I am so in!

It's been almost 7 years and I cannot believe a person can be so blessed after working so very hard on their dreams to be able to work with these most magnificent creatures, the horses. PLUS every single time we have a program, the people always have a change because it's the horses telling them what they need to do, versus a person telling them the things they need to change. It's beautifully overwhelming to be a part of helping people, and helping them to be whom they want to be!!

The Woman Who Gave Me Everything

One of the hardest days of my life was saying the physical goodbye to my incredible mom! It’s amazing how strong we must get when we have to and I knew I would have to be strong to write and read this at my mom’s funeral as I knew no one else could do her life justice in what she did as they didn’t know here like I did. There was no other like my mom, Faye! This was a little unorthodox that I, her daughter, said the eulogy but so was my mom, so I believe this was a great fit as she gave me everything in life. For myself, the loss of her seemed and continues to seem greater every day because I simply just miss her. I miss her voice; I miss calling her for every little simple question and just being able to talk with her. Within the first month of her passing, both my youngest daughter and I tried calling her home number and cell number because it seemed quiet, too quiet, without her presence. Mom and I had an incredible relationship not just as, mother and daughter, but we were soul ...

From Across the Seas

In September we had received an email from South Korea asking us if we would be interested in being a reference for their government initiated study for program development through horse and healing programs. How exciting is this?! A group coming all the way from the other side of the world conducting a research piece on this powerful EAL program! So of course, without any doubt in our mind, we said yes! The team that came down were composed of university professors, doctors and horse specialists. They came, researched, asked questions, ran through a couple programs, and studied our unique educational approach! However, this blog isn’t necessarily about their research. It’s about how AMAZING having a language barrier was. They had spoke some English - but not all of them. And yet, we all understood each other through the power of body language. The night before they came out to our facility, they had asked us if we would like to go to dinner, so yet again, OF COURSE! We had met up a...

Our Journey Around the World: Part 17 - Wellington, Florida

It has been a cold winter in Alberta, so the opportunity to head off to Florida was perfect timing! However, our booking for this could have been thought out a bit better. The course was Starting on May 1st, but when we booked the course, we didn’t realize that Karsyn's wedding reception (Kari’s oldest daughter and Carolyn was the emcee for the event) would be the Saturday before. Generally for travelling schools we tend to get there the day before so we can check out the set up and location and to make sure we know where we are going (if you have read the rest of our travelling blogs you will understand why we need to do that). Well this wasn’t going to be the case for going to Wellington Florida. Luckily, our beautiful host Sasha was willing to work with us and send us pictures of how the set up was so we felt a little better about getting there so late. So we got up and headed straight to the airport after a beautiful reception and about 4 hours of sleep. Off to Florida we wen...
