Why Horses?
Working alongside horses taps into their innate wisdom, which comes from how they are designed to interact with their environment and stay safe as prey animals. Horses respond to our body language and our intentions. They provide signals that serve as a mirror and deliver non-judgmental and actionable feedback.
Horses provide a powerful means to gain vital self-awareness that is not possible in human-to-human interactions. Feedback from a horse is visceral; you feel it in your body. The results are often profound and can drive real change in your life. Working with horses provides what we need most today in our leadership, a reconnection to our purpose, our humanness, and our intuition as our guide forward.
Emotional Agility
Keenly aware of emotional energies, horses’ sense what we’re feeling and processing, sometimes better than we do. We may hide our real feelings, even from ourselves, but you cannot fool a horse. Horses can sense the emotions that lurk beneath the surface of our awareness and mirror them back to us, showing us what we’ve been missing, avoiding, or hiding.
Master Change
In this real-time experience, you and the horse begin to make sense of your new insights and integrate them into your life going forward in ways unavailable through human-to-human interaction.
Join us for this unique and powerful integration immersion to ensure you get the most from your plant medicine experience.
Awake the Soul Details
Once you’ve worked with Horse Medicine, you will never look at yourself and the world the same again.
Deep Reconnection to your Insights
With your Horse Partner, deepen the understanding and impact of your plant medicine lessons.
Transformational Breakthrough
Surrender the mind and connect deeply with the natural world to heal the mind, body, and spirit.
Fast-Track Authentic Growth
Quickly identify and loosen the grip of your biggest challenge in the way of your greatest potential.

Embody and anchor new behaviors and actions, paving the way for your new life with ease and grace.

What is Horse Medicine
There is true magic that exists in the human-horse interaction. Horses provide a unique and powerful new perspective on how to accelerate our growth and tap into new gifts we never thought possible.
Horses are living biofeedback teachers. Deeply connected to their environment and the Earth, Horses sense and provide instant feedback on the emotions and sensations their human is experiencing in the moment (whether the human recognizes it or not). They help us see through the felt perception of the heart.
Horses reconnect us to the language of the body and heart. As you increasingly honor the body’s sensations, you increasingly understand them to constitute a language of thought that is distinct from what the head knows…intuition!
Finally, horses are beautifully designed authenticity builders. They help us remember who we are at a time we need it most. You may be able to fool me, but you cannot fool a horse. Through the powerful interaction between the human and horse, you find ways to drop the masks hiding your brilliance and come home to yourself.
Join the horses on this powerful journey back to wholeness. This is truly a one-of-a-kind experience that will profoundly change your life.

Results you can expect
The investment
How much time have you wasted trying to find the clarity you so long for which would enable you to experience a fulfilling, peaceful, and joyful life and career?
Without a transformational experience and proven process for integrating change, you’ll get the same results you’ve always gotten. Frustration, anger, apathy, sadness…
What has it cost you to stay safely in your comfort zone, afraid to make the jump even though you know in your heart it’s the best thing to do?
These intentionally designed Growth Intensives are an equal balance of support and challenge. With potent peak experiences, it’s important to have highly skilled facilitators and processes to keep you safe and supported throughout the experience. But you must be willing to step out of your comfort zone and face the scary and uncomfortable fears and challenges that you’ve been avoiding for years.
Trust us, it’s not for everyone. It’s only for those who are ready to break the chains stopping them from living a full and enriched life. If that sounds like you, then let’s talk.
