{Big Announcement!} The News I Didn't See Coming
Hello Reader,
Last week when we dropped our baby girl off at college, we had an experience in an elevator that might be easily forgotten if it wasn't for the feeling of being "jolted" every time it came to a stop.
Well "jolted" is an excellent word to describe another situation that I didn't see coming as it relates to Stableminded and my journey with Kodiak Jack. I was informed on August 18 that the farm which is home to Stablemind is being sold and new ownership will take over within 60 to 90 days.
You can imagine my heartbreak over this news considering the time I've invested in creating a space for all the programming I dreamed about offering as well as the client base I've been building and the significant attachment to the horses and people I get to work alongside.
And yet, God is completely in the details.
You might have also seen the news I posted recently that I joined the Take Heart Counseling and Equine-Assisted Psychotherapy team earlier this month. God is so incredibly kind to provide this opportunity before losing my Stableminded space at Honey Brook Stables. I will be able to continue to care for my current clients in a new location. Plus, so many of my dreams are in sync with Megan and the Take Heart team. Seriously, I'm excited to see what collaboration is going to do for those we get to serve together! Plus, there is a spot available for Kody to board at Take Heart, so that eliminates the juggling between two wonderful places.
Yes, God is faithful and kind and gracious in ways we can't even fathom until we experience it firsthand.
Buy what will happen to Stableminded and the Finding Calm curriculum due to be released by Horseclass.com?
For now, everything will stay the same from your vantage point, however, working with me for farm sessions will now take place at Three Hearts Ranch, home of Take Heart in Wernersville, PA.
While my heart is grieving the impending loss of the horse community that I dearly love at Honey Brook Stables, I am eager to see the plans and purposes of God unfold. I have a feeling He is up to something rather remarkable and can't wait to see what that is in the years to come.
I hope you'll stick around to watch the adventure unfold with me so that we can look back on this moment in awe of God together.
Peace and grace,
Peace and grace,
Lisa

Hello Reader, I hope this lands in your inbox with a fresh hope as we enter into a new season. I can't believe three months have passed since I shared the announcement of my sabbatical. Ironically, I began that email with these words: My word, has it been a season. . . . and those words are still incredibly fitting. Literally, what has transpired in the last month -- and this week alone may be an entire update all it's own. But for now, I'm sticking with what I drafted last week . . ....
Hello Reader, My word, has it been a season. If you've been listening to the StableMinded Podcast, you may have picked up on that reality. And yet, as I shared last month, my perspective of this particular season has been deeply impacted by what I encountered through studying the Scriptures and preparing to teach the Evergreen Retreat & Bible Study. Pruning is wounding, and rest needs to follow to make room for healing and flourishing. So it is not lost on me that, before I knew the farm...
Hello Reader, There’s a quiet belief many of us carry: “I’ll deal with it later.” Later, when life slows down. Later, when it hurts less. Later, when we have more capacity. But pain that gets postponed doesn’t disappear. It gets stored. Listen On iTunes | Spotify | YouTube In this episode of the StableMinded Podcast, I’m sharing how God has been teaching me about pruning, rest, and healing, while also leading other women through the brand new Evergreen Retreat & Bible Study curriculum.
