Hello Reader, We're kicking off the Liberated Equestrian Podcast with a bit of the backstory of breakthrough that birthed the inspiration for this podcast! It's a story of childhood inspiration and fairy-tale dreams. It's a story of dashed dreams and embracing the reality of hard work, detours, and other realized dreams. It's a story of open doors and closed ones. Even if you're not a horse person, I think you'll find this podcast inspiring and equipping on your journey of personal and professional growth and development! While I may not be "riding my horse to the mailbox," I'm grateful for the destinations on this journey that led to becoming a second-season equestrian and mental health professional specializing in equine-assisted services. So here I find myself recounting the journey with horses and humans that tell a story of learning and growth, loss and disappointment, hope and redemption, with the hope of helping you find your way forward. As I say in this episode . . . It is time for breaking moments to be your breakthrough.The Liberated Equestrian is really about turning those moments that could break you into the kind of breakthrough that leads to freedom and growth. Whether that breakthrough occurs with the support of counseling, which was critical for my own healing, or simply the education you'll find on this podcast, at stableminded.us, and through the Liberated Equestrian Patreon community, the goal is for you to be able to identify what you need to move forward and enjoy your life with horses . . . and humans! In this place of belonging, with other liberated equestrians, may you find the courage to find your voice, pursue healing, and be transformed in your horsesmanship and humanship. Grab the Liberated Equestrian show notes and listen at Stableminded.us! Or tune in on your favorite listening app! You'll find the Pod on iTunes, Spotify, and YouTube. It's a privilege to serve you on this journey, in all the different ways we can stabilize and thrive together!

Hello Reader, Does the thought of releasing restrictions bring you comfort or fear? On the one hand, restrictions can be protective and provide safety. But on the other hand, restrictions can be limiting and smothering. In this case, when I'm referring to releasing restrictions, I'm speaking of the tension we hold in our minds and bodies that hinders movement and optimal function. It's an idea that has been on my mind ever since interviewing Cathy Woods for this latest episode of the...
