A 1,600-pound animal can read your heartbeat from four feet away, and it won’t lie to you. That’s why we sat down with a therapist who brings horses into the healing process, weaving equine therapy with EMDR to help clients move past trauma, anxiety, and the tech-driven jitters that keep so many of us stuck.

From a hilarious origin story involving beer miles to a jaw-dropping barn breakthrough, this conversation follows an unusual path to a clear takeaway: your nervous system is trainable, and your relationships, human and equine, will tell you the truth if you listen.

The episode also pulls the curtain back on modern pressures: intermittent reinforcement behind social media, shrinking attention, and the intimacy gap created by dating apps. 

Whether you’re curious about horses, skeptical of EMDR, or just tired of living in fight-or-flight, you’ll find tools, stories, and a kinder way to align ambition with presence.
