Social media has a certain way of framing our lives to look full of rainbows and lollipops - but as we all know, life is full of unexpected twists and turns.

Our Leading Edge Founder, Jane Hemingway-Mohr, has just spent the month of May in hospital recovering from an accident and her business partner, Alice had complications following a routine operation earlier this year.

Life is full of challenges that test our resilience and resolve. For both of us, these situations cemented just how much we love what we do and how grateful we are to continue our work despite challenges that come our way. We are also so blessed to be supported by our wonderful families, friends and colleagues.

We are going to talk about life lessons and the power of resilience and positivity.

Life itself is easy...deep breath in; deep breath out. It's everything else that challenges us, deepens us, and breaks us down - that makes life hard.

Kari Fulmek had a dream that fuelled and fulfilled everything she ever wanted in life. Stepping into her dream was easy, she just said 'YES'.

It's what came after the initial affirmation that would take her on a ride through hell.

Kari's story is one of guts and loss, of passion and perseverance. It's the kind of tale that takes you on a rollercoaster ride of feelings, hoping like hell things will turn out, but knowing that her story isn't over yet.

Leadership means a lot of different things to a lot of different people. But it is something that will drive us forward and move us up onto a new level in our lives, our careers and in our relationships.

Our horses take on a lot. And usually it is from us! We need to be able to help them release those pieces that no longer are of value to them to help them stay grounded…

But we also need to release! What are the ways that you release? Do you have a release in your life?

Especially in the world that we are living in today - we need to release!

Mona McGregor is curious, inquisitive, and maybe a bit intrusive. She doesn’t consider many topics off limits. You say intrusive, she says “interested.” As a sex therapist, mental health counsellor, and coach, it’s been her love and pleasure to listen to her client’s stories and help them build their Ideal Life.

Here in Australia and in New Zealand, restrictions for getting together are easing greatly. We can even travel between the two countries. Yippee! We feel blessed. So while in-person connection will never really be replaced, it’s great we have so many tools for remote connection and working, especially as the pandemic is far from over. At Equine Connection, we have solutions to cover all bases, including our new Family Herd series, helping families reconnect and understand each other better than ever.
