Follow our lead into how to BE in the State of Love.  We touch upon how, when life calls us to nurture and let go, we must begin with love and care for ourselves. Explore with us how we can love and care from afar while being emotionally and spiritually safe. Special note: Episode  #20 is rich in content.

Jen and MIndy continue to discuss creating a fresh appraoch to 2022. Mindy took the lead in sharing some practical and down to earth practices she has developed in her life to care for herself and her horses. We touched upon how self discipline, accountability and self awareness allows us to show up and BE of service. Jen highlighted how horses model the value of giving and receiving support in order to thrive. We ended the podcast with a wonderful quote from Richard Rohr: "Life is not meant to be about you, you are meant to be about life."

Discover some parallels of how horses aid us in maneuvering life as an adult. And, how they help us as parents as we assist our children. Jen and Mindy end with "how to" strategies via poet Mary Oliver's "One and Precious Life Concept."

Join Jen and Mindy as they discuss several topics...Jen's experience surviving Covid, "the Vid" as it is called. Mindy's time with her students, which is a way of service as well as a way of changing lives. 

Horses see the unseen, and hear the unheard, which is why collaborating with them can be so beneficial for us. So we can give voice to what needs to be seen, and what needs to be heard.

Update: The correct quote Mindy mentioned is as follows: "Those that wield the greatest power of intention are people who have a deeply grounded sense of self and feel no need to exert that self on others."

Are you ready for some much needed horse wisdom on how to manage the drama that is part of life?

Horses, as prey animals, have learned how to thrive despite the drama that exists in their daily existence. Leaning how to NOT just survive but thrive in your life's drama centers around living: Drama around us does not mean drama within us!

Another invaluable insight about drama--as people, our experiences and core values easily ignite drama. Affirming healthy drama management techniques include: healthy boundaries, the value of stepping back, and taking the time to do what you love. 

Moving Through Transition--Here is how to do it:

• Consistency
• Acknowledgement
• Right Attitude
• Support

Think less. BE more.
