What does an award-winning entrepreneur, a TEDx Speaker, a baconatarian (thats a vegetarian who still eats bacon), a former rapper (who opened for the Wu-Tang Clan) and previously 332 pound man (who has since lost over 120 pounds despite his affinity for bacon) have in common?

They are all the same guy!

I have always had a deep connection with animals. I watch in awe as they move through this world with ease and fluid energy, never holding on to energy that does not serve them. We as humans have become too heady in our daily lives. We lie to our friends, our families, our therapists, even ourselves about what we truly want - for the soul sake of "looking good" or at the very least "not looking bad." We play this game to our own detriment because what we want in life should be of the utmost importance. This is why I trust the animals. They are no-bullshit-tell-it-like-it-is creatures of this Earth. They know when you are blowing smoke. They can feel it in your energy.

I support people by accessing their authentic self and learning to own their power through heart connection with the horse.

As I explore the mystical world of Equine Guided Education I share the gifts of the horse wisdom with people wanting to know themselves deeply and access parts of their being that they have been cut off from. A horse's response to energy is pure and non-judgmental. This allows us to connect quicker and deeper with purpose. Through my journey in coaching and healing I have discovered that the way of the horse allows people to reveal what they didn't even know they needed. Although my Ontological Coaching and Equine Guided Education were formal, the lessons I walked away with were certainly not. As energetic beings there is an inner knowing that comes from quieting the mind and allowing the magic to move through us. The training just allowed the space and the platform for this transformation to occur. This is what happens when we Honor The Feminine within. This is what happens when we choose to go deep. And that is what I do. I guide people to go deep within and discover who they truly are.

Devonne is working on future workshops.  She wants to recognize http://www.lovehoofbeats.com/index.html and http://www.centralcoastequestrian.org/ for all of their support.

Hey there! I’m Jenna, serial dieter turned self love activist.

For a decade I dieted intensely and never found what I was looking for. Turned out I didn’t want to be skinny, I wanted to be happy.

I now teach women how to back out of dieting and into a body and life they love.

Fun fact: I love pizza … a lot.
