• Guest: John Minoprio had a career in film distribution but it was photography, especially photography of horses, that has always been an interest. John has been involved in a number of equestrian films including Royal Four-in-Hand, based on the book Competition Carriage Driving by The Duke of Edinburgh, and The Queen and Her Ceremonial Horses about the Royal Mews. John produced the film Royal Stables Oman and the book that followed it about His Majesty The Sultan of Oman’s horses.

• Guest: From a very early age, Kerri Lake had an uncommon awareness of interspecies connection, and she was always trying to discover ways to re-establish a harmony between humanity and all living beings. While attending UC Davis, it. became clear that the veterinary track wasn’t going to be the best way for Kerri to use her gifts to help horses and their people have kinder, healthier lives together. For the past several decades, Kerri has developed tools and skills that guide people to have more clarity in their own intuitive nature and broaden their communication with horses and each other.
