" “I’ll scratch your back if you scratch mine!” One of the ways horses demonstrate reciprocity is through the act of mutual grooming. It feels so good to have their back scratched by their buddy that they can’t help but to return the favor!
Soulful entrepreneurs are notorious for ‘giving the store away’ in the form of their heart and time. It’s like a horse scratching his buddy’s back over and over again and never getting his back scratched in return...."
"As a quality of quantum leap readiness, courage is a way of being.
You are courageous if you have taken even one step toward building your own business with the intention of creating something wonderful for yourself and your herd.
Becoming a soulful entrepreneur is one of most challenging, enlightening, rewarding, scary, gut wrenching, fulfilling adventures you can possibly embark upon. Just because you’re scared sh!tless doesn’t mean you don’t have courage!
Think of a time you might of asked your horse to cross a wide creek of fast moving water. Or with some horses, a tiny mud puddle! Did she balk, backed up, spin around, say ‘no’ every way she could think to make you understand she did not want to cross that water? And you lovingly held your intention and belief in her ability to step into uncertainty....."
"You have a desire to make a difference through your service to others.
What is your level of focus? How disciplined are you in your efforts to reach the people you are meant to serve? You may have the highest intentions to serve for their greatest good but how will they know you are the best provider for them?
In order to create maximum impact for your clients and yourself you will need to...."
"An attitude of amusement not only raises your physical vibration to a higher feeling state of wellbeing, it creates a magnetic effect on others around you to take things less seriously.
I learned the importance of humor and horse training late in my life with horses. I used to believe that success was achieved when the horse did what I wanted him to do exactly the way I had it pictured in my mind. I was frequently frustrated and cranky with our lessons. As was my horse..."
"Much has been written about the power of a grateful heart. According to Plato’s law, as you feel grateful, you become attractive, not only in your physical beauty, but in your relationships with people. This vitality draws in new opportunities for work and creative solutions.
To consistently accept and hold gratitude for what is happening in your life and the world, no matter what, sunshine or tornado, requires practice and diligent awareness..."
"Horses have a huge capacity for accepting the here and now. When a horse is basking in the warm sun on a cool day, she is not lamenting the fact that every day is not like this. She is simply experiencing the moment, standing in what is.
When the rains roll in and the wind kicks up she does not practice gratitude for the previous warm sun in hopes that it will bring it back. She does not try to manifest a sunny day or put on a ‘happy face’ in order to get through the storm. She does what she can to make herself comfortable. ...."
"A horse fully trusts its instincts and the instincts of the herd. They navigate their world by reading energy and intentions from each other and their environment. And only then do they respond. They do not second guess if they are right or wrong or wonder if God wants them to go a different direction. They trust one another and themselves to demonstrate the different leadership skills required to navigate a myriad of circumstances....."
No doubt you have an extraordinary capacity for love. Especially for your horses, family, friends and clients! Love of what is good, is easy.
Holding compassion and forgiveness requires letting go of judgement of others and especially yourself. That can be hard....
High Intention - Low Attachment: a state in which we can readily overcome our attachment for things, circumstances, people, approval or concepts of the world and achieve a higher perspective.
Horses do not hold on to the ‘what ifs’ of any given experience. If a plastic bag blows across the pasture and sends them galloping and snorting in surprise for a minute or two, they don’t stand around making up stories about what could’ve happened if that plastic bag had been a mountain lion! After the curious ones check it out, everyone goes back to grazing. Back to a clear state of being present.

"What is your safe container to be curious about what is possible for you and your work in the world without fixating on the fear of undesired outcomes? A high level of curiosity toward all aspects of your life and business just might be the penultimate characteristic that determines the success or failure of your long-term vision."
