One-Hit-Wonder

May 29, 2023May 28, 2023Categories Honey & Salt, Lessons from the SaddleLeave a Comment on One-Hit-Wonder

My husband loves classic country, but I’m not talking about 90’s country gold; I’m talking about 1950’s songs about cattle drives and trapping animals. I hadn’t heard many of those songs before (much to his chagrin), but he put together a playlist, and I’ve come to love those old songs. There’s a particular song by…

Let Them Go On A Good Day

Apr 10, 2023Apr 10, 2023Categories Honey & Salt, Lessons from the SaddleLeave a Comment on Let Them Go On A Good Day

One of my favourite things about my job is the animals. I grew up in the city and spent my childhood hearing stories about my parents growing up on farms. As a child, I tried to find ways to recreate those same farm experiences in my life. That usually meant playing lots of pretend in…

Connection Over Control

Mar 20, 2023Categories Honey & Salt, Lessons from the Saddle1 Comment on Connection Over Control

There’s an idea in the horse world that anyone can get a horse to do something with enough force, the same way that you can get anyone to do anything with enough coercion. The difference is that that horse, or that person, probably won’t want to do that thing again. I do not agree with…

Finding Rhythm

Feb 27, 2023Categories Honey & SaltLeave a Comment on Finding Rhythm

After these last two years of constant changes and unanswered questions, I’ve been craving rhythms I can settle into and wrap around myself. I want weekly coffee dates and Tuesday taco nights. I want to live a life full of Sunday morning pancakes before church and days that are bookended by walking and reading. The…

Check Yes or No

Feb 13, 2023Categories Honey & SaltLeave a Comment on Check Yes or No

When my now husband and I were first getting to know each other, I was an anxious wreck. We met through online dating – which I said I would never do because I didn’t want to be talking to a forty-year-old pretending to be in their twenties – and we hit it off right away.…

Eye’s Up

Feb 6, 2023Feb 4, 2023Categories Honey & Salt, Lessons from the SaddleLeave a Comment on Eye’s Up

One phrase that I find myself saying a lot when I’m teaching riding lessons is, “Eyes up!” That’s because when you’re riding, you need to be able to see where you’re going so you know that it’s safe for both you and your horse. Looking down at your horse – while a very nice view…

Keep Going

Jan 30, 2023Jan 29, 2023Categories Honey & Salt4 Comments on Keep Going

I almost stopped writing yesterday. I was ready to shut down the blog, delete Microsoft word, and close the laptop. When I started this blog, I had no plans for what it would become. I started it as a way to keep friends and family in the loop of what was happening while I was…

Coming Back Home

Jan 23, 2023Jan 22, 2023Categories Honey & SaltLeave a Comment on Coming Back Home

My soul had been weary for many months last year, and it took a while to come back to life. I didn’t force it to be productive. I didn’t push it until it bent to my will. I simply sat in the winter of my soul. I didn’t try to melt the ice, till the…

Inquire Again

Jan 9, 2023Categories Honey & Salt1 Comment on Inquire Again

One thing I want to learn this year is how to slow down. I want to learn to keep doing the things that make me happy. I want to learn to keep living without feeling like I have to start from scratch every 365 days. Our world has become so laser-focused on hustling to be…

22 Lessons from 2022

Jan 2, 2023Jan 1, 2023Categories Honey & SaltLeave a Comment on 22 Lessons from 2022

This past year was filled with joy, laughter, and delightful newness. It was also one of deep darkness and sadness. I’ve found that when you look back on the year that’s just ended and see all of the things you’ve lived through, you’ll see a beautiful tapestry. With golden threads running alongside black ones, blues…

Katherina

Hello! I spend my days out in the forest on the back of a horse and my nights are spent with a book or binge-watching crime dramas. Writing has been one of my passions for a while now because I love how you can connect life, emotions, and experiences through words. I hope to shed light on issues that are seldom talked about and to share my own personal experiences as I fearlessly pursue a joyful life in the Lord.
