At the start of every new year, we are flooded with social media posts about the best goals and resolutions to set, and how we can maintain them once the first ten days are over. I, for one, have never been a fan of new year’s resolutions because they always seem to be centred around…

White-Knuckled Ride
Anyone who works with horses can tell you that it's never dull. Every day is a new adventure, and every horse is different from the last. Some horses will head out on the trail without a second thought, excited to get away from the barn and see new things. Others are more hesitant, unsure of…
Created on Purpose
Have you ever looked in the mirror and wondered why God created you the way that He did? Or maybe you see someone on the street and wonder why you can’t have the same things as them. It’s so easy to fall into the trap of comparison that the enemy sets up for us. When…
Vines and Branches
I’m what you would call a wannabe-green thumb. I love plants, I have several throughout my house, and I’ll always adopt a couple more when I see them in stores. The only thing is that I struggle to keep them alive. When you come over, you’ll see plants happily growing in cute pots, but what…

Focus
Where do you usually look during the day? Down at your phone, over the steering wheel out the windshield, at the ground beneath your feet, at the computer screen in front of you, off into the distance wishing that you could be anywhere else but where you are right now? Where we look is where…
Lessons from the Round Pen
Anyone who has worked with horses will tell you that they never stop learning. You’re always learning how to be a better rider, trainer, listener, and partner. Along with that, you’ll also learn a whole lot about yourself as you work with horses, whether you want to or not. I’ve done a lot of learning…
Compassion Over Comparison
I’ve written about this topic before (click here to read my other posts) but it’s something that I don’t think can be talked about enough, so I’m going to write about it again. What issue am I talking about? Comparison. This is a word that has bombarded our media and has addressed about so many…
