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…

White-Knuckled Ride

Oct 4, 2021Jan 1, 2023Categories Lessons from the SaddleLeave a Comment on 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…

God Will Provide

May 21, 2021Categories Wild-Hearted Women of the WestLeave a Comment on God Will Provide

“God will provide,” I repeat to myself as I open up this month’s vet bill. “God will provide.” I squeeze my eyes shut to try and distract myself from the fact that this is my client’s final session with me before I send them out into the world – healing, ready… but leaving me with…

Tip Your Ears Back

Sep 2, 2019Sep 23, 2019Categories Honey & Salt, Lessons from the SaddleLeave a Comment on Tip Your Ears Back

When a horse is listening to you, they’ll tip their ears back towards you, showing you that their focus is on what you’re asking them to do and not on everything that’s going on around them. When their ears are pricked forward, it means that their attention is elsewhere, probably on something blowing in the…
