Grace, Grit & Gratitude: A Cancer Thriver's Journey from Hospice to Full Recovery with the Healing Power of Horses 🐴

Comanche the Wild Mustang & ocean conservation 📕

Equine Facilitated Learning/Coaching 🐴 Connect with the healing power of the horses to help balance your spiritual, mental and physical body through Equine Facilitated Learning (EFL) and

coaching in a gorgeous sanctuary. Specializing in grief, loss & difficult life transitions

Tara weaves together 25 years together of somatic experience with her love of horses. She was a horse-obsessed young girl being fortunate enough to spend summers with her cousins in New Hampshire who owned horses. Although she begged and pleaded with her parent she never got one of her own. Decades later while undergoing a particularly difficult life transition, she read 'The Tao of Equus' by Linda Kohanov which inspired her and helped her to remember her profound connection with horses. It is due to the healing experience she experienced with them which dramatically transformed and in a sense 'saved' her life. In the period of two years Tara went from living in the suburbs, being married with a successful Pilates studio and then decided to give it all up to follow her heart’s calling of helping people heal with horses. It was through this extreme leap of faith although pivotally challenging and terrifying that brought her back to life again. Now you can find her on the beautiful 10 acres of land which is Wind Horse Sanctuary with her three gorgeous horses feeling blessed to be practicing the work of Linda Kohanov. Tara is a Eponaquest™ equine facilitated learning and Power of the Herd ™ instructor developed through Linda Kohanov. Linda has created a innovative human-equine approach for developing emotional intelligence, leadership and relationship skills. Please visit the Eponaquest website for more information or check out Linda's books, 'The Tao of Equus', 'Riding Between the Worlds', 'The Way of the Horse' and 'The Power of the Herd'. Tara was the previous owner of Studio Equilibria, a Pilates, Gyrotonic and Yamuna Body Rolling studio in San Anselmo, CA from 2005-2013. Tara specializes in the human/horse bond for healing grief, loss, difficult life transitions and facilitating help for care-takers through offering grief rituals and private sessions. Horses have a powerful manner to guide us down the pathway of self-attunement and awareness. While in challenging situations, horses can help us find the true inner wisdom needed to bring balance into our lives. She has also trained in extensive shadow work, leading women's groups through embracing and learning to love their shadow.

Comanche & I have walked a long road together. He’s been my solid rock of a mustang horse for the past 10+ years, showing up in the unique manner that a true companion & soul mate horse does. 🐴

I’m incredibly blessed to have him by my side. He’s seen me through the deaths of some of my closest friends, my parents & my own near brush with death with stage 4 breast cancer. He’s held my pain, tears and has also been such an incredible source of joy & comfort for me. 🪷

I thought I would share some fun photos of us together over the years!

He’s also famous! The talented artist Nica Draws Nature and I created the children’s picture book ‘Comanche the Wild Mustang’ & the coloring book version. It tells his story of being taken out of the wild when he was a yearling in the Reno, Nevada area, being a Equine Facilitated Learning horse at Wind Horse Sanctuary, how he’s been a powerful healing friend for me, traveling across the ocean to Kaua’i, Hawaii with his buddy Blue & so much more! Learn more about wild horse conservation in the book too. Link in bio. 📕

He’s also a major character in my best selling book ‘Grace, Grit & Gratitude: A Cancer Thriver’s Journey from Hospice to Full Recovery with the Healing Power of Horses’!

If you’re interested in the Equine Facilitated Learning work I do, please also check out the horse work links in my bio! 🐎

So grateful for this gorgeous boy! ♥️

My next video interview release is with the magnanimous OG mermaid & fierce ocean conservation activist Hannah Mermaid !

I’m so excited to share this in depth conversation with Hannah to show what a leader she is in taking an important stand for the preservation of the ocean & her creatures. 🐋

I have had the privilege of getting to know her as a friend, learning from her with her 🧜‍♀️ techniques/underwater modeling a few times now.

While creating a prolific interview about her and having access to her files, I am blown away by the magnificent body of work she has created, through defending dolphins in Japan (the movie ‘The Cove’), swimming with sharks, whales, manta rays with such grace (believe me, I have swam with whales & sharks and she makes it look easy, it is not!) and bravely being the OG mermaid, pioneering a new field before it was a fad, this mersister is truly inspiring! ⚡️

She’s given a LIFETIME of dedication for her mission of being a voice for the ocean & is a gorgeous, humble and down to earth person inside and out.

As I was raised by passionate environmentalists, a biologist teacher father & wildlife safari leading parents, meeting Hannah & hearing her message has been deeply in alignment with me. She’s been the one that inspired me as a mermaid to swim with whales, sharks & share my passion for ocean conservation as well! 🪸

Mahalo dear Hannah for taking a stand for the ocean as you do! It’s needed now more then ever. I’m grateful and honored to know you, thank you for trusting me with your brilliant life’s work! 🧜‍♀️♥️🧜‍♀️

Stay tuned for the interview, friends ⚡️

Introducing a new podcast interview with the lovely Britt Johnson interviewing me! 🐴

Check out this fascinating conversation between two horse women blending topics such as ocean conservation, astrology, current world events, our love of animals & nature & so much more!

Here’s Britt’s lovely write up:

Tara is an island-born Pisces woman, radiating joy and inspiration. Watching her glide through the ocean with her mermaid tail reveals her true Pisces essence in all its mystical beauty.

For the past 10 years, Tara’s life has been marked by pain, heartache, and the lingering uncertainty of whether her body could sustain her into the future.

Yet, after just a few minutes of speaking with her, you’d never guess that only a few years ago, she was confined to her bed and unable to walk.

I am deeply grateful to have crossed paths with Tara and discovered her profound love for Hawaii, horses, whales, sharks, and the miraculous power of healing the bodies through surrender and love.

I hope you enjoy this conversation that feels infused with light and joy!

Love + Magic, Britt Johnson

🎉 LAST CALL for the group cleanse starting on Saturday, January 25! 🎊

I’m offering a post holidays, get yourself back into balance, weight loss, eat healthy, group cleanse. 🌹

We did an inspiring zoom informational call this past week, if you want the link to learn about the program shoot me a PM with your email & I’ll send you all the info. 🐚

I know it’s easy to over indulge during the holidays with all the sweets, parties, family celebrations, travel & flurry of activities. I’m excited to share this opportunity with others to get back into balance again! 🎄

One year ago, I did a metabolic cleanse that helped to bring my body back into balance again after some very challenging times such as both of my parents passing & a painful breakup. I gained weight with the stress eating & wasn’t taking the best care of myself with the foods I was choosing to eat. I had gotten lazy with my self care.

After doing this cleanse, I LOST 15 LBS which I honestly thought was not possible for me! 🎉

This may not seem like such a big deal to some of you, but believe me, for a post menopausal woman, THIS IS A BIG DEAL ‼️ (Those of you in my situation will understand.) 😉

After cancer treatment threw me into menopause, I seriously never thought I would lose the extra weight I was carrying. I pretty much made peace with the reality that I was close to 15 pounds heavier then my normal weight, even though I didn’t want to! 🤷‍♀️

Two months after doing the cleanse, my mental state was better, my body had more energy and I had dropped 15 lbs I never thought I would lose! 🤠

It’s been almost one year after doing the cleanse. I believe it reset my habits so I’ve continued to eat well since then and subsequently, I’ve kept the weight off and feel fantabulous. I feel so much better in my body overall and am grateful for this shift! 💃

I now can swim much more effortlessly in the water with my 🧜‍♀️ tail and keep up with the whales I swim with! 🐋

If you would like more info about what I did to achieve this change & are interested in the group cleanse, please SEND ME A PM WITH YOUR EMAIL and I’m happy to share more! 🌹

May we all feel truly embodied, healthy and vibrant in our bodies in 2025. This is our birthright and what is truly optimal for full mind, body & spirit alignment. ❤️‍🔥

Love,

The mermaid cowgirl 🤠 ✨🧜‍♀️

In these times of great turbulence & change, I am finding my own inner barometer by going within & finding peace within myself, with the animals & the Earth, the ‘aina. 🐴

It feels necessary more than ever, to keep finding the quiet within to maintain the balance in these chaotic times. 🙏🏽

How do you find balance & maintain a sense of inner calm? 🪷

What is your intention for 2025? 🤔 Instead of having New Years Resolutions, I think that having an intention is more productive and easier to manifest. New year resolutions often fall to the wayside come February‼️

My intention is to ‘heal my heart’ ❤️‍🔥 There’s levels of healing that are needed to be done from all the loss in the last many years. I finally feel able to do the deep work to heal the trauma and am grateful for this! 🙌🏽

I would love to know what your intention is‼️

A letter to the new year 📝 As I step out of 2024, I’m filled with gratitude for another year of health, growth, and incredible life experiences. Looking ahead to 2025, I surrender to all the opportunities and lessons this year has to offer.

I’ve gotten to travel to new places🌎
I’ve swam with some of my favorite creatures (sharks included!)🦈
I released a new coloring book🎨📖

There is so much to be thankful for and I am holding onto this feeling as we head into the unfamiliarity of entering a new year. Here’s to finding new ways to share my passions, connect with others, and embrace the journey ahead. Cheers to a year of possibility and purpose! 🥂✨

12/26/2024

Wishing you & your ohana a lovely holiday from Comanche, the Wild Mustang & me. (And all the other furry beloveds) 🐴 🐶 🐱

Please be gentle with yourself & know you are so loved. ❤️‍🔥

The cowgirl mermaid 🤠 ✨🧜‍♀️

For those of you going through holiday grief, I just posted a video I made about it on my YouTube channel. Be gentle with yourselves. Holiday grief is real! Love y’all ❤️‍🔥 link in comments. 🎄🧜‍♀️🎄

12/22/2024

🎄 Holiday grief is real ❤️‍🔥

This post is for those of you who are struggling during the holiday season, missing your beloveds. This is a valid and common response to the holiday season when going through grief. The holidays accentuate the reality of loss‼️

The focus during the holiday is on family. If you have a fractured family or are experiencing loss, this brings that sensation of incongruence into exaggerated focus as you can see so clearly what society is putting the focus on during the holiday period.

My own version of holiday grief hit me the other day, missing my recently departed parents. This season it’s thankfully much less then how it was two years ago after their immediate loss, but it still runs through me. How can it not, I am human and having a living and beating heart that feels deeply? ♥️

Please know that thoughts of su***de are common during this time. If you are considering that, I urge you to remember that YOU ARE LOVED and how much you would be missed you if you left. Often we don’t realize how cherished we are, when caught in a haze of depression & loss. I was teetering on this edge two years ago, stunned from the tragic death of my beloved parents, so I speak from experience.

Last Christmas, I spent the morning bawling in San Francisco as I missed my father so much. 💦

This holiday season I have chosen to stay home on my beloved ‘aina Kaua’i to be with my precious animals and be in the house I just finished building, courtesy of my parents deaths. There is great joy, gratitude and blessings in my 🧜‍♀️ house & thankfully, I am through the gauntlet of grief to a place of celebration. Of course, I still miss my parents though. We were incredibly close. I am happy say I feel them often near me in the spirit realm.

My advice:

✨Do something that brings you joy. If that’s hard to do, find a place of neutral connection, something that can ease the pain a bit.

✨Reach out to someone. Grief can be isolating & you feel like you’re the only person in the world going through it. You are NOT! Sharing the experience can lesson these feelings of isolation.

✨Watch a movie, something that can take your mind off of the empty feeling you’re going through.

✨Get out in nature, connect with animals. Nature heals!

My heart goes out to you going through loss. First holidays without your beloveds can be especially painful. Most of all I want to let you know that I SEE YOU and understand. I love you! ❤️‍🔥 Please take the best care of yourself that you can during this time.

This photo was taken 6 years ago during the last holiday I spent with my parents. My mom was diagnosed with stage 4 peripheral D cell lymphoma the following summer. You can’t tell, but when this photo was taken, breast cancer was spreading through out my body. I was limping due to cancer in my hip bone (my hip bone would break 10 months after this photo was taken) and I was actually starting to be quite uncomfortable. That is another story though 😉

🐴 Happy national day of the horse! 🐎

Today it’s important to acknowledge how these blessed beasts help human kind advance. The horse has contributed significantly to the advancement of civilization in North America. Not only did the horse serve as vital transportation, but they cleared forests for farmland. They led the way westward and into battle, too. Horses diversified Native American hunting habits and defined the western cowboy.

In North America, the legendary horse is embedded in our culture and runs deep into the roots of our history. As the country grew, our indebtedness to the horse grew, too. While few people see the horse as much more than a recreational animal today, they still serve on working ranches. As a therapy animal, horses relieve the symptoms of PTSD, anxiety, and other disorders. Long past their age as a plow horse or part of the cavalry, they continue connecting to humans, and we continue to rely on them.

I truly believe that the horse is here to help evolve humanity on a spiritual level, as they are highly evolved beings!

What do you think? What is your relationship like with horses? How have they helped you?

I attribute a big part of my healing from stage 4 cancer to my beloved horses as I write about in my best selling book Grace, Grit & Gratitude: A Cancer Thriver’s Journey from Hospice to Full Recovery with the Healing Power of Horses. (Link in my bio) 📕

Btw, this is my famous horse Comanche! I wrote a book about him with artist Nica Draws Nature called ‘Comanche the Wild Mustang’. (Link in comments) He’s got a fascinating story about being taken out of the wild, in the Reno, Nevada area when he was a yearling, being a therapy horse and such a profound soul connection for me. I love him so! ❤️‍🔥

🧨 While you watch fireworks tonight, please remember that animals hearing is EXTREMELY SENSITIVE & the noise is acutely TERRIFYING to them! 🎇 It’s like being in a war zone to them & they don’t understand that it’s just one silly night of humans spending an exorbitant amount of money on patriotic folly. 🎆 Every 4th of July, I witness my dog shake next to me in fear & see my horses run around in complete fright with the disturbing noise. 🧨I don’t know how it is where you live, but in Hawaii it’s ABSOLUTELY INSANE how many fireworks are lit in neighborhoods. 😱Please be mindful.

NEW GRIEF PODCAST: Finding Courage in the Darkest Hour 🥀 This is a small clip from it sharing how it’s much harder to be on the side of being a caregiver rather then being the one being cared for. Would you agree if you’ve been on both sides of the experience? Despite how terrifying a situation might be and how hard we fight to believe something is happening, sometimes, the only thing that can save us is finding the courage to face one’s shadow in the darkest hour. I recently was honored to be interviewed by the lovely Emily Thiroux Threatt of Maui, Hawaii on her ‘Grief and Happiness Podcast’ Grief and Happiness Alliance Nonprofit Organization I truly enjoyed our rich and vibrant conversation!

🎉My book ‘Grace, Grit & Gratitude: A Cancer Thriver’s Journey from Hospice to Full Recovery with the Healing Power of Horses’ is two years old‼️🎉 📕 It’s hard to believe it’s been 2 years since I published my book baby! I worked extremely hard on it for a year and a half everyday, determined to publish it! My mom was declining fast with stage 4 cancer, so I had a lot of fire behind me to get it done. I had a strong feeling a terrible calamity was about to occur, which did! Right after publication, my beloved mother spiraled down then my dad then ended up tragically dying 4 months after her. My book was published just in time. 💔 My objective in sharing my story was that if I impacted one persons life, then I did my job. Since it’s publication, I have people share with me AROUND THE GLOBE that it’s inspired them to find a way through cancer & other difficult circumstances! I’m so glad I worked my tush off to share my story. You never know how many lives you will touch by standing in your truth & sharing your story! 🌞✨🌞 My book is also in audiobook form on Audible 🎧 That was another project that took hundreds of hours to complete! Thx to the wizardry of David DeVine it was finally completed this year! 🎉 Grace, Grit and Gratitude is one woman’s story of a profound bond with horses that carried her through nine years of pain, trauma, cancer and the challenges of loss. It is about finding the courage to face one’s shadow in the darkest hour.

📕 Book sighting at the awesome independent bookstore Harmony Books in Nevada City, CA‼️ It’s wonderful to visit my beloved old community of Nevada City/Grass Valley & find my book ‘Grace, Grit & Gratitude: A Cancer Thriver’s Journey from Hospice to Full Recovery with the Healing Power of Horses’ there! 🎉 This was a bookstore I visited quite frequently when I lived in this historic gold mining town. The owner has such fabulous taste & it’s got every book you could possible want tucked into its four walls. 📚 It’s incredibly relevant that my book is here, as a big portion of the book is set in the Nevada City area & the latter portion in Kaua’i, Hawaii. 🌺 The owner even ordered my latest book ‘Comanche the Wild Mustang’, a children’s picture book created with the talented artist Nica Ware , which is a book about wild horse conservation & a story of my beloved mustang Comanche! 🐴 I LOVED seeing my memoir tucked next to my teacher Linda Kohanov book & other books about the power of healing horses. It’s an incredible honor! 🐎 ✨🐎 Friends, PLEASE SUPPORT small, independent bookstores & buy local in general, when you can! It serves your community, by keeping money in your community and helps keep these important stores in business‼️ You vote for the future you want with every dollar you spend. Do you want a corporate owned world OR do you want your money to go to your local community⁉️ 🤔 Please bring your awareness to this important issue! Also, you can support my books by asking your local bookstores (even large ones like Barnes & Noble) to carry my book! As a self published author, it takes grass roots action to spread the word about my book. Māhalo for the support! 📕🙏🏽📕 Check out this wonderful bookstore when you’re in Nevada City! 📚 #taracoyote #nevadacityca #nevadacitycalifornia

A portion of the sale of each 🐎 t-shirt goes to the organization Wild Horse Protection Act. 🐴 Both designs are by the incredible Nica Draws Nature. 🧜‍♀️ All the shirts are created by the eco-company (made in the USA) BELLA+CANVAS & are screen printed by a local family here on Kaua’i, Hawaii. They are extremely soft, flattering & comfortable to wear! The 🧜‍♀️ shirt has my favorite saying ‘Choose Love Over Fear’ which has gotten me through the rough, crazy tumbles of life.
