Sometimes the waiting place is where you need to be. Be quiet, be still, the answer will come. Rest for now, little soul. Soon it will be time to fly.

So many of us escape our pain through some sort of addiction. Personally I used work to fill in the loniless I felt and chose a service industry so I could help save others from the pain they were feeling because I didn't ever want people or animals to feel unwanted or undervalued the way I had in my life.
Recently I have learned how to care for myself and give to others without making myself suffer more. It hasn't been easy dealing with the guilt that I should be doing more and giving everything away for free so others have a chance to succeed while I continue to struggle. Finally after getting hurt over and over by those I tried to help I started to learn how to put up boundaries that allow me to do good and no longer be taken advantage of.
Has this been something you struggle with? Have you pushed yourself to the point of overwhelm and shut down? Do you want to learn how to find balance in your life? Do you want to find a way to improve the lives of others while also improving your own?

How many times have you given everything you had to make something work even when it never seemed to get better? I have done this so many times, burning myself out emotionally and physically. Trapping myself in situations that were killing my joy and dimming my light. Learning when to change course is an important skill to have in business, in relationships and in life. Would you like help figuring out when it is time to let go and when it is time to stay?

The two most empowering and most frustrating sentences I have heard were "Everything you have in your life right now is because of decisions you made" and "It's not the horse, it is you". Boy did I fight the sentiments in those sentences when I first heard them until I realized if I made decisions that led to the life I have I can make decisions that lead to the life I want. With horses if I didn't like the results I was getting I could change myself and get the results I wanted. How amazing that I had so much control in my life and future! I have the power to get everything I want in life by learning from past mistakes and making different decisions in the future. What changes would you make in your life? Do you want help making the life and relationships you want a reality?

With the close of the Olympics last week I got to see a lot of the highlights and loved seeing that overall what was being shared was the support of others and the joy being multiplied by celebrating other's success. I love the Olympics not for the medals but for the inspiring stories of perseverance through the toughest challenges and the moments that highlight the very best of the human spirit. Simone Biles and Jordan Chile's supporting eachother and celebrating Rebrca Andrade, Flavor Flav and Alexis Ohanian paying the rent for Veronica Fraley so she could focus on her event, Flavor Flav sponsoring the women's water polo team financially and in the stands, Snoop dog bringing his childlike enthusiasm, playfulness and exploration to the entire event, showing everyone how much joy and healing can come from connection and being authentically yourself. Plus so many more examples of the best parts of being human. What were your favorite, inspiring moments of the Olympics? What would the world be like if we all showed these traits everyday?

World peace starts with inner peace. If you want to change the world the first step is being honest with the things you can improve in yourself as well as taking care of yourself. You can't make a positive change from a negative place. You also can't give if you are depleted. Would you like help finding how you can improve your life and the world around you? Comment or pm if you want to make a change.

Accepting, forgiving and working with our shadows, negative emotions and parts of ourselves that we are not in love with is an important part of healing. When we are able to embrace and appreciate our whole selves we become more powerful and are able to achieve our big dreams.

Heroes is continuing our mission in a new way! In order to make the impact we envisioned we had to find a new way to reach more people. Over the last few years there have been many discussions, many challenges, many struggles and lots of possible solutions offered.
The first solution that we are implementing is offering an hybrid certification program for Equine and Canine assisted therapy. This program will be offered to people who want to learn how to run these programs. This program has been ready to run for awhile but we had no software to run it on. In Jan 2024 Colleen signed up for Entre and is in the process of formatting Equinosity into a educational platform. We will post the details of how to sign up once it is ready.
Later this year we will also have a hybrid therapeutic coaching program once we have a location suitable for retreats (more on that later!)
The second solution we will be implementing is to change our filing to an LLC. This will allow us more tax advantages so we can stretch the money coming in for programs farther. When running a non profit it seems like grants and donations are plentiful and easy to find. Unfortunately that is not the case and finding them takes valuable time away from the research and certation of new programs. We will still be offering the same life changing programs we have in the past as well as being able to spend more time developing new ways to help others.
We are looking forward to an exciting year of growth!!!

I would like to thank SmartPak for their generous donation to the oldest member of our teaching team. Luke will be 39 in April! Smart pak donated a joint supplement, Corta flex, to help Luke be more comfortable. Judging from his fun in the snowstorm a few weeks ago I think he approves!

Thank you to everyone who stopped by at our booth at the Equine Affaire yesterday. We loved talking to all of you and look forward to connecting again. After almost 10 years of having a booth at the EA we have decided it is time to find a new way to connect with festival goers. We will be applying to present again and offering new suggestions of ways for smaller companies to get their message out! We are so grateful to you all for your love, support and generosity over the years. Thank you for helping us help others.
