See how the beauty, power, freedom and spirit of the horse inpire you to profound learning and extraordinary results. Equine-Guided Coaching and Education Horses are intuitive beings who can show us in an instant when we are fooling ourselves and when we are on the right track. As herd animals who are tuned in to the slightest inconsistency in their environment, they mirror back to us inconsistent behaviors we may not have been aware of--behaviors that stop us from moving forward in life or from moving deeper into our own authentic spirit. When clients leave a session, they leave with insights they can  apply immediately to their lives. Equine-Guided Education (EGE) and Coaching  uses experiential activities involving horses to create metaphors that reflect real life. The approach is non-directive, allowing for opportunities to problem-solve and be creative. EGE is solution-oriented and acknowledges the power of choice. Most activities are done on the ground, making equine-guided coaching accessible to people of all experience levels. "Experiential,"  as it pertains to equine guided learning, means that you will be touching horses, breathing them in, seeing them, and moving with them on foot. You will be in the country, in nature, feeling the sun  on your face, walking on the earth, or smelling fresh hay in the barn. All your senses will be involved. This kind of learning bypasses a lot of the thinking that so often keeps us in a swirl. Instead, it goes straight to the heart of what you're passionate about and helps you see clearly what stops you from living a full out, full-color life. "I am amazed at what I discovered in such a bold and striking yet unbelieveably simple and loving way." --Nona Potter   Equine-Gudied Education and Coaching can be used in teamwork and leadership training, business development for entrepreneurs, individual enrichment and problem solving, re-storying (restoring) your life, and in pursuing creative projects.

A staff member who has been one of the most challenging and gruff…..was the very first to volunteer to help this morning with a very complex review task that I asked for assistance with.  It truly brought tears to my eyes, as it is a breathrough."                                        --Sandr Loerts, University Administrator

Who are my Clients? Maybe You! As a lifelong horsewoman, my two loves marry: life coaching and horses. As an equine guided coach, I work with executives, entrepreneurs, and midlife professionals who want to want to make a living--and have a life--doing what they love. Many already have their own business and are operating them successfully. Others are in transition, looking at what's next for them. Some are considering going into business for themselves or taking on a creative endeavor such as writing a book or developing themselves as an artist or performer.  I also work with teams and leaders who want to hold center in the midst of change, express themselves authentically, work effectively with others, and restore soul to the workplace.  When working with groups I work with colleague Ann Romberg under the name Wisdom Horse Coaching.   Along with developing and refining leadership presence, team building, and life skills, clients come away with a profound experience of their own magnificence. The cost is $300 per month. This includes 1 horse session and 2 half-hour phone coaching sessions.  Because change takes place over time, I ask for a minimum 3 month commitment. I do most of my Equine Guided work out of Hawk's Ridge Ranch in Hudson, WI,  but can work out of other locations for those of you who live out of the area and would like me to come work with you. In addition to serving my own clients, I invite professionals from the coaching, human development, organizational development and therapy fields to partner with me to make the extraordinary benefits of equine-guided coaching available to your clients.
