Beth Peterson

Raised on a pony farm and having a horse most of her adult life, Beth Peterson began her life with horses and re-birthed her life with horses. She reconnected with them as part of her healing journey sparked by a Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia diagnosis in 1997.  Now, an equine assisted coach, life coach and swim coach for individuals and teams, she has woven her passion for horses and personal transformation into guiding others to overcome their fears, find their authentic voice and transfer their growing self-awareness into healthier relationships, teambuilding, leadership skills and direction for their lives.

It is through reconnecting with horses that has led Beth to her current work to help people lead more fulfilling lives both personally and professionally.  Committed to meeting her clients "right where they are", she brings a unique blend of patience and gentleness along with tenacity, humor and high standards to help them acheive their goals. Beth owns Ground Spring Coaching. 

Lynn Baskfield is a life coach and author who guides her clients through rites of passage with storytelling, writing, creative expression, readings, ritual, nature and very centrally, the wisdom of horses. A lifelong horsewoman, she partners with horses, sentient beings who attune to the subtle energies around them, to evoke insights and learning that her clients cannot get by thinking, reading or talking only.  It is Lynn's experience that when her clients connect with themselves through the horses, empowerment and creative solutions emerge quite naturally. She has faced cancer herself and has been instrumental in bringing horses to the Renewing Life program. Lynn owns SpiritDance Coaching.
