Life has a way of testing our ability to adapt, a lesson poignantly illustrated by the recent loss of my mother at the age of 93. Her legacy of resilience in the face of constant change has profoundly shaped my outlook, especially as I navigate my own challenges. This episode is a deeply personal exploration of coping with life's unexpected turns and the art of maintaining composure through adversity. Drawing inspiration from Phil Haugen's personal development philosophies, I delve into the journey of bouncing back with grace and redefining discipline after missing a key horse show.Equine enthusiasts will connect with the second thread of this discussion, where I address a listener's concerns about managing a strong-willed horse. Echoing Phil's emphasis on the power of subtle cues, I talk about horse and human communication, advocating for a blend of gentle guidance and clear intent. Then, I move from the saddle to the soul, underscoring the value of personal growth, tranquility, and adapting our communication styles for a more harmonious partnership. Join me as I intertwine heartfelt storytelling with practical advice for both horse lovers and those looking to harness the flow of life's currents.
