Episode 63: Almost 98%❗of conflicts stem from miscommunication!

We have all heard that Communication is Key! 
But why?
Why does EVERYTHING seem to come down to communication?
Developing your communication skills can help all aspects of your life, from your professional life to social gatherings and everything in between. The ability to communicate information accurately, clearly, and as intended, is a vital life skill and should not be overlooked. And on top of all that, it is essential to understand what WE NEED out of communication.
Join us to learn more about the importance of communication and what you can do to become a better communicator!

Episode 62: Pressure and Release? Is there a release?

Most horse people know the concept of pressure and release for horses, but how does that apply to life skills for human? 
Well, lots stop and think for a moment about all the pressures we are under every day… financial pressure, social pressure, pressure to be a good parent, a good student, or a good partner? To get everything we need to get done in a day while still finding time to sleep - all within a 24-hour period! It’s exhausting!  
So what’s the release? To a horse, the release of pressure is the “Thank you” so what is our “Thank you” to ourselves each day? Just to release some pressure?
Are we being appropriate in our assertiveness towards ourselves and others?
Join us to learn some ways to release that pressure! And if you have ways that work for you, please share them for others!

Episode 61: Is Building Relationships really a Skill? 🤷‍♀️

We have heard of relationship building as a soft skill, but what is the most important relationship we need to build?
 The one within ourselves.
What does it take to build a healthy relationship with yourself and how does that affect our relationships with others?
If we don’t know ourselves, our likes, dislikes, reactions, triggers, and driving forces, it can be very hard to build lasting and healthy relationships with others.
Join us for some tips and methods to start building that relationship within. Because after all - that is the most important relationship we will ever build.

Episode 60: “Knowledge is Power”, but what does that really mean? 🤔

➡️ Is it going to school? 
➡️ Life skills? 
➡️ Specific knowledge on one topic? 
➡️ How does gaining knowledge pertain to our lives? 
Knowledge is the fuel that drives us.  Gaining knowledge is deemed the “most primary activity that prepares man for a long and successful life”. 
So how does this relate to horses? How can a horse help us to build the knowledge we need to be successful in our lives.  
Join us to find out how a little bit of knowledge can go a long way, and why it is an essential first step in Equine Assisted Learning!
