Pausing at the end of another twelve month cycle, on the edge of a new year, invites reflection in a way that feels natural and necessary. Looking back on my journey through 2025, both professionally and personally, I notice how sentimental this time of year always feels.
The past year has been full of moments. Moments of witnessing bravery, courage and vulnerability. Moments of sharing space with so many individuals who placed their trust in me, including the trust of my herd. Each experience carries its own meaning, and I hold deep gratitude for every person who allowed me to walk alongside them, even briefly. To be trusted with someone’s story, their presence, their nervous system, is not something I ever take lightly. It continues to feel like an honour.
This year also asked me to step outside my own comfort zone and access my own bravery and courage. Doing so opened doors I could not have imagined at the start of the year. Each opportunity came through trust, relationship and a willingness to say yes, even when it felt stretching.
Alongside these moments, there have also been heartaches, disappointments and unexpected challenges. I acknowledge those too, and consciously choose to release what no longer serves me and notice what has been gained through them. Wisdom, learning, growth and deeper understanding are always part of the journey, even when they arrive through difficult experiences.
I also want to acknowledge my gratitude to the land that continues to hold and nurture my clients, visitors, family and horses. Nature and my herd are not just part of this work, they are central to it. They shape the rhythm, the safety and the learning that unfolds here every day.
Closing this year with my herd beside me, I feel deeply grateful for the people, the lessons and this work.
🙏 ♥️
