How you show up in the presence of a horse, is how you show up in life.

That’s what makes experiential learning with horses so powerful. Patterns of behaviour, limiting beliefs, and conditioning, surface quickly when you're around horses.

The invisible becomes visible.

If you’re seeking a deeper understanding of your behaviours, unconscious limitations, and want to explore new possibilities for growth, then stepping beyond traditional approaches can offer you something truly transformational.

What’s your IKIGAI?!

It’s a Japanese word that translates as Soul Purpose. It's about discovering what gives your life meaning.
Ikigai is found at the intersection of what you love, what you are good at, what the world needs, and what you can receive payment for.
My Ikigai came at me out of the blue, a part of me must have been yearning for something more deeply aligned with who I am, and bang, there it was on TV. I watched transfixed as a horse and a facilitator helped a client discover profound personal insights and realizations.
You know when you’ve collided with your Soul Purpose because it feels electric, congruent, and there’s no doubt about it. The pull is magnetic.
15 years on, this is the heart of my work – to help others discover their Ikigai, with the help of horses to gently lead you out of your comfort zone to step into your authentic self.

Horses don't act as a mirror, they have something to say. During a session with the horses, how they respond to you provides an opportunity for deep learning. We learn about who we are by being in relationship with others, and horses give non judgemental, instant feedback which gives you valuable insights into behaviours you might have been unaware of.

Horses teach us congruence - when your inner emotional state and your outer behaviour are aligned. And when those two finally match, something shifts — you step into your authentic power.

Horses don't speak English, they speak energy and body language. This is what makes them experts at revealing patterns of behaviour or limiting beliefs in people. They 'read' your non verbal communication and respond to it. Having a session with the horses can offer deep personal growth and the development of life skills.

It's incredibly calming sitting quietly beside a resting horse. A horse's heart is 10 times larger than ours which means they have a significantly larger and stronger electromagnetic field. When we come into their heart field, we feel it and it creates a beautiful space for healing and self-reflection.

Asking a horse to walk with you without a lead rope takes presence, congruence, clarity, and connection. It's a beautiful thing to experience. We don't teach horsemanship on our retreats, the horses teach you life skills. Imagine what would be possible when you become present, congruent, clear and connected?

"A transformation! I didn't expect to come away with a completely different approach to doing life!"
"The retreat is a life changer"
Our retreats offer life lessons from the horses, small group size, fun shared, and a beautiful mountain setting.

A beautiful place to meditate with the horses. This is how we started each day during our retreat last week. Becoming quiet, centred, and grounded.

The quiet power of the herd.

There’s something profound that happens when we step into the field with horses.

They mirror the parts of us we’ve forgotten, help us hear the wisdom beneath the noise, and gently show us how to lead from a place of inner alignment.

The mare—the female leader of the herd—leads not through dominance, but through presence.
Through intuition.
Through calm authority.

And this is one of the reasons I’m so passionate about equine-facilitated work.

Because it awakens this same energy within us.
A more compassionate, grounded, and kind way of living, leading, and relating to ourselves.

If you’re at a turning point…

If you’re ready to rediscover your fulfilling way of life…

Then this retreat was made for you.

There’s 1 space left for our next 5-day soul purpose retreat in Spain, beginning 11th May.
Will it be yours?

DM me to claim the final spot.
