Our horses are at the heart of everything we do 💛

Meet Surprise 🦄

A founding member of our herd, he once helped teach children to ride and played a key role in shaping Change Your Lead back in 2011. Now in his mid-40s, he enjoys a peaceful, well-earned retirement, something we promise every horse through lifelong care, including regular farrier and veterinary support. Your support in our current fundraising campaign helps us continue providing this level of care for horses like Surprise, who have given so much to others 🐴

Today, we honor all mothers.

The human mothers, the animal mothers.

The biological mothers, the adoptive mothers, the stepmothers, those who have stepped into the mother roles.

The content mothers, the grieving mothers, the struggling mothers, the healing mothers.

The mothers we hold in our memories and our hearts.

We see you.

The 5th annual Horses for Mental Health Campaign launches today! 🐴 ☀️

During Mental Health Awareness Month (May 1–31), we invite you to be part of a global movement supporting organizations that are bringing hope, healing, and connection through horses.

Mental health is one of the defining challenges of our time, with 1 in 8 people worldwide living with a mental health condition. But across the globe, something powerful is happening—programs are incorporating horses into mental health services, helping individuals from all walks of life find meaningful paths to healing.

Our equine partners’ health and happiness is at the heart of everything we do 💛

Both in and out of sessions, their wellbeing comes first. They spend their days in pastures and spacious paddocks with ongoing access to friends, forage, and freedom. We also give them plenty of time between sessions and workshops to rest, engage with the other herd members, and simply be horses 🐴

What a fabulous day at our Embodied Equestrians: Managing What Gets in the Way workshop with Caroline Vetter, PsyD! Thank you to all who came out to participate 💛

Wanted to post a short appreciation for the wonderful group this past Sunday that came out for the Embodied Equestrians clinic! Thank you to for hosting and helping with set up. I am truly grateful that my work, my community and my passion are all in the same space. 🐴🩷
