The purpose of this podcast is to talk about intuition. Do you know what that is? It is your gut instinct, street sense, inner GPS or insight. It is that inner knowing or sense of something that is true and yet there is no proof. There are so many ways it shows up. I want to normalize intuition and take it off the pedestal Everyone of us has it. Each episode we will meet an amazing guest who is just like you and me. We will be spotlighting them, their message and their tools they have to share to inspire...

I spoke with Miranda Winbush May 25, 2023 about dog training, Heart Math, intuition and more. We discovered how much being in the moment and accepting where we are is not only a place where intuition can come in but also a place where dogs can be their best selves as well. Bio Miranda is an Intuitive Life Coach for Humans and Animals. In her many years working as a dog behaviourist working with thousands of dog guardians desperate for someone to “fix” their dogs she has discovered the magic that is created in relationships when those people tune inwards and heal their end of the leash. Now, she is on a mission to spread the word and raise the consciousness level of dog guardians through self awareness. She is trained in Transformational Life Leadership Coaching as well as Reiki and Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction and is currently studying to become a HeartMath Certified Mentor. She is also a Certified Professional Dog trainer, Family Dog Mediator and Veterinary Technician. She offers individual and group coaching programs for dog lovers and pet pros that want to develop a heart based connection with their dogs, learn to tune inwards and follow their soul’s desires and welcome lasting peace into their lives. She believes that dogs can be the powerful catalyst for our personal awakening if we are open to the lessons that they are here to teach us. When we are present with them and watch how they mirror our experience of the world; we can not only heal our relationships with them but experience a greater sense of wellbeing. https://www.facebook.com/groups/heartcentredcanineclub https://mindfulcanine.ca/ Support the show

I spoke with Robert Goodland on May 15, 2023. It was a great to learn more about the path to Robert's current role as a coach and supporter of mental health for many who are dealing with trauma and how intuition played and plays a role in that. Bio Early in life, it was clear to Robert that he was created to serve. As a correctional officer, he assisted inmates nearing release to find employment in the community. He organized inmate work crews to help with volunteer organization projects such as neighborhood cleanups. He went on to become a volunteer firefighter and paramedic in two communities before making firefighting his full-time career. After so many years, all the pieces suddenly fell into place. All his personal trauma and the trauma he was exposed to in his career prepared him for this new purpose. One small step at a time, God had prepared him to support others as they claim their right to healing and wholeness. He needed to be taught that in life, you have choices. He was unaware that choices existed. He was blindly traveling down a path, believing that he had no control over the outcome. Little by little, Robert began to understand that these horrible things were not done to him but for him. He found hope and started to look at his life differently. The right people appeared at the right time. He realized he could use life's lessons to help others consumed by their fires. He could carry buckets of water to them.

I spoke to Christine Dickson on Mar 23, 2023. We talked about how our upbringing and patterns created then can actually get in the way of our intuition and how she has worked on building her intuition. Bio Christine Dickson is a Transformational Mentor, Clinical Hypnotherapist, and Equine Assisted Coach. She works with people to map out their vision and reframe their limiting belief systems to create radical shifts in their lives.

Her ideal client is a fellow traveler who has come to a crossroads and dares to pursue a more purposeful life.

I spoke with Kim Coleman on Mar 3, 2023 and Kim shared her way of staying out of judgement of people and situations using her intuition. She added a few layers to it and shared what it is for her. When we look at things differently things have the opportunity to shift. Bio What makes Kim unique is her clear and fun delivery of some of the most ‘out there’ information available today in the subject of consciousness. Her energy and her laughter is contagious and regardless of where she goes, she fills the room with her larger than large beyond energy. When working with clients, classes or during live calls she has this potent capacity to ‘nail it’, whatever the ‘it’ is in a style that will not only make you laugh, ‘it’ changes. One of the biggest comments that she hears is how folks never knew how easy, fast and gratifying it could be to be with some of their more difficult situations from the past to the present to create some-thing totally different now and in their future. Perceiving and knowing more, being and receiving more, showing up authentic and being different in the world has pretty much always been her way of, well, simply put… Kim… being Kim. And that is what is deliciously true for her! Being way too much for this reality and not fitting in are simply her norm. Are you ready for something totally different? “Life isn’t about going back to how things were when they were great, it is about creating forward motion from where we be in this moment!” Let us calibrate to the greatest version of ourselves, beyond the beyonds Walk with me shoulder to shoulder… together we rise! www.growingbeyond.com Support the show

We had recently connected when she wanted to learn more about what I do with Chronic Reversed Polarity and that is when I discovered also what she did and how aligned we were in how we saw animals and worked with them. We had a wonderful discussion about how intuition shows up through animals and in our lives and how doing what you love can truly be a blessing to the world in so many ways.

I spoke to Jill Hendershot Roth on Mar 15, 2023. We had an interesting conversation including the "Zone of Genius" that idea that comes from Emily Utter. We spoke about allowance, intuition, shame, healing and more. We went many places on how horses can inspire a better life as it was the horses you inspired us both about allowance. Bio Jill has been a student of the horse for over 25 years. Throughout this time, she has found herself repelled by the structure of dominance and hierarchy embedded in various horse “training” methods. She knew in her bones that there had to be a path with horses (and with life) that was founded in communication and cooperation. Jill teaches just such an approach through the FUNdamentals of Horsemanship and Equestrian Tai Chi. She also delights in the wisdom that horses offer to us; and teaches one-on-one lessons and online courses that share both. You can find out more at Bridlesandbreath.com and Youtube.com/@bridlesandbreath Another NOTE : We were talking about "Zone of Genius" that idea comes from Emily Utter and I didn't mention her by name during the interview if you want to tag that on in any way.

I spoke to Irena Zemljic with Senka Pazman translating for us on Feb 13, 2023. It was wonderful to learn how her son inspired her to learn about Theta healing travelling across the world from Croatia to Mexico. Also to hear how it has transformed their lives. Now she is doing sessions online with both Croatian and English speaking clients all over the world. Bio Irena Žemljić: Rođena sam 1973. u Zagrebu i obrazovala sam se u medicinskoj struci na Zdravstvenom veleučilištu. Nakon rastave braka ostajem sama s dvoje djece i osjećajem krivnje i manje vrijednosti. Tada počinje moj put u duhovnost i otvara mi se potpuno novi svijet. Nakon 10 godina istraživanja, 2017. dolazim do tehnike Thetahealing-a koja mi je promijenila život. Odlazim u Meksiko na edukaciju za učitelja jer mi je glavna misao vodilja bila kako naučiti druge da sami mogu mijenjati sebe, a s tim i svijet oko sebe. Pomaganjem odraslima i djeci te iskreni osjećaj suosjećanja i ljubavi čini me svjedokom mijenjanja vlastite stvarnosti u kojoj sam ja glavni kreator. Jer to je ono što Thetahealing radi: mijenjanjem vlastitih vjerovanja mijenjate svoj život i otvarate vrata osjećajima radosti, ljubavi i cjelovitosti. To je ono što želim sada priuštiti i drugima, da znate da niste sami i da se pomoć i znanje mogu dobiti, odluka je na vama J Moja poruka vama je da date priliku sebi, kao što sam si ju i ja dala. I was born in 1973 in the capital of Croatia, Zagreb, and I decided to pursue a degree in medical sciences. After the divorce, I ended up alone with 2 children which left me feeling guilty and worthless. Luckily, my big crisis led me on the path of spirituality and after 10 years of (re)searching, in 2017, I found the Theta-healing technique that changed my life and opened a whole new world for me. In the same year I went to Mexico to learn to become a Theta-healing practitioner and teacher. My goal was to teach others how they could change themselves and with it, their life, their circumstances and the world around them. This is also what Theta-healing essentially does - helps us to change our beliefs which will, in turn, impact and change our lives and open the door to joy, love and the feeling of wholesome. I managed to change my life to the point where I am feeling joyful and wholesome, and I would like to share and pass on this knowledge to other people who are ready to give themselves a chance to heal, the way I did.

I spoke with Gillian Larson on Jan 24, 2023 and we spoke about her adventures with her horses and how she works hard to discern fear versus intuition when she is on cross country trails for weeks and months at a time. Her awareness of her partners who travel with her is a whole other intuitive tool. It was interesting to see how important patterns were to staying in a good place. Bio Ever since she was a young child, Gillian Larson has been exploring the outdoors on horseback. After graduating from California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo with a B.S. in biology, Gillian became the youngest person to solo thru-ride the Pacific Crest Trail, covering the 2650 miles from Mexico to Canada in 2014, then again in 2016. She rode the Arizona Trail and the Colorado Trail in 2017, then completed another Mexico-to-Canada route on the Continental Divide Trail in 2018—the first person to thru-ride the PCT and the CDT with the same two horses. Most recently, Gillian tackled a third thru-ride of the PCT in 2022, this time with a rotating team of 4 horses and a mule, for a total of more than 13,500 back country miles. Also in 2022, Gillian received her M.A. in Agricultural Education at Cal Poly to become a better mentor and educator for aspiring back country riders. She provides private consultations and in-person workshops as well as online resources to facilitate sharing her knowledge and experience. Through her social media she has collaborated with brands and creators that inspire others to explore the outdoors and encourage women to embrace adventure and independence, and she also trains occasional client horses when time allows. Gillian cultivates an ethos of equestrian travel that is modern and progressive, blending a love of the outdoors with respect and care for her equine partners. Her goal is to create accessible content that demystifies the skills needed to explore the backcountry with equines. She focuses on educating others about the many challenges of wilderness equestrian travel while continuing to push the boundaries of long-distance riding and helping to modernize traditional packing techniques. She currently lives on a ranch in California’s central coast along with her expanding herd of seven horses and a mule.

I spoke with Margaret on Jan 23, 2023 and we had a wonderful conversation about being in the doing world versus being in the flow. We also spoke about following the fun and shifting into listening to ourselves versus the expectations or feedback from the outside world. It was just a conversation that kept on having one more piece of wisdom after the other. Bio Margaret first explored painting while in culinary school in 2000. At 40, she declared herself an Artist which meant that she could freely play in any medium as she deepened her practice of creating. Margaret’s practice is predominantly acrylic abstract and mixed media. However, in 2021 she began a self portrait series that she combined with poetry for her 100-day project. The poetry became a book, and she uses the images in her current mixed media work. Margaret has shown her work across the US and Canada.

I spoke to Laura Thomas on Feb 6, 2023. We had a wonderful discussion about intuition, animals and telepathy as well as how her intuition has shown her what she needs to do or where she will be among other things. She also shares her thoughts on working with people with their own intuition or understanding and how she sees that as she does her work and lives her life. Bio As a child, Laura always brought home injured, ill or stray animals; something she still does. Being with animals and helping them is a way of life for her. She has always shared a deep connection, kinship, and understanding with animals, domestic and wild, especially horses. In 2011, after a successful 25-year career as a professional development trainer and management consultant, she left the business world to spend more time with animals. She partnered with a friend to start a pet and farm-sitting business. Soon after, Reiki found her through a very special mare and changed her life forever! Because of another special mare soon after, she began her formal animal communication work. Not long after completing Reiki Master training with Odilia Forlenza (North Carolina Reiki Training Institute), Laura completed trained through Reiki/Animal Reiki Teacher level with Kathleen Prasad, Animal Reiki Source, and now practices and teaches her Let Animals Lead® method of Animal Reiki. Laura formally studied animal communication with Anita Curtis and then Thea Strom and Nancy Windheart. She enjoys helping humans and animals understand each other better, problem-solve, and enhance their relationships through animal communication. Currently, Laura is learning everything she can from Dr. Susan Fay, author of Sacred Spaces – Communion with the Horse through Science & Spirit about building strong energetic connections with horses. Through Dr. Fay’s methods of connecting with horses and truly “listening” to them, all other interactions become almost effortless. Laura has also begun her training in the Masterson Method of Integrated Equine Performance Bodywork®. Laura believes if we give animals a choice and honor their unique preferences in how they interact with us, whether it be in a healing session, training environment, or just life in general, the animals show up for us in ways we could never imagine. Everything becomes easier and the space is indeed sacred. Laura loves combining her background in training, her deep connection with animals, and her passion for energy work to create life-changing learning experiences for her students. She currently teaches animal communication, Reiki/Animal Reiki Levels I-III, and Energy Healing for Horses. Three horses, a donkey, a llama, one sheep, three dogs, three goats, eleven cats, and many chickens - most of whom are rescues, as well as various wild animals let Laura live on their farm in South Carolina.

I'd love to say that I've been doing this sort of work all my life but it would be untrue. I am in fact a late starter, as far as animal communication is concerned. I started on my spiritual path many years ago after going through a divorce and in that moment, my own inner guidance (that exists within all of us) helped me to look more deeply at myself and ask the million dollar question, why is there a repeated pattern that keeps showing up in my life? That was the start of a change in my life that was well overdue and has continued to help me evolve into the person I am today. Support the show

I spoke with Terry Kuebler Nov 16, 2022. We spoke about her career with animals in the tv and film industry as well as how that learning seeped into her family life. Life with animals became a drive for self awareness, learning about energy and intuition. It was wonderful to hear about how she followed her childhood dream to work with animals and all that came from that. Bio Growing up on a ranch and surrounded by horses since she was very young, Terry’s innate love of nature and the world around her instinctively drew her to a career as an animal trainer in the Hollywood film industry, spending over 30 years working closely with wild, exotic animals — elephants, large cats, wolves, and birds of prey, as well as the more domesticated dogs, cats…even insects. Today, Terry has united her two worlds, sharing insights and lessons learned from animals themselves. With an understanding of their powerful gifts, she is able to release new skills in awareness, coherence, deep listening, and the universal language of frequency as they emanate from these unexpected life coaches. With an advanced certification as a Life Coach from The Academy of Coaching Excellenc e, she holds additional training certifications in multiple energetic healing modalities: Reiki, Shamanic Journeys, Yuen Chinese Energy Medicine, and the Masterson’s Method . In her work, Terry seeks to support others in building their own awareness of the power of intention and the role that their thoughts and emotions play toward clear communication between both animals and humans…creating a new relationship of clarity, confidence, and mutual respect. www.terrykuebler.com Support the show

Going beyond the physical and into the energetic realm, she is particularly attuned to feeling the emotional frequencies, inherited energies and traumas of the horse’s past that are trapped in the body, thanks in part to her training in the use of The Body Code and The Emotion Code, modalities developed by Dr. Bradley Nelson. By coalescing the physical and energetic worlds for the highest good of the horse, the goal and ultimate result is the renovation of the horse’s body, mind and spirit. Support the show

Lynn Thomas is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, receiving her Master’s of Social Work from the University of Utah in 1995. She first developed a program integrating horses as a primary treatment component while serving as Executive Director of Aspen Ranch, a residential boarding school for troubled adolescents.

I spoke with Lynn Mann on Aug 8, 2022. It was delightful to hear her journey into her career as a writer and how just doing the next thing and not being afraid to go wherever that lead her brought so much into her life. Bio Lynn Mann has been drawn to horses since she was a small child. While always very confident with them whilst on the ground, she found riding them to be scary and exhilarating in equal measure, and often wondered why she was so addicted to horses when she found riding them such a challenging experience. Then, whilst fitting saddles at a rescue centre in 1999, she came across a blue-eyed, piebald mare, named Pie, with whom she instantly connected very deeply. She adopted the mare and spent the next eighteen years loving her, learning from her and changing markedly as a result. She learnt so much from Pie that she couldn’t contain it all – her first novel, The Horses Know, spilled out of her onto her laptop, and was published in 2016. She is now a fulltime author and as of August 2022, there are nine books in The Horses Know series. Support the show

It was wonderful to learn more about Isabel and the journey she has been on in the last few years. Bio Isabel is a Fire Team K-9's Dog trainer, Child and Youth Care worker, and a tour guide at Llama-Zing Adventures.

It was interesting to see what it has brought into her life and what she has brought to her work and her clients with her intuition, Bio Ainsley Beauchamp is a certified equine therapist working with horses and dogs. She takes a multidimensional approach using integrated therapies, with structural alignment, massage, acupressure, stretching and positional release, and craniosacral for hands on; she’s also a Reiki Master and PSYCH-K facilitator to help address the animal’s mental, emotional and spiritual bodies along with the physical. Prior to becoming an animal bodyworker, she was an owner/operator/head guide/dishwasher/general dogsbody in a horseback vacation company, taking experienced riders out for multi day rides through the local backcountry. Spending countless hours each day in the company of horses, she found her way to becoming one with the herd; each day she and her equine partners would head out into the mountains to do the days work together, with lots of laughter and heartfelt moments. Horses not only helped to fine tune her intuition, but being in the wilderness in the good company of good horses brought her to a place of peace and belonging. Back in the day, she’s also worked in human healthcare (both labour and delivery and geriatrics), real estate and other tourism/service jobs. Ainsley lives in small town Princeton, British Columbia with her long time best friend and husband, Damon; included in the family are three magical geriatric horses, an imperious cat named Mrs. Della Hedgewitch and an exceptionally bouncy puppy named Splash. Practicing energy work and healing for over twenty years now, Ainsley uses intuition to inform not only her bodywork sessions, but as a guiding force in life.

Kim shares some of her awareness about making decisions and how her intuition plays with that as well as how she sees it playing out in the choices she makes and how she lives her life. Bio What makes Kim unique is her clear and fun delivery of some of the most ‘out there’ information available today in the subject of consciousness. Her energy and her laughter is contagious and regardless of where she goes, she fills the room with her larger than large beyond energy. When working with clients, classes or during live calls she has this potent capacity to ‘nail it’, whatever the ‘it’ is in a style that will not only make you laugh, ‘it’ changes. One of the biggest comments that she hears is how folks never knew how easy, fast and gratifying it could be to be with some of their more difficult situations from the past to the present to create some-thing totally different now and in their future. Perceiving and knowing more, being and receiving more, showing up authentic and being different in the world has pretty much always been her way of, well, simply put… Kim… being Kim. And that is what is deliciously true for her! Being way too much for this reality and not fitting in are simply her norm.

The first horse I ever came across I believe were a pair of giant Clydesdales who were being driven in a park. I remember being allowed to ride both in the back of the cart and also the front, where I got to steer them. A year later I began horse riding at riding for the disabled... and I have been obsessed ever since. Support the show

I spoke with Tara Shannon on April 28, 2022. We spoke about the impact of generational trauma and mental health as well as how following her passion to draw has helped her on her own journey as well as helping others along the way. She has been inspired to put together two books of her characters Bear and Rabbit and is looking forward to bringing more of them to the word. Bio Tara Shannon's childhood nickname "Bear" took on a new identity 4 years ago when she sat down to draw, and write as a way to calm her growing anxiety. Her sketches turned into powerful and tender moments of conversation and reflection between the two illustrated characters. "Rabbit and Bear" were, and continue to be, Tara's outlet for years of thoughts, anxiety, depression, loss, grief, a cancer diagnosis... magic and wonder. At the start of the pandemic in March 2020, and to Tara's surprise, one of her sketches went viral on social media. That moment has since grown into an entire community of Rabbit & Bear readers and fans around the world. Support the show

I spoke with Paul Savoie on April 21, 2022. We covered a lot of topics from being true to ourselves to connection with nature and our souls as well as finding our passion and gifts along the way of this thing called life. Bio Paul Savoie has been working as a Human Resources professional for over 12 years. He has a Bachelor of Integrated Studies majoring in Business Administration/ Human Resources and a minor in Adult Education from the University of New Brunswick. He also holds a Health Coach Certification from the Institute of Integrative Nutrition. Growing up he would have given anything to just be "normal". That constant internal battle of not being good enough led to alot of emotional eating - this continued up to his early twenties. Things changed for him when a friend introduced him to Kickboxing. He fell in love with Kickboxing and experienced weight loss. He then embarked on fitness competitions which each show became the reason to "stay on track". Changing the physical body was easy but was not sustainable. Paul started to question more and more his purpose and that's when he came across the Health Coach Certification at the Institute of Integrative Nutrition. The program focused on how we are surrounded by energies. This was the beginning of self reflection and acknowledging the many "layers of protection" he created since he was a child. With a lot of self growth many blockages have been and continue to be replaced with Love. Most recently he has co-founded "TwoFeathers Healing" where he and his partner give intuition based energy healings. Today Paul supports his clients from a Mind Body Spirit approach. Support the show

I spoke with Karen Jones on April 12, 2022. We had an interesting talk about how intuition can connect us to many things including ourselves. Creating and maintaining that connection leads to so many things. It was interesting to see where that insight came from and how it has brought her further in her horse and owner coaching business. Bio Karen Jones is a lifelong equestrian, reaching back more than 60 years, as well as an international horsemanship clinician, teacher and coach, with students around the world. She mentors horse owners to build their foundational skills and learn to honestly communicate with their equine partners, creating safe and strong horse-human relationships.

I spoke with Jody Carrington on March 22, 2022. We had a wonderful conversation about all the ways that kids have shown up and impacted her life and her career. She also shared how supporting the education system and helping them has become a passion she enjoys sharing with educators and communities around the globe. Her authentic style and ability to cut to the truth while creating a safe space is a gift that she brings to her life and her work and inspires others along the way to do the same. Bio Dr. Jody Carrington is a renowned psychologist sought after for her expertise, energy and approach to helping people solve their most complex human-centred challenges. Jody focuses much of her work around reconnection – the key to healthy relationships and productive teams. A speaker, author, and leader of Carrington & Company, she uses all she has been taught in her twenty-year career as a psychologist to empower everyone she connects with. Jody has worked with kids, families, business leaders, first responders, teachers, farmers and has spoken in church basements and world-class stages; the message remains the same – our power lies in our ability to acknowledge each other first. Her approach is authentic, honest and often hilarious. She speaks passionately about resilience, mental health, leadership, burnout, grief and trauma – and how reconnection is the answer to so many of the root problems we face. Her wildly popular book, Kids These Days, was published in 2019 and has sold 150,000 copies worldwide. Jody’s message is as simple as it is complex: we are wired to do the hard things, but we were never meant to do any of this alone. With a Ph.D. in clinical psychology, work with major institutions and thriving clinical practice, she brings a depth of experience and insight that is unmatched in the industry. Jody lives in small-town Olds, Alberta, with her husband and three children (she had three kids in 2 years to test her own resilience) and leads the amazing team at Carrington & Company.

I spoke with Tyler on April 18, 2022 about his work as an osteopath and how becoming an osteopath came about. It was interesting to learn more about the world of osteopathy and how the body has its own intuition in a sense. It was great to also hear it put so well how being where you are is exactly where you should be and how that can bring the most peace of any other place on earth. Bio I grew up as the middle child of three boys and that naturally made all three of us fairly competitive. I come from a strong sporting background playing baseball, and hockey as well as coaching hockey, and baseball. This led me to studying the body and human movement both as an athlete and as someone who had injuries from sports. The more I continued to dive into the human body the more and more I realized how truly incredible it is; its ability to heal and to create is nothing short of astounding. I am currently 28 years old and am a practising osteopath in Amherst, Nova Scotia where I live.

I spoke with April Love on March 15, 2022. We had a lot to talk about on how she works with horses and people to get them out of pain and into a more aligned body and life. Her love of horses and her passion for learning how to help them feel better shines through and she even shares some stories on how her work has helped and how she has worked hard to bring it to the world. Bio Early on in her horse riding, care, and training career, April noticed that many people were just treating the symptoms that the horses were experiencing, and not solving the root of their issues. For instance, a spasm in the horse’s hind end will cause their front end to have to work harder, and this overcompensation causes a rippling effect throughout the body, which leads to a myriad of physical and behavioral issues. Most of all, she noticed that many horses labeled “problem horses” were really just in some kind of pain or discomfort, and in each of their hearts, they really just wanted a partner who was willing to listen. After spending tens of thousands of dollars taking every horse care course she could find, April Love took her accumulated knowledge and blended it with her own unique insight in order to synthesize the Equine Musculoskeletal Unwinding, CranioSacral Unwinding & Advanced Applied Kinesiology, and Equine Cranial Decompression methodologies. These methods all offer a systematic approach to healing the horse’s body that blends concepts of massage, reiki, bio-energy, and intuitive listening. She begins in conversation with the horse, asks them what they need, and compassionately waits for the answer. Afterward, she applies whatever techniques are most fitting at that time. The goal is to assist the horse’s body in returning to a balanced and aligned state so that it can heal itself and function optimally, while also providing mental and emotional support.

I spoke with Mary Marczak on Feb 9, 2022. She had lots of insights into how sometimes just 'doing it' can bring you places you never dreamt. She brought an awareness as well into aspects of her work that some people may have always wondered about given how difficult it can be for those going through the process. Being able to receive and act on intuition has had a huge impact on her world both in her work and in her own life. It was wonderful to learn more during our conversation. Bio My name is Mary Marczak. I wanted to become a veterinarian ever since I can remember. When I was in veterinary school at Texas A&M, I loved the thrill of never knowing what kind of species I’d be called upon to work on next; and so, I did not pursue a specialty after graduation, but remained in general practice of medicine and surgery. I graduated in 1994. I have practiced mixed animal medicine and surgery the past 27+ years. Currently I live and practice in La Grange, Texas. My experiences as a veterinarian of multiple species (and their owners J) has given me such enlightenment into the art of appreciating and understanding behavior. Once I began to see how forces of our energy can alter our interactions, I then was able to connect with my patients, clients, pets and family on a whole new level. It is increasingly clear to me that being aware of individuals’ needs through verbal and nonverbal communication is monumental in my horse training that I have turned my attention to recently. I only hope I can continue to keep my heart and mind open to change, and perhaps influence others to do the same Support the show

He describes many situations in his life that he describes as miracles and shares how connection with nature can bring such joy. **warning there are some stories that may trigger a person around violence but they all have a good ending** Bio MONTY ROBERTS first gained widespread fame with the release of his New York Times Best Selling book, The Man Who Listens To Horses; a chronicle of his life and development of his non-violent horse training methods called Join-Up®. Monty grew up on a working horse farm as a firsthand witness to traditional, often violent methods of horse training and breaking the spirit with an abusive hand. Rejecting that, he went on to win eleven world’s championships in the show ring.

I spoke with Pam Stilwell-Boon on Jan 11, 2022. We were able to speak about the many ways that she works with intuition and also how it shows up in her life. We also talked about ways the ways she works to help keep her balanced in her life with all the intuition and energy she works with in her work and in her life. Bio Pam Stillwel-Boon really is currently an Osteopath and Registered Massage Therapist in Shediac, New Brunswick. She has an honours degree in Psychology and Kinesiology from Université de Moncton as well as a Masters in Kinesiology from Dalhousie University. She also graduated from the Registered Massage Therapy program from the Canadian College of Massage and Hydrotherapy and obtained my doctorate in Osteopathy from Canadian College of Osteopathy. Her path hasn’t always been an easy one, but it was clear from an early age that health, wellness and fitness would be part of her lifelong journey. As a child, I was diagnosed with asthma and although she loved taking part in sports, she battled with weight issues and overeating for years, so unfortunately, she wasn’t thriving in many physical activities. Once she graduated from high school, she turned over a new leaf; She wanted to be healthy, feel good and actually learn to love myself. Her journey to health started off with following workout videos in the basement, gradually going to the gym, moving to Toronto to study massage therapy, training for her first fitness competition, taking part in many competitions throughout Canada and the United States, becoming a certified fitness instructor as well as a personal trainer. The fitness world became her life. However, this came at a cost. She became obsessed with being skinny. I exercised too much, took supplements to lose weight, became bulimic and started to become a very unhappy and judgmental person. That’s when she hit rock bottom and realized; now’s the time to wake up and find balance in her life. An unexpected job opportunity as a Pharmaceutical Representative brought her back home from Toronto and although she now had a busy day job, she kept practicing massage therapy in the evenings, teaching numerous classes at the gym and eventually also taking on the role as the Group Exercise Manager at Goodlife Fitness. When she discovered the world of Osteopathy one faithful day, She knew this would be the next step in her journey. Over the next 5 years, she continued to work as a rep while studying Osteopathy on the side. One day, to the surprise of her family and her employer, she finally took the leap and quit her job; following what her intuition had been guiding her to do for years. She put my trust in the universe and started working full time as a Massage Therapist and Osteopath in her clinic; a decision that has been nothing but rewarding. When you do what you love, when you follow your intuition, when you put your energy into helping people; that’s when you start to thrive as a person

I spoke with Iris Scott on Jan 14, 2022. It was lovely to speak with another nature lover who gets the fact that everything and everyone is connected. The natural world has an advocate in Iris Scott. Her story of becoming the artist she is today is filled with just doing the next thing and following her passion. She shares some key aspects of her story and how not always doing what everyone else is doing is where you find the magic. Bio Iris Scott is an American contemporary painter working in the Instinctualist style. Instinctualism is 40,000 years old, making it the oldest school of human mark-making, with thematics founded in animal imagery and mystical experience. Iris grew up in Maple Valley, Washington on what she describes as a “one-family hippie commune”. Iris and her sister spent evenings listening to their mother, a writer, tell epic tales about the anthropomorphized lives of the family’s pet parrots, lizards, cats, goats, and rabbits—with wild roaming coyotes appearing in the stories as special guest stars. As a result of this deep connection with animals during her upbringing, the agon of Iris’s work is closing the distance between humans and nature. After studying in Florence, in the same centuries-old halls where Raphael, Michelangelo, and Da Vinci worked, Iris moved to a tiny apartment overlooking a rainforest outside of Kaohsiung, Taiwan; from there she launched her career. Her artistic journey took her from Taiwan, to Seattle, and then to Brooklyn, New York, where she lived and worked in a loft space of a former mattress factory. During the six-year-long NYC period, Iris began a relationship with the cutting-edge Filo Sofi Arts Gallery . Her 2019 solo show, Ritual in Pairing, held in Chelsea, was attended by Jerry Saltz and received coverage from outlets like New York Magazine, Smithsonian Magazine, and Artnet. On the West coast, Iris is represented by Adelman Contemporary. The successes of New York (and living on “the nosiest street in America”) led Iris, in 2020, to seek isolation and solitude in New Mexico, overlooking Ghost Ranch, Georgia O’Keeffe’s old stomping grounds. She has built a house and studio adjacent to national wilderness and currently lives within walking distance of caves, dinosaur bones, native ruins, and petroglyphs. Here, Iris is connecting to the Instinctualist impulses of the earliest human artists. In Spring 2022, Iris will unveil a new body of work, and a new technique at Filo Sofi Arts . The fresh collection shall depict the desert otherworld of Northern New Mexico—the stark landscape, occupied by resilient plants that twist and claw their way around the rocks, adamant on survival. Her life’s goal is to transcend Industrialism’s cultish trend of separation from nature, and depict a new mythos of the oldest truth: we are

I spoke to Greg Dial on Nov 28, 2021. We had connected several times before and just had the same way of looking at how the world goes around. Greg talks about how using a gentle but clear approach with horses can bring about the best relationships and isn't that the case with all relationships. We talk about how intuition plays into reading the horse and how listening with all our senses can enhance how we go through life. Bio “Precision partnership” is the goal every time Greg Dial trains a horse or coaches a rider. With a background in reining, he knows that the foundation for a reining horse also encourages a horse in any discipline to perform at a higher level. In past years, Greg showed Quarter Horses, Paints, and Arabians successfully in reining, cowhorse, versatility, western pleasure, trail, and halter. Thirty-five years ago, Greg started “The Gentle Rein” in Wimberley, Texas after long experience in ranchwork, training in show barns, and as an independent trainer. Showing convinced Greg that there needed to be a way that was better for the horses, the riders, and the industry as a whole. He uses a teaching style that is non-confrontational, seeks to develop partnership and leadership, and emphasizes reward and mental rest, rather than harsh discipline. In 2001, Greg and The Gentle Rein moved to Lampasas, Texas, and opened facilities at Little Bear Ranch. In 2018, he pulled up stakes and moved to Blanco, Texas. These days, he promotes all-around partners for trail, ranch, and pleasure riding.

Nicole even shares how waiting to follow through on intuition isn't necessarily a bad thing either as we gain experience and knowledge to add to the plan. Bio I have been taking care of other peoples horses for almost 20 years. After seeing similar accidents happen in all types of facilities I decided to teach safety on the ground. My mission was to help prevent common accidents and injuries by teaching the best practices that have helped me keep my clients horses healthy and safe. Equine First-Aid happens after an accident or during an illness while waiting for a vet. Many owners feel helpless during this time. I added this course because I saw the need for owners and riders to be more prepared to help their horses in an emergency. Being prepared led to Equine disaster planning that I now also offer. Itsa course for stable owners and their clients to learn, practice and prepare for evacuation in a barn fire or natural disaster. These courses attract responsible horse lovers who want the best for their animals like I do. I love teaching all three subjects.

These medicines are created in her kitchen with plants from her garden and from her foraging adventures. Combining these loves with her intuition has been amazing. She lights up just talking about it. Laura Hunter is a connector, advocator, communicator and educator. She loves nature and has always had roots in doing what she can to raise awareness of Mother Nature's need. She is a Diaconal Minister in the United Church and is now the director of Open Sky Cooperative Open Sky Co-op Catriona MacDonald has practiced as a cranial osteopath, healer and animal communicator for 30 years. Helping animals through osteopathy and healing became her passion in 1991. Through encountering a disconnection between humans and the animals in her practice, and the trauma that resulted, she began to uncover and develop a practical methodology for awakening her own kinship with life in its many forms. Sharing these practices with others is the work of her heart and this endeavor is now her entire focus. Catriona guides courses both in animal communication skills, along with nature based courses, awakening our innate ability to sense the lives of others, to know the beauty of all the More-than-Humans that we share this beautiful Earth with and to remember ourselves as “one of the myriad wild ones of this world”.

I spoke with Shea Stewart on June 25, 2021. She shared about how intuition shows up in her work as an equine cranial sacral practitioner and she also shared how a tragedy brought intuition in her body to her awareness starting her intuitive path. Bio Horses have been a part of my life for the majority of my life. I founded Stewart Ranch in 1998 in the beautiful Santa Cruz Mnts, near Santa Cruz, CA. I focused on creating a holistic environment, and incorporating educational seminars and clinics. I found myself with a ranch that had huge potential, so I spent the first year renovating it and creating a home for me and a peaceful environment for horses. Every 6-12 months or so, I would bring in a professional to teach a clinic on some aspect of horse well-being. And I also taught clinics, trained horses from starting young horses under saddle, to re-educating the most difficult horses, to having other horse trainers bring me their horses to help them get to a better spot. I had a strong client base with boarders who were in some kind of lesson or training program, and every year I spent 6 weeks with Harry Whitney to enhance my own skills. Usually bringing the most challenging horses I had in training, or a young horse to start under saddle. Around 2007, I found myself with a full load of training horses with extreme and dangerous issues. It was around that time that I started exploring equine craniosacral therapy. I was familiar with craniosacral therapy because I had been receiving it since the late 80's so I knew how powerful it was. As I completed each workshop, I incorporated what I learned with the horses in training so I could practice my feel. I found that I had a knack for this work, and it resonated with me on a deep level. What kept me intrigued was the change I was seeing in this group of training horses that I had at the time. There was a settledness that the horses had, a lightness in their riding and just an ease to their expression. I started getting interest from other clients and friends throughout CA once they heard about this work I was doing from my postings on facebook and seeing results of horses they knew that I had in a training program. So, about a year after my first craniosacral course, I branched out and began working on horses outside of my ranch. I still felt like I had barely scratched the surface of this therapy, but the feed back from clients was remarkable to me, and honestly that feed back is what kept me motivated to offer this service as well as lessons and training. In 2011, I decided to relocate to Texas. I immediately found a human craniosacral practitioner who taught classes in biodynamic craniosacral. I enrolled in every level completing up to the advanced levels. This training was life changing in my equine practice. I am able to practice with more precision, get deeper changes, and have a clear understanding of what is happening during a session with a horse that

I spoke with Donna on June 21, 2021. It was great to speak with someone who has walked a similar path of corporate work and transitioning into a new role embracing her intuition and following the bread crumbs so to speak. Hearing about her own journey and the work she does now made me excited for the women who cross her path and learn to embrace their strengths and follow their own lead. Bio Donna Hall is a life coach and intuitive energy healer. She helps women to get anything they want by healing old wounds, such as a difficult childhood and transforming their most important relationships. At a young age, Donna was able to read people's emotions but didn’t give it much thought. She felt everyone could do the same. When she started working in the corporate world, her intuition gave her insights but she had difficulty explaining her sense of knowing, and hid it if she could not align it to logic. Today, she has learned to embrace her intuition and uses it to help her clients gain a deeper understanding of who they are through her transformational intuitive Release Your Energy scans. When she is not busy, she can be found having fun with her family and two dogs. To contact Donna, you can email her at donna@donnahallcoach.com or check out her website at www.donnahallcoach.com .

I spoke with Richard Rowland on June 11, 2021. It was an insightful conversation about how intuition can support us in our life at one level and then due to profound life circumstances shift into another level that shines and shows up in ways we couldn't have imagined previously. Bio Richard is a two tour veteran of the Vietnam War, a 28 year veteran of law enforcement, retiring from the KY State Police as a sergeant, and a 20+ year owner/operator of an equine facility in Kentucky. He is retired from all endeavors except for writing. He spends his time split between Kentucky and Maine, where he and his wife Jennifer care for her elderly parents, a horse, dog and three cats. He is thirteen years into a cancer diagnosis that came with a three year expiration date. Animals were the catalyst for change and for successfully navigating cancer.

I spoke with Amber Lydic on April 19, 2021. It was great to speak to Amber who has been on her own journey to healing to learn and support herself and in turn support others as she goes for the ride. Bio For over 20 years, my personal passion and purpose have been to support those that are on a journey to develop a deep and connected relationship with their horse. While classes, techniques and learning tools are critical for developing this relationship, the true nature of deep bonding comes from within. Understanding yourself gives a freedom to growing a deepening relationship with your horse. In 2004, after graduating from the John and Josh Lyons Certification program, I began developing a professional training program. My interest focused on assisting performance horses with behavioral issues. Under a multitude of talented trainers, I had the opportunity to learn a variety of disciplines. During this time, I was chosen to be the lead trainer for the (former) San Jose Police mounted unit. I continued my education and became certified in Equine Assisted Growth and Learning Association (EAGALA). Side-by-side with a talented psychologist, we worked with troubled teens and foster children, and managed corporate team building courses. While I was developing my horse skills through extended education, work and practice, I felt there was more I could do to access my own internal resources. Being around horses for so many years, it was clear to me that a person’s energy had an immediate effect on their horse. My own personal experience of anxiety and depression became my learning ground. From this experience, I gained a deeper understanding of the role personal healing plays in developing a rich and satisfying relationship with a horse. Taking this time to connect with myself provided the missing piece to my development of a professional horse and rider training program. It was through this personal journey that I became a Certified Personal Coach and a ThetaHealing Practitioner. This deeper knowledge allowed me to build a program that incorporates guided meditation and mindfulness activities, with the support of traditional training and performance exercises. The combined knowledge created a series of building blocks that I used in developing my personal horse and rider program. My intention is to be present and allow for my students and their horses to be seen, heard and understood. Performance and behavioral issues can be directly attributed to tension between the horse and the rider. The challenge is how to create a safe environment that allows students to access their deepest fears and develop a new way for interacting with their animal. My belief is that every person has the ability to learn, grow and flourish. My role is to provide an environment and understanding that will allow the student to begin to heal themselves, while developing a deeper connection with their horse. Teaching

I spoke with Pat Cleveland on May 4, 2021. We had an interesting conversation about how intuition and life can lead us places and bring us to a knowing and then an understanding and also how it can be used for the simple things in life as well as more intense or important aspects of life. Bio No school, course, or book could shape Pat Cleveland’s intuitive horse training adventure. Self trust, trial and error, documentation, and bind challenges finally produced consistent results which support international performance horses, breeding farms, Olympic teams and people who simply want answers and connection with their horse. Pat Cleveland is an Equine Intuitive Horse Trainer who researched the links to genetic symmetry, problem horses and balance. Her intuitive translations tap into equine epigenetic which restores peace and balance to horses. The side effects go beyond the explanations of science, leading to a diverse life of learning. Educated in Classical Horsemanship, riding, training and instruction, Hippology, Equine and Human Bio-mechanics, Coaching Psychology with spin offs in music theory and art. Apprenticing in equine manipulation, certifications from Cornell University in Equine First Aide and a working relationship with Dr. Gerald Wessner of the Holistic Vet Clinic provided confidence to publicly present the energetic qualities we have. Pat earned 12 certifications in energy based modalities and pioneered integrated therapist before it was recognized. She redirected her focus when therapeutic resource failed to provide permanent results. Her Veterinary Intuitive reputation grew world wide after a series of Near Death Experienced revealed the body is an interactive Matrix of energy and information designed to maintain balance. Pat began unwinding crooked horses after studied basics of Unified Field Theory with the Resonant Science Foundation justified her downloaded visions. The human connection can trigger the genetic sequence to restore balance at any point in the life of a horse. Pat shocked the horse world, proving her empathic reach could restore a fractured foal 900 miles a way. The world has watched Pat work with mustangs, wrecks, pets and winners. The results consistently shift the thinking of anyone experiencing her work. The question is: Is it time to expand our thoughts and follow our instincts about what horses really need from us?

I received the inspiration to gather some 'crows in the trees' so to speak. I was so excited when Catriona MacDonald, Kathy Price, Dr Susan Fay and Dianna Stewart joined me one Sunday to discuss connection and intuition. Bio Many years of studying and practicing different energetic modalities, as well as seeking out information on energy, psychic phenomena, quantum physics, consciousness and more, led Kathy to realizing that everything is energy and through that energy everything is connected.

I spoke with Josh Nichol on April 1, 2021. It was great to get a better understanding on his view of the horse and nature and how both of them can really inspire us to be better people. Bio Josh lives in Athabasca, Alberta, Canada with his wife Cindy, and three children: Taylor, Jackson, and Christopher. As a family-focused individual, he takes great pride in spending as much time with those in his life as possible, and helping his children learn the valuable lessons passed on to him by his mentors. Even from his younger years, it was readily apparent to those around him that Josh Nichol had a remarkable gift when it came to interacting with horses. Fortunate enough to have parents that noticed his affinity for the equine early on, much of Josh’s life has been spent developing his understanding and knowledge of horsemanship. Under the guidance of world-class mentors, Josh quickly learned his life’s calling: continually seeking and developing better methods of creating long-lasting relationships with one of God’s most fascinating and beautiful creatures. Driven by a passion for connecting with, and understanding the needs of horses, Josh has created a transformative approach to horsemanship: Relational Horsemanship. The Method Relational Horsemanship is built on a foundation of forming a deep connection with our horses by striving to understand their needs and empowering them to perform at peak capacity rather than dominating them. Refined over two decades of experience working with clients from across Canada and across multiple disciplines, Josh’s method has rapidly gained an international following among horse owners and equine professionals alike. Josh’s students now span the globe, with a wide variety of services and training materials ensuring that his Relational Horsemanship method is easily accessible. What began as an interest in spreading a deeper understanding of these incredible creatures has evolved into a rich fountain of knowledge for everyone, from recreational enthusiasts all the way up to Olympic competitors. As a world-renowned and highly sought-after expert, Josh has been featured in events as diverse as “The Horse” Exhibition at the Nevada Museum of Art in Reno, and The Mane Event in Red Deer, AB. As a regular published contributor, Josh’s articles have appeared in several magazines including EQUUS, Horse Canada, and Western Horse Review.

She has so many great things to share about her own journey and also how she sees the world and her part in moving people and passions forward. Bio Melissa Carey is a dedicated believer of the power of intuition, the interconnection of all living and nonliving things and an awareness of how to attune oneself to this energy.

Aletha brings her own stories and insights about life and intuition in this episode and how when we have to do things to make things work we are still supported in the end. Aletha Williams is a native of Jamaica. Her parents decided that the entire family should relocate to the United States for better opportunities. They did not know that all of their certifications were null and void. Watching her family struggle to pay bills, Aletha used her education opportunities to enter the United States Naval Academy. She graduated from the Naval Academy in 1994 with a Bachelor of Science (BS) in English and a minor in French. She received her commission as an officer and became one of the first waves of women to serve on combat ships. In 2003, Aletha’s career was placed on hold when she was diagnosed with cancer. At that time, the Navy did not have a sabbatical protocol, and thus, her actions to go to shore duty was a career stopper. Even more stressful, Aletha decided to risk her cancer getting worse when she decided to have her second and last child. She thanks God every day that she survived and has been cancer free for seventeen years. Aletha retired from the Navy after 20 years of service with two master’s degrees, Information Systems Operations (ISO) and a Master of Science in System Engineering (MSSE). Currently, Aletha is pursuing her Ph.D. in Mind and Body Medicine with a subspecialty in Integrative Wellness Coaching (IWC). She is a partner in a skincare line called Love and Care Natural Aromatherapy. She also recently opened her Life Coaching business as a Spiritual & Transformational Life Coach called Inner Starr Compass Healing. Her services include life coaching, reiki, soul art, and eventually, equine-assisted therapy. Aletha enjoys painting, journaling, and traveling.

I spoke to Dina on Jan 23, 2021 and that surely was a divinely lead nudge that brought me to her. I had followed a story about a horse that she has been posting on social media and I just had to meet her. I asked and she said yes! The depth of awareness and life experience I think we just scratched the surface. We can sense community when we find people and I sensed that right away. She shares about her own experiences when panic attacks that seemed to disappear as she found herself more centered in her energetic awareness and also how building a community around her helped embrace who she was. Bio I am a SoCal native and grew up with the infinite expanse of ocean, the thrill of dolphins hugging the coastline, while finding my grounding in the very-old-soul oaks of my community. From once I could remember, I have known a deep primitive connection with animals, most especially horses, and even with humans, although that has been a far-more bumpy ride that I am still learning to navigate, healthfully trust. My path, in whatever twisty-turns traveled, there was a horse. I never had lessons or friends with horses or any sort of barn-life. I hung out with my horse all the possible hours of the day and when I did not have my own horse, I showed up wherever they were, freely offering myself in whatever bartering-way just to be in their presence. Today, in terms of equines, I live with my two OTTB geldings. One is an incredibly empathic sensitive younger soul and reminds me of myself before I understood and accepted my empathic-intuitiveness. My horse before these two, lived to 34 and wow - he was an old old wise solid soul, older than the oaks. Goodness he kept me alive the 25 years we shared lives. During that time, I was in college. Yes, for 25-plus years! I love learning. I am one of those who started college at 17, right out of High School and just kept going. I started out as a professional photographer while making my way through a BA, BSN, MSN, and working towards my Doctorate in Clinical Psychology with a double major in PreMed studies and I now feel that I am exactly where I need to be in medicine, as a Nurse Practitioner working in Neurosurgery and if you know about medicine, you know there is endless learning. I am my happiest-thriving-glowing self when I am learning. After sharing the aforementioned layers to my now-journey, the most magnificent of untouchable and indescribable "otherness" is that of having my son. He is 16 and an intuit, an empath, like me. He doesn't know it yet, but he will, and I am so excited for his discovery. Honoring the most important roots of my soul... the little girl that survived incredible odds long enough to allow me to come through to the present. Support the show

I spoke with Kathy Price on Nov 2, 2020. We spoke about how her horses brought her everything she is today in her work. Shifting from a science minded person into an understanding that there is so much more to the world than what can be proven. Kathy shared stories of her own journey as well as stories of some of her clients to give us an understanding of how intuition now shows up in her life. Bio Kathy comes from a scientific background gaining a BSc (Hons) degree in Zoology in 1982. She happily admits this background gives her a healthy sceptical outlook as well as the ability to apply a scientific perspective to all of her work and discoveries. Despite coming from a totally un-horsey background, from a very young age horses have been a passion in her life. She is so grateful at how their presence has not only connected her to wonderful people, but has also led her to profound insights into the world of energy and connection. In 2002 Kathy attended a horsemanship clinic which she describes as a spiritual experience that turned her mind inside out. It was her experiences at this clinic that led her directly into the world of energy and connection. Many years of studying and practising different energetic modalities, as well as seeking out information on energy, psychic phenomena, quantum physics, consciousness and more, led Kathy to realising that everything is energy and through that energy everything is connected. Kathy’s work is called Point of Balance where being in balance equates to health. During a session she acts as a facilitator or catalyst to help the person or animal she is working with move back into balance at all levels - physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. Her work is carried out in person and at distance and she has clients all over the world from the USA to Australia and New Zealand. The family farm set in a stunning valley in the hills of mid-Wales has been Kathy’s home for over 30 years. It is from here with gratitude and joy that she works with clients and continues her exploration into connection, energy and consciousness.

I spoke to Ian Cavanagh Nov 17, 2020. We had so many places we could go with this podcast but as usual it was carried where it should be with some insights about the power of one question. Who are you? And also how discerning between the emotional gut and the instinctual gut is so important. Ian shares how important it is to be open to be vulnerable and just ask and answer questions when you meet people and how that can lead to so many coincidences and serendipities in our lives. Paying attention to what comes up in conversations even when we use hindsight can really enrich our lives. Bio Ian retired from his professional career in 2016 as a Partner with EY based in Halifax, Nova Scotia where he led the IT Advisory Practice in Atlantic Canada after EY’s acquisition of Ambir. He now invests his time as a Board Member of various organizations bringing expertise in the area of technology governance and cyber-risk oversight.

I spoke with Jane Pike on Oct 21, 2020. We had a very insightful conversation not only about her journey to working with riders but also about how all her past experiences and roles prior to doing this work are incorporated in what she does to help people be the best they can be. She also shared observations and tools that help with connecting to intuition from the helping people who have gone through trauma or deal with pain to reconnect with their intuition when they don't always trust their body. So many ways that her work and insights can be applied in everyone's daily life. Bio For as long as I can remember, I’ve been fascinated by two things: horses and well, how to be happy. What is it that makes us happy, successful, brave, bold? Why do some people end up sinking when others thrive? And what’s more, how do we be our best selves when it comes to showing up for our horses? To non-horsey people, it might be a stretch to see how human psychology and behaviour and horses blend together so seamlessly. I mean, don’t get me wrong, it is possible to have a horse/ rider relationship that’s purely transactional (we see it all the time across all disciplines). Where we ride for a result, and horses are just the means for us to get that result. There are loads of us though who know that as soon as you start to scratch the surface, then it’s pretty clear that if you want to take it to the next level you have to look yourself before you turn to your horse. We see that to create a partnership with our horses where we are both happy and purposeful in what we’re doing requires us to be integrated, emotionally connected and in charge of ourselves. That’s where the gold is. Integrated in that we are constantly developing our skills and methods in a way that’s ethical, empathetic and effective. Where we value the importance of emotional and intuitive intelligence as well as the intellectual stuff. Emotionally connected in that we can recognise how we feel and channel it effectively, which benefits not only our horses, but ourselves and those around us. Connected because at the end of the day, the connection is where the fulfilment lies. When I take all of this, what I see is that horses are my life practice. They have gifted me with insight and self-reflection. They prompt me to learn more about myself and how I operate in the world so that I can be the best horseperson possible. Best person possible. Horses and life. They are impossible to separate. I know there are many people out there who feel the same and chances are you are one of those people. I’m excited to adventure with you! I get to tie all the threads together- the mental and emotional skills we need- and present them in a way that allows you to develop a wholehearted and fulfilling relationship with your horse, no matt

I spoke with Jim Masterson on Oct 22, 2020 and we spoke about doing the next thing and how stopping can both be intuition. We also spoke about how he was just lead to do the next thing and the next thing and by not getting in the way his curiosity and willingness has taken him from being a groom to a teacher of teachers of his own method of helping horses release tension and pain that is around the world. I see a huge correlation between his processes and how we all can bring more insight and be lead if we just Doubt the Doubt and How Stopping Getting Out of the Way and Doing Nothing can be intuition. Bio In 1998, while Jim was grooming horses on the U.S. hunter-jumper show circuit, he noticed while watching physical therapists work on horses that the horse exhibited certain subtle changes in behavior that correlated to what the therapists were doing. He learned that if you trust and follow what the horse is telling you as you work on it, the horse’s body will participate in the process of releasing tension. The result is not only an improvement in performance, but also in the trust that develops between the horse and human. From 2004 to 2013 Jim worked on top equine competitors on the US hunter-jumper circuit in events such as the USEF and Maclay Medal series, and FEI Grand Prix, Nations Cup, Pan American and World Cup jumping events, and with members of the USEF Singles Driving Team. In 2006, Jim was invited to accompany the U.S. Endurance Team to the FEI World Equestrian Games in Aachen, Germany. Team member Jennifer Niehaus said afterward, “Of all the things that were done for my horse Cheyenne, the bodywork Jim did was the most beneficial. He has truly never moved as nicely as he did in Germany.” In 2008 Jim was again asked to accompany the Team to the FEI World Endurance Championships in Malaysia. Team member Meg Sleeper, DVM; “It is impossible to overestimate Jim’s ability to keep performance horses working at their peak level. Simply put, he is like having a secret weapon.” He continued to accompany the team to the 2010 WEG in Lexington, the 2012 World Championships in England, and the 2014 WEG in Normandy, France. Since 2006, over 4,000 horse owners have attended Masterson Method Weekend Seminar-Workshops, and he has trained over 330 Masterson Method Certified Practitioners in 20 countries. His book and DVD, Beyond Horse Massage, has sold over 50,000 copies and been translated into six languages. It is the No. 1 seller in the equine veterinary category on Amazon.

I spoke with Angela Geddes on Oct 2, 2020 about her life with horses and how she uses intuition in her work as a coach co facilitating with her horses on her land to bring about authentic change in her clients. Angela also speaks about her corporate life before starting her own business and how her health and her daughters lead her to finally listen to her own intuition and take the leap to start her own business. Bio Angela Geddes, the sole proprietor of Soul on Fire Coaching and Equine Guided Wellness Center provides a unique experience in her “Coaching from the Barn” model where clients are supported in their own soul connection while being coached in partnership with her herd of horses. Clients are invited to connect in mind, body and spirit through the wisdom of horses and nature. Soul on Fire was established in July 2015 following a variety of life transitions experienced by Angela – a resignation from a long-term corporate career, the sudden loss of her father and niece and a desire to be more present in all areas of life placing physical and emotional health as a top priority while recovering from a burnout. It was born out of a desire to thrive and truly live with a Soul on Fire in order to demonstrate the life that is possible for her two daughters and to be a parent that was present “when her children got off the bus” for the first time ever. Soul on Fire allowed Angela to put her passion for people and lifelong love for horses into an offering like no other where clients experience exceptional transformation. While Soul on Fire Coaching and Equine Guided Wellness Center has evolved over the last five years, the vision remains the same – soul connection and helping clients discover what sets their soul on fire and unfold what is required to transition forward. The services offered by Soul on Fire includes life and/or leadership coaching, reflexology, Indian head massage, guided meditations in nature and/or with the horses, guided nature walks, and business consulting primarily in the field of strategic Human Resources. Angela’s credentials include being a horse owner of 25 years +, a 30 year corporate career with experience in Finance and Human Resources, a Masters in Business Administration (MBA) with a concentration in Human Resources achieved through the Heriot-Watt University in Edinburgh Scotland, Certified Co-Active Coach studied through Coach Training Institute (CTI) and a number of equine facilitated learning approaches including the Horse Medicine Leadership Academy (equine guided coach facilitation), Natural Lifemanship (a trauma informed equine program) and EAGALA (mental health and equine specialist approach). When Angela is not supporting her clients to ignite that fire within, you will find her somewhere on the farm with her husband and daughters and cows, the horses or her dogs and you may just find her slugging a log over her shoulder clearing land to make room for more

I spoke with Connie Cunningham on Oct 21, 2020. We spoke about how she went from thinking about intuition was for other people to living from her intuition on a daily basis. How things have shown up in her life and transformed it from nutrition to the Way of the Heart and the Halo. We also spoke about how her daughter interestingly enough created the first situation that made her start to realize that she has the ability to listen. Bio I would describe myself as a truth seeker. The shift in my journey began when my daughter had repeated ear infections and a constant runny nose. After 7 bouts of antibiotics and surgery to remove her “faulty” adenoids(which a red me was my daughters problem), three weeks after surgery we were dealing with yet again an ear infection. I was asking all the right questions to the wrong people. Heather and I worked together for a brief period when at the time she shared that my daughter’s problem might be dairy. It took me 6 months to get my head wrapped around the fact that NO WHERE or NO ONE in our medical system even hinted the food my daughter loved the most was what was causing her issues. From that time on I knew I had to take that nutrition course and help to share the same info that Heather shared with me. My intuition at that time came in the form of asking questions. I used to think that being intuitive or having intuition was something everyone else had. I know now that intuition is from God. A voice, an image, a connection, a knowing, a wisdom that doesn’t come from us. A calling for a relationship with a source so much bigger than ourselves. As a Naturopath, we talk about healing the Mind Body and Spirit. From a voice calling me to “Go buy a book” at a time when it just didn’t make sense, I met the founder of The Rediscovery of the Heart Institute and will forever be learning about The Spiritual Heart and sharing with others.

I spoke with Denis Duquette on Oct 14, 2020 and we had a great conversation about how doing and not doing something can be just as intuitive. We also spoke about something he has been doing all his life and it isn't photography though he has been doing that most his life. Being able to read people and build connection quickly has been something he has been doing through out his life and in many aspects of his life that he hadn't thought of as an intuitive process but came to realize it truly is. We also spoke about how as much as photography needs technical skills there are aspects that are so intuitive and also how those aspects can relate to everyone's lives.

I woke up with the nudge to share more about what I do to help energetically sensitive people. Who are energetically sensitive people? Empaths or people who are aware of the feelings of others or of the mood in a room or people who get affected just by being out in public or people who are easily drained or are the "Caring Super Hero". Learning some simple tools can make all the difference and sometimes it is a shift in perspective or creating healthy energetic boundaries in a way that you didn't know was possible. All these tools are quick and easy but should be used consistently to reap the benefits. In this episode I explain more about them but you can investigate more on my website as well. I also get into more details on what Chronic Reversed Polarity and Bach Flower Remedies are so that people in stressful situations can understand there are tools and reasons why we sometimes just don't recover from the stress. I hope that my information gives you some clarity and I also hope you listen to you nudge if any of this resonates with you. I would just like to help more people and animals get the tools they need to optimize their well being physically, emotionally and energetically.

I spoke with Karen Thomas on Sept 24, 2020. It was great to learn more about how her business came to be and the fact that she listens to her intuition even when it feels like it could be a risk. That knowing that it is coming from God and following his lead can be so empowering and also give us a sense that it will be ok even if it feels uncomfortable at first. Bio My love of horses started early with the influence of my Dad. He began showing Clydesdale horses when I was in grade 1. I was lucky because I always had a pony or horse growing up. In 1975 Dad & Mom started North Stream Farm Tack Shop. As a kid it was a dream to run a store and that dream continues today. I met a young man at one of those horse shows who shared the horse passion and Kevin and I married in 1983. We both worked other jobs along with the farm and tack shop in the early years. We have four wonderful kids; our greatest accomplishment. They have all taken part in the shop at some point in the growing up and each share the entrepreneurial sense. In 1993 the tack shop became my full time. Through the next few years we began traveling and setting up booths at shows as well as organizing events to promote the industry. In 2019 we built a new building for the shop after we purchased my family’s farm. As the sign on the wall says “My Piece of heaven “ . People often comment how peaceful it is in the shop. I am grateful I get to share it with others. I guess intuition would have played its part in every decision made.

Robyn spoke about intuition showing up in the HR world, in their business and as a parent and putting all the pieces together and do the next thing. I'm excited to share our chat with you. Bio Robyn Schiller has been riding horses since before she could walk. It only made sense to marry a horse trainer, since she decided early in her 20’s that a life without horses was not an option. Married to Australian, Warwick Schiller, Robyn spent the first 20 years of their marriage working corporate HR jobs and riding on the side. When Warwick’s YouTube and Subscription Video Library business took off, she left the corporate world to support the family business.

I spoke with Beth Stevens on April 1, 2020. I met Beth at a podcast event called the Boiling Point. Beth shares with us about she developed Beth's Bike Light being inspired by a tragedy that affected a local cyclist named Ellen Watters and how her light will help drivers abide by the new law named Ellen's Law in New Brunswick Canada which helps drivers know what 1 meter distance is that is safe for drivers and cyclists to share the road. Beth's Bike Light Story Our Story One night I was listening to the radio in my kitchen. A very interesting news story came on. Ellen Watters story. Ellen Watters was a professional cyclist from Sussex NB. In December of 2016 she was out for a training run. Sadly a driver did not see her. She was hit by the car and passed away. This caused much sadness in the cycling community. Ellen was known for her passion for the sport, and her contagious positive attitude. The cycling community then introduced a new law to parliament. Eventually it came to pass “Ellen’s law” . This states that motorist must give cyclist 1 meter on the road. Since starting this venture, I have met many incredible cyclists. All of them have one thing in common. They are all passionate about their sport. Cycling is very good for the environment, while also having many benefits on our physical and mental health. Still cyclist are limited to their passion, because they do not feel safe on the roads. This is a problem. Ellen’s story inspired me to make a change. Then I had an idea, what if cyclist gave drivers a visual aid on the road? If drivers had a visual, it could help prevent many accidents from happening. Around the time I had this idea, I had a project due in school. My task was to solve a real problem using science technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM). Then I had the idea that lit up my world forever (pun intended). What if I created a light that showed drivers how much room to give cyclist on the road? That way drivers would not have to guess. They would have an exact measurement. This could be a great STEM project idea! The next day, my dad and I took a trip to Princess Auto. Finally after many hours and one full roll of duck tape, The first ever prototype was created. Although it was our first light, we did not stop there.

Eleven years ago this week was the start of a 3 year journey into working with kids to embrace and utilize their intuition and gifts to build confidence, build a sense of belonging and create a fun, safe environment for kids to show up and be 100% authentic. How embracing an idea that made no sense on paper and was unique and never done before and building it into a wonderful space and place for kids to thrive and inspire. Originally, 4 women pulled off this "Hogwarts-like" experience for 36 kids ages 4-12 and then it became 2 women over the years with a core group of kids coming to every single possible session/event that Intuit Kids had. Joy is not an on demand emotion. It is something that is a gift from God in my world. It came with that camp and those kids.

I spoke with Kerri May 4, 2020. It was insightful to hear how her life experiences has brought her back to her intuition and living an authentic life helping humans communicate and live more effectively with each other and with their animals. Bio Kerri Lake is the author of Listen Like A Horse and Spiritually Gifted. Since 2014 she has traveled intentionally to share perspectives, tools and guidance for people to open their hearts and include themselves in the harmony of life. Since early childhood, Kerri Lake has been aware of her communication with animals and nature. Her family was not able to support the development of her abilities. As hard as she tried to be normal, she just couldn’t make that work. Being “good with animals” put her on a path toward veterinary school, but it was quickly obvious that her natural way of being would not be supported in that environment either. She looked for every opportunity to stay connected with horses so she could stay connected to her heart. Mystical and intuitive experiences were part of her normal life. She was in her early 30’s before she connected with other people who could help her share her abilities with humans and not just animals. Using her own lifetime of experience, going through abusive relationships, healing animals and people through presence, reclaiming herself from devastatingly low self-esteem, she now offers 1-1 sessions, online and in-person courses and other creative collaborations to help others reclaim their own hearts. Whenever she can, she integrates the presence and consciousness of horses and other animals to help people remember that they are still included in the community and harmony of all life.

I spoke with Ashlee Feb 27, 2020. It was delightful to learn more about her work and her observations of how having life literally 'shatter' has lead her to getting back to herself and get more in alignment with what truly works for her. We discuss the ideal life and how alignment isn't always the easy or pretty road but it is the most gratifying and rewarding and peaceful road in the end. So many wonderful insights shared during our conversation it was truly a blessing to listen to this wise soul. Bio Ashlee is a counselling therapist (LCT-C) and an art therapist. Ashlee completed her MA in Counselling Psychology with Yorkville University, and her Art Therapy certification from The Vancouver Art Therapy Institute.

She practices from a trauma-informed and person-centered framework, integrating evidenced-based therapies, Mindfulness techniques and expressive art approaches. The intention of my practice is to offer people a space where they feel seen and heard. A place where they can feel safe to express themselves, however they may need. I want people to feel empowered to make choices and do the work that will lead them to feeling more assured in their own skin, better equipped to cope with their emotions and experiences, and feel more capable in managing their own mental wellbeing."

I spoke with Emily Rodger March 20, 2020 while we under social distancing in Canada due to the COVID 19 Pandemic. It was interesting times and we were able to bring some insights that were good for then and hopefully will inspire well into the future. Bio Emily Rodger was raised in New Brunswick, Canada, and comes from a family of 4 girls. She worked as a dental hygienist before pursing her passion for triathlon and cycling. Her journey in to sport was not the most typical way, she did not really grow up playing sports and bought her first road bike at the age of 28. Before she knew it, she was racing in the professional peloton and had become a full-time athlete. Emily is a 2x UCI GranFondo World Champion (both Time Trial and Road Race), Canadian Masters National Time Trial Champion, 70.3 Ironman world qualifier etc. Emily's success in sport has shown her that our lives can lead us in directions we couldn’t even have imagined, we just need to stay authentic, and vulnerable. Among her success in cycling/triathlon, Emily has had more then her fair share of setbacks. She has been in 2 very serious cycling crashes (struck by vehicles on two separate occasions while riding). These crashes resulted in multiple broken bones, a brain injury, extensive soft tissue/facial damage etc. Emily knows how it feels to be knocked down, time and time again, both physically and mentally. Faith and perseverance are what got her through. During her recovery from her first accident, she found her love of fly fishing. Within her search for fish, has come a greater understanding and acceptance of who she is, and what she values. She has learned that the greatest reward in overcoming adversity and hardships is finding ourselves in the process. Pursuing her passion for “life" has brought her to countless places all over the world. Her luggage typically consists of fly fishing gear, a bike, a pair of cowboy boots or all of the above! There is a fire in her spirit to continue to explore all of these joys and to encourage others to explore what brings them joy. Emily chooses to live life with an open heart; to love it, to adore it, and to cherish it. You can find Emily on Facebook under Emily Rodger and also on Instagram if you wish to follow her travels.

People have been asking what the connection to intuition that crows in the trees has. Why do I ask you to come be a crow in the tree? I thought I would give you a background on the logo for this podcast and why we are gathering as crows in the trees. Crows are highly intelligent birds. They can build tools. They are family oriented and they also are community oriented. Have you ever seen crows gather in the trees before sundown? Watch for it. Listen for it. Pay attention. It is a sight to be seen. Crows are messengers. I see each guest as being a messenger to a segment of the listeners or perhaps all the listeners to this podcast. I see each podcast as being its own crow being a messenger to people who need to hear the message. Crows are witnesses. They see everything. They study us.

I spoke with Lisa Arie Jan 9, 2020 and we spoke about her road to her current role supporting people around the world with a transformational tool she has developed with her horses and her husband at there location in Colorado. This transformation can happen in person with the horses or online and it will have the same effect. Lisa in her own way is sharing what she lived with her own transformation by 'going to the horse' when she was basically given a death sentence. Lisa's Bio Lisa Arie co-founded Vista Caballo with her husband Jess Arie. Lisa designs and leads the personal and leadership development experiences. Fast Company magazine calls Lisa a “CEO whisperer.” Lisa’s early life granted her a unique perspective of life. She was born in New York. Starting at the age of two and throughout her childhood and teenage years, her father’s international job with Time magazine moved the family to New Zealand, Australia, Singapore, South Africa, the Netherlands, and England. Lisa met Maori, Maasai, and aborigines. She ice-skated on frozen canals and hiked through jungles. She even dodged gunfire during the Singapore-Malaysian Riots. After attending college in England and the United States, Lisa graduated with a BA from Hampshire College. Her career took off shortly after she graduated. Named one of Adweek magazine’s Creative All Stars, she produced the famed Motel Six commercials featuring Tom Bodett (“We’ll leave the light on for you.”), selected by Advertising Age magazine as one of the Top 100 Advertising Campaigns of the Twentieth Century After working for agencies for seven years, Lisa used a $5,000 loan from her parents to start her own businesses. They grew into multi-million dollar companies. She created thousands of commercials for brands, such as Adidas, Anheuser-Bush, British Airways, and Miller and led a paradigm shift in the advertising industry. Twelve years into her entrepreneurial run, Lisa was confronted with a terminal disease that made her re-evaluate what was important in life and what she wanted to leave the world in terms of contribution. As she writes in her memoir, Crossing the Silly Bridge , “When our hearts speak and we listen, we find ourselves.” With a new sense of consciousness, Lisa decided “I was not going to die without having first lived. Even if it was for just one day.” Lisa listened to her heart and it led her, seemingly illogically, to the world of the horse. She studied with legendary horse whisperers and their disciples. She learned about the interpersonal journey and presence. She transformed. She came alive in a way she had never been before. She did not die. There’s no tr

Annie L. Breau was my guest June 3, 2019. We sat down and discussed how intuition has played out in her life over the years in her relationships, her work, her health and her mental health. She shares about how each part of her path has brought her to her perfect right now. Dealing with burnout and depression became a beautiful gift that helps her in her current role advocating and supporting people with mental health issues. Annie L. Breau’s Bio Annie is a student of life, a lifelong learner of everything it has to offer – even her number one strength as per Gallup is ‘Learner’. She has a college diploma, a university degree and who knows someday she’ll probably obtain her masters as well. However, for the time being, she thrives on all the knowledge available to human-kind, from books, to podcast, videos, blogs...anything that connects her to the written word and feeds her soul. She’s currently a Silver Sister on the rise and she lives for constant growth, and positivity. She knows that we are meant to evolve, change and grow as a human-being and without it, we fade away. She is thankful for her journey of the past, of today, and whatever The Universe has in store for her tomorrow. She is very grateful for her life since she knows it always gets better in the end. We simply need to just breathe, believe, heal, learn and inspire; and give it time, since the sun also and always rises again every day – so should we. Her first life awakening book at 24yrs of age was “The Saint, The Surfer & The CEO”, by Robin Sharma. Today, she currently has 10 books on the go pending on her flow; however, her latest go to has been “Emotional Advantage”, by Randy Taran. To simply add to her passion of learning, her latest book purchase was “Everything is Figureoutable” by Marie Forleo. When she’s not reading, you can find Annie spending quality time in nature with her husband Jon and their two cocker spaniel dogs, Marshal & Dice. She also ensures to always create beautiful memories, no matter how simple, with friends and family as well. She lives for today!

Ann Perry was my guest on April 25, 2019. She lives outside Halifax, Nova Scotia and is a numerologist. She gives us some insights into how numbers are part of who we are and also into how her own intuition comes to her. She gives us some simple and profound insights and tools we can use to connect with our intuition and also get validation from nature. She brings into the conversation the value of being more present in our lives and also how literally life can ‘nudge’ us to let go and allow life to happen. Ann Perry’s favourite book is You are a Badass How to stop doubting and start living an awesome life by Jen Sincero. https://amzn.to/2NrpXtt (As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases) Ann Perry’s Bio My name is Ann Perry and I, just like you, had many questions about my life’s purpose. Years ago,I was a bit of a metaphysical junkie! I took all sorts of courses, read all sorts of books, experienced all kinds of healing sessions…but my life began to make sense once I discovered Numerology! So, I have committed a third of my life to helping people reconnect to their Soul’s contract through Numerology readings, workshops and courses. There is no bigger thrill for me than to help you identify what the heck you are here for! So why would you choose me as your Numerologist? Well, I believe that you deserve to know what your unique birth code is and that there is nothing “simple” about it! I also believe that it’s not enough to say you simply have a life path number of 6 or maybe 7. I am committed to helping you to understand just “what KIND of 6 or 7 are you?” After all, not all life path numbers are created equal! Did you know that there are actually 37 different “types” of life path numbers? I know I’m supposed to tell you that I’m a frequent guest speaker on radio and television and that I regularly contribute to various publications, but what I really want you to know about me is that I am genuinely passionate about helping you move forward out of your funk! I will often share parts of my life with you, not to make it “about me” but because I believe my crazy life experiences have paved the way to help you. So, I guess my gift is being relatable. On a more personalnote, I have a passion for horses and even though my body still questions why,I still ride regularly. My Mom instilled within me a passion for gardening and the love of all creatures big and small. My life purpose is to help you to discover yours.

Dan Poirier was my guest June 28,2019. He graciously said yes to this podcast when I ran into him at our local market. You see when I saw him I knew that he was a great example for people of listening to his instincts because of his role in our community. Dan is a police officer. I wanted to share that it can be critical for some people to listen to their instincts but also it can be what keeps a level head in life as well. Through the interview we discuss various ways that intuition has shown up in his life. We discuss what helps him stay connected and also deal with the stresses of his job. Coping skills we can all use when we think about it. Dan shows us that intuition and gut instincts are the same thing. He talks about how hindsight helps him see his how his actions worked to make a better outcome during sometimes very tough situations. We don’t all need to be police officers to get out of the way and act on our instincts. It is interesting as well how Dan’s life had ‘bread crumbs’ that he uses regularly now as an adult in his stress management and also in his community building activities. We all need to make sure we are more than just the jobs we do 8, 12, 24 hours a day. Making time for those other things is an important piece of the puzzle. Dan’s favourite books are anything written by Neil Peart (drummer of the band Rush) about travel, music and personal journeys through life.

She loves to build community and connection between people and nature while building skills. Sarah’s other business is called Speak UP with Sarah Lord which is about grief recovery and tools for supporting people with anxiety. She has built side businesses that bring her joy. Sarah also share candidly about coming out of a very unhealthy relationship and how intuition supported her in that journey. Heather “I find for myself too I often say words that I need to hear. Or it will sink when they are out loud. It’s almost like now that I have said it It’s real. Sarah - Exactly It is more of an acknowledgement and acceptance because not only is it out there out loud for not only myself to hear but for the world actually” Heather “I know some physical symptoms can actually be the body remembering stuff and there are so many interesting tools out there now. Sarah - I guess the way I think about is it is almost like a plantar wart. There is a like a seed that is deep within and it needs to get out because that seed plants lies in your body of danger that is not in fact there but your body perceives it as if there was a lion and you do need to run and your body goes through the same fight or flight response” Sarah “It’s just like an idea. I don’t know where it comes from but it’s inspiring and exciting and it ignites something inside of me so far I have never been led astray following it. I just go where it takes me and then I think the important thing is too to surround yourself with positive encouraging people who help you go for it because there is a lot of people who will say well that sounds silly that could.” For more information on what Sarah is doing with her two businesses Maritime Detours- Hiking and Snowshoeing Tours https://www.facebook.com/MaritimeDetours/ Speak Up with Sarah Lord https://www.facebook.com/speakupwithsarahlord/ Maritime Detours (MD) also offers 'trail programs'- Learn to Hike, Snowshoe, Nordic Walking and we have groups for Women and Girls to introduce them to outdoor adventure- Women of the Wilderness and Little Women of the Wilderness.

Renee-France LeBlanc was my guest May 28, 2019. She is the Creative Director and owner of Greenlight Design. Renee-France and I were joined by her dog Ziggy in her home. There is a story to Ziggy and how she arrived in Renee-France’s life. Intuitively lead and meant to be I would say. Renee-France and I discuss how she got into her business and how intuition supports everything she does in her role as Creative Director. We have worked together for roughly 13 years and I have to say I’m not surprised by how she works after she explained her process to me. She makes it so easy to work together because it is like she knows what I want without me being able to describe it. Renee-France also speaks to how making career choices can be a difficult process but if we just go where it feels like home, we will always be in the right place. Renee-France “I have for a long time felt things so vibrations that bring me into my areas of where I create and how I create so if I meet someone I bring that feeling with me when I go to work. It is difficult to understand in that sense because you know you can be a designer and you can learn to be a designer and you can go to school to do that and some people have incredible talent. But it is another thing to make sure that the business reflects exactly what the message needs to say…. I just let it happen. It’s something that is within me I can’t really explain. You know people have told me that they like my work and I don’t really know why I have that talent or where it comes from but I just let it happen I guess is what I want to say.” Heather “Has there been a time when you haven’t listened. Renee-France "Yes and it’s not been good. It has kicked me in the butt when I don’t listen to what I need to listen to. There’s been a few times where I’ve made decisions that in my gut knew was wrong even though people were telling me it was right and it wasn’t.” Renee-France “So I suddenly decided that I needed a pet and I for some reason went on Kijiji. And Someone had mentioned to me that there was a cat rescue place here in town and I couldn’t find the cat rescue place. I just google it real quick. But I did stumble upon Kijiji. So I thought I will find a cat on Kijiji. And I start googling cats and this little one for whatever reason pops into the search. Heather- OH my gosh if that’s not divine. Renee-France “So I didn’t really think about getting a dog. I knew what dogs were I knew they were a huge responsibility. I’m not the type of person that would have ever thought about getting a dog in my life But I for whatever reason clicked on this ad and as ridiculous as it sounds I fell in love.” Renee-France’s favourite books these days are Built to Sell by John Warillow Copy and paste this Amazon link to find it https://amzn.to/2ZCXuHL (As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases) And David and Goliath by Malcolm Gladwell.

Kari Stultz was my guest on April 14, 2019 and during our time together we talk about how returning to her roots through an intuitive nudge about foraging brings her joy. She also shares how she has to negotiate with her critical brain to follow her intuition recently when she took 2 years away from her role in the local school division. She also makes the connection how much the energy of others or her environment impact her intuition. Is energy intuition? I think in the context she is speaking about it, absolutely. I believe many people can learn about tools she has incorporates to support her as energy gives her her intuition. Kari “It’s always been that way. And for the longest time I had no idea that that was happening so I would be inundated with this information that I didn’t realize other people weren’t necessarily processing. Once you figure out that that is actually happening to you, it takes a little time to adjust but I think that everything has an energy signature so ya I’m getting an energy signature from people but I’m curious if I’m getting the same information from people as well. If that’s why I have noticed those pieces. I’m not sure. I think I need a little more time to let my critical brain wrap its mind around those things because well you know what I’m like. There’s my intuition piece and my critical brain and they often like fight it out. “ Kari “It really comes in as just a knowing. I just have information that I’m not sure how it got there and a lot of the times I even question whether I’ve made it up or if it’s actual information. Now through trial and error I found out a lot of the times it is very accurate. When it just happens I find myself I can be really logical and I find myself fighting with it. That doesn’t make sense. Why do you think you know that? Why is that happening? Why are you responding to that because of something you feel? I’m doing it less now though.” Kari “I think I deal a lot with energy and sometimes it gives me an insight into something whether you want to call that intuition. Some people I guess would. But I think for me it’s pretty energy based. “ Kari’s favourite book on her wall of books is A Fine Balance by Rohinton Mistry Copy and paste this link to find it on Amazon https://amzn.to/33oCwKb (As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases) Here is the link to her foraging and herbal medicine courses through The Chestnut School of Herbal Medicine https://chestnutherbs.com/ Plant that helps with PTSD and trauma – Ghost pipe even sitting with helps.

Natalie Lockhart was my guest Jan 17, 2019 and we talked about the inner battle between intuition and the reality of what is good on paper or good for the real world responsibilities. Natalie is just like so many on the planet who has done this battle and lived to tell the tale. We talk about tools she uses to cope in her busy life like the “practice” of meditation. We also speak about her company Heads Up Society and how the world needs her message of less technology to be more present and potentially more productive. Here are some quotes from today’s podcast. Natalie “Yep When I listen to my intuition regarding anything It does my life is just simpler.” Natalie “My body was saying I needed some kind of a release. In my mind I always wanted to go to a shooting range to a firing range. That’s how my body reacted to me not listening to my intuition was I need to do something to release this rage. This whatever was happening and it is sits in my belly and it sat there for years and I was never really sure what that actually meant. That’s what it looked like for me. “ Heather “The Heads Up Society is filling your intuition. Natalie “Exactly So now I have an out because I have found something that doesn’t feel like work and that’s really cool. And that’s for the first time ever. That I have spent my 20 plus years as an adult just kind of searching figuring out my way and my journey and it’s lead me to this moment. AHH” I love learning what people are reading because it tells me a little bit more about them.

Why a podcast about intuition? I want to have more people realize that we all have this tool. Why is intuition so important? What are ways we can connect to our own intuition? What are different ways of seeing intuition? These are questions I want to help you answer. This podcast was recorded 6 months into this process of birthing See’rs, Be-ers, Knowers and Doers. It is with a bit of hindsight and intuition about the why I’m doing this podcast. Here are some quotes from today’s podcast. “My nephew asked me the other day ‘What is intuition?’ He’s 21. When I was talking to him about my podcast he was like ‘what is intuition’? And my definition to him was a feeling, knowing or sense of things when you don’t have proof or you can’t explain why. I think we have all had that before. In fact, I know we have all had that before.” “It’s always interesting to me to hear other people’s stories about their intuition because they’re so diverse and in some ways so profound and in other ways so simplistic on how they come about and what they have brought that person to in the end.” “It is to tap into this early warning system, this GPS, this system that is innately given to us, divinely lead that is helping us reach our ultimate goals, our purpose in life, to stay as healthy as we can and keep us in line with the people and tribe that we are supposed to be working with on this planet called earth.” There is no guest on today’s podcast but with each podcast I want to give you a bit more insight into the person who is just like you and me. I find the books we spend time with or that are our favourites can give us a peek inside what makes a person tick. My favourite childhood book is The Velveteen Rabbit by Margery Williams Copy and paste this Amazon link to find it https://amzn.to/2PQj2Mp (As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases) My favourite book as an adult a difficult one in pick.
