In this episode, I am joined again by Karen Partisch who specializes in CST for people and horses, as well as energy work.

EP071: My Horse My Rules
In this episode I’ll talk about rules that exist for horse behavior and whether or not we all need to abide by them. You might guess by the title of this episode that I think there is some wiggle room. There are also some rules about relaxing rules.
EP070: Anthropomorphism
In this episode I’ll talk about Anthropomorphism and how it is bad to do that with our horses…. Or is it?
