In this episode I speak with Christina Keim, author of Unwanted, The Causes and Effects of America’s Horse Population Crisis. This is a book every horse lover needs to read, and I’m so happy to share this with you. It’s a subject that is uncomfortable to look at, but necessary.
About the Guest:
Christina Keim, M.Ed., M.F.A. is an award-winning equestrian journalist and professional horsewoman with over 25 years experience in the industry. Her written work has appeared extensively in top equestrian publications, and she is the author of the new book, Unwanted: the Causes and Effects of America’s Horse Population Crisis. For nearly twenty years a top intercollegiate hunter seat coach, Ms. Keim now teaches compassionate horsemanship and offers Equestrian Yoga and Mounted Mindfulness sessions both on the road and out of her Cold Moon Farm in Rochester, New Hampshire (christinakeim.com).
