The Adventure Paradox

Yes. Yes you can! It is an optical illusion that it is greener far away... but one worth understanding: see Brene Brown's Atlas of the Heart to better understand this, or find me on social media to see how we created more contrast with color in the dog days of summer.

Welcome to another exciting episode as we began our summer rebranding process of Horses, Mountains & Dogs to The Adventure Paradox. I had the pleasure of interviewing the fabulous Julia from Julia's Styling Secret. Julia's self-learning program is a game-changer for anyone looking to enhance their personal style and boost their self-confidence. During our chat, Julia shared her backg...

Welcome to another exciting episode and get ready to be captivated as Amanda shares her unique perspective on the "farmer handshake," a concept that beautifully captures the essence of genuine human connection. But that's just the beginning! Amanda Nigg bravely opens up about the devastating events that unfolded at the start of the pandemic when her house was tragically burnt down....

So Who ARE you?  I'm not talking about who you were, who you want to be or who you will be... I'm talking about who you are at your core - your essence - those truths that are unshakeable. It's not that you can't change - like the seasons, you can and will if and when you are ready. The question is, are you running around sharing some other version of yourself that does not fit...

In a world where mental health remains a topic shrouded in stigma, it takes extraordinary individuals to sow the seeds of change.  None of us would likely be here without the farmers who work so tirelessly to plow the fields to give us all fresh produce, wheat, dairy and meat. The agricultural community has unique blessings and challenges that we need to tie a green ribbon around (for those wonder...

Are you in that space of transition? Or of feeling like you bit off more than you could chew? Or that life got "lifey' on you all of a sudden? Or you are just overwhelmed? When that happens, do you go "dark" and quiet and stop talking about it or sharing what you are feeling while you are healing? I do.  For sure this is a pattern, and it is okay to let go of some things and kn...

It's not every day that you get to sit down and interview your relative! In this amazing episode, we cover a lot of ground with one of my greatest heroes of all time - my very own maternal Grandfather.  Straight from the horse's mouth, John Lillard asked me to include this for his bio: "I was born when I was a very small boy [tongue in cheek here - haha] in Cincinnati on May 31, 193...

Have you ever stopped to thank your teachers from high school or other chapters of your life? What if you stayed connected to them and their lives, beyond the classroom? What more might you learn or know about them, their teachings, and yourself, as time goes on? Is it possible you are connected through mutual stories? The power of sharing stories - the original way of teaching between people - is...

In this Monday Minisode, my girls asked me to interview them! Listen to their short and sweet wisdom about the things that really matter, from the first words and thoughts we can form to the very last... their answers and perceptiveness may surprise you!

Join me on this new episode with the remarkable Michelle Rios, an acclaimed speaker, upcoming author, and the charismatic host of the Live Your Extraordinary Life podcast. Michelle shares her extraordinary story, starting with the unexpected arrival of her two beloved canine companions. These gentle giants not only stole her heart but also played a significant role in shaping her life's path....

In this podcast episode, I do a deep dive in to what it means to be at home, and when and how you can go there, regardless of wherever you find yourself in time and space. The day after Mother's Day I am feeling a little off, honestly. I had a great time with my family and some wonderful friends who stopped by, for the inaugural camping trip in our new dream horse trailer - that was all great...

For Mother's Day, I am dropping one of my favorite interviews to date with a fisherman, rancher, horseman & former spy, Bayard Fox.  Bayard sat down to share stories of his life a week after his 94th birthday with me, and they are all indicative of "a life well lived," as the subtitle of his book states. Bayard was 93 when he published his memoir, title Rancher, Fisherman, Horse...

What happens when we GO BIG?  What does that even mean? How do you show up in the larger purchases, or to the biggest adventures and dreams of your life? In this episode, I ask if you ever considered that when you go after something that feels big to you, you also get better by doing so, and so does everyone else around you. This has been my experience in life, and I use some epic stories about sk...

Welcome to our latest episode where we have a special guest, Kinder Fayssoux, a functional family medicine physician and life coach who loves to work with women who want to understand why weight loss after their 40s is so hard. In this episode, we'll be diving deep into the world of tele-health and how doctors are moving toward the virtual space to provide better care for their patients. Kind...

In the pandemic, every single one of us had an opportunity to filter this question, regardless of our circumstances. It was humbling, sometimes scary and sometimes liberating all at once as we all worked through the facts of our lives. Those facts very quickly bump up on our BS, aka "Belief Systems."  What is essential is based on our beliefs, but only to some extent... in this Monday mi...

Do you ever just sit back and wait for things to unfold?  I do.  Waiting is a virtue that I have cultivated (that's the word I was looking for in this minisode- ha!). But sometimes I am so patient that I miss opportunities and let them drift by... Not this time - this time I am following through and finishing this book.  If you have something like a book in you, I believe it wants to be writt...

This was my first interview with 3 people at once!  It was also my first two hour interview, so we are sharing it in two parts.  In part one, you will get to meet and learn a bit about all three of our guests, and in part two we take the conversation deeper. Here is a bit more about each of our guests and how you can find them: GUEST 1: Lynn Thomas, LCSW, Co-founder/CEO of Arenas for Change (ARCH)...

In part two of this two part episode, I go deeper with Lynn Thomas, Ulla Frederiksen and her husband, Fred Bueltmann, to understand some of their most miraculous experiences working with horses themselves, and witnessing the transformations of the groups and clients they have connected to horses.  (If you have not heard their individual introductions, I encourage you to go back to part one, which...

Since the first time I came to Jackson Hole, Wyoming, I was filled with the deep and resounding energy of a capital Yes.  When I lived here for a decade, that YES got stronger, and I used to joke with my friends: "We LIVE here??"  To this day, that feeling has not changed - just like my ABSOLUTELY YES love for my partner. In this episode, I do a deep dive in to some unusual stories that...

Our conversation continues with Kim McElroy.  By the end we were both in tears - horses bring us a love and connection beyond anything we could have ever imagined. In this episode, we'll explore the fascinating world of horse card decks and how Kim's Spirit of the Horse deck came to be. If you enjoy connecting with cards. We'll also delve into Kim's personal experience with hor...

My conversation with Kim made me feel like a kid again.  It was a beautiful journey to explore the connection between our artistic or creative natures with the reality of working with horses and the help they can offer us spiritually.  Our opening conversation links back to Linda Kohanov's interview (aired in Februar), as the two of them created a beautiful book and horse spirit card deck whi...

There are lots of ways that we deliver our wants and needs to the universe and to each other - both verbally and non-verbally.  Ultimately, the power always resides in the present moment - what we do today will impact us and all those we touch tomorrow.  We cannot change the past, but if we are still hauling outdated ideas, or bad ones around with us, we need to know when to reach out, how, and wh...

The continued conversation with Linda Kohanov does include some EXPLICIT material that you may not want your children to hear.  We were both in tears at the end of this journey as she shared a powerful experience she had with her horse, Noche, and her community in Arizona when it was time for him to pass over - you will not want to miss this teaching.  I was deeply moved by this story & you wi...
