About Us
Who am i?!
Hi there, I'm Sonia - your "tour guide", coach, mentor, visionary and coffee-obsessed leadership support-system. Over the last 20+ years I've been in leadership roles from "lead" to the "C - Suite" and everything in-between.
I understand the ups and downs life can throw at you as well as what it feels like to get "stuck" and need to reassess what is important in life. Sometimes we need a little external support to really get to the bottom of what it is that's holding us back so we can re-set our priorities and move forward with our purpose at the center of everything we do.
Whether it is having deeper personal relationships, breaking old patterns, or starting a brand-new career path, the horses and I are here to help guide you along the way through personal leadership development, business and management consultant services, and customized personal coaching opportunities both in-person and online.
(What's with the horses?! Read on!)
Who are you?!
If you're someone who is feeling stuck, or is considering taking a completely different direction with your life, I get it! Making big changes can be tough and when we make the decision to step through fear or choose a different path, we need all the help and support we can get!
Are you looking at a new career? Perhaps you're feeling stuck in old relationship patterns? Are you trying to find your way after a big loss or have you simply come to a new level of depth and understanding in your life and you now wish to move beyond old patterns.
Everyone has a story to tell, we all walk our own unique path that is full of twists and turns - it's rarely ever boring! Some of these experiences are wonderful, some are painful, but all of them have something to teach us.
If you're struggling with what the lesson is or how to apply it, it can help to take time for yourself, travel to a different destination, gain a new perspective, and seek out external assistance as you find the answers to your questions.
What's with the horses?!
So, what's the deal with the horses?!
Horses are masters at being fully present in the moment. They remind us to be aware, open to change and input, and grounded in ourselves. We can learn how to "shake it off" or "return to grazing" as we call it in the horse world, and they are master teachers at personal boundaries, respect, and honoring ourselves AND those close to us (not one or the other) as our contribution to the health and wellbeing of the herd.
Horses are prey animals and as such, they don't inherently trust us as predatory beings. We must earn their trust. How?! Well - first they require that we show up congruent within ourselves. This means we must be in alignment with our thoughts, feelings, and actions. We can't be lying to ourselves or stuff it down - they'll be on to you! They're VERY sensitive to energy and can feel your presence long before you may have any awareness of them.
Many people refer to horses as "mirrors" as they will often reflect back the behavior you are exhibiting, which gives us a whole new insight into how we are showing up and what our energy is telling those around us. This mirroring effect can aid in shifting stuck energy and removing old thoughts and patterns which no longer serve us. It has also been very helpful and transformative for those who are working through past trauma or moving beyond negative experiences in their childhood that have framed how they interact and view the world as adults.
Horse experience is not required to participate as we do all of the work from the ground and you only interact to your comfort level. They can speak to you from 50 yards away - no joke!

How I Can Help
How I can help you
Horses were my "therapy" as a child, and they also taught me self-leadership, emotional maturity, being present in the moment, and how to balance and ground my energy to show up congruent. I understand and can attest to the healing power of horses and how the environment created by being in their presence can aid us in moving through stuck energy to align with our purpose and reset our priorities so we can focus on our goals.
This horse experience coupled with my 20+ years in healthcare and leadership place me in a unique position where I have been mentoring and guiding others as well as assisting them in working towards their personal and professional goals throughout my career.
Drop me a line below and let me know what challenge you are up against and what your goals are and we can create an experience that is the right fit for you to support your needs.

I look forward to meeting you.
In good health,
~Sonia
