The C.A.L.M. Framework for Growth

The C.A.L.M. Framework for Growth

Continuing the backstory that led to launching the Liberated Equestrian Podcast, in this episode I’m digging a little bit more into my return to the horse world in the last decade.

It’s been quite a journey in a relatively short period of time of becoming a second-season equestrian and experiencing everything from the joy of riding again to fulfilling the dream of horse ownership to experiencing the challenges of issues that present when you own a creature you can’t keep in your home never-mind your property.


This episode is truly about providing you with the tools to find your voice and confidence using the C.A.L.M. Framework designed for growth . . . and liberation!


The C.A.L.M. Framework was inspired by my experience as a second-season rider and mental health professional, and laid the foundation for the came the creation of Finding Calm with HorseClass.com. Yes, I needed calm to address my fears and anxiety after two riding accidents. As I used the resources of therapy, including EMDR, and a supportive community – including my trainers – I was able to heal and grow. Truly this was the inspiration behind the liberated equestrian -- I found my voice and I want you to find yours too!


While the course and book is designed to help riders navigate through fear and anxiety, the C.A.L.M. Framework is relevant for all equestrians!


In this episode, I unpack that framework and how to use it in developing your own theory of horsemanship and humanship essential in the pursuit of becoming a liberated equestrian.
