Caroline Phipps Live Talks

Host by Caroline Phipps - The Founder of Living With Inner Elegance This month's guest: Jane Strong - Co-Founder of The Equus Effect Program Join Caroline Phipps as she welcomes Jane Strong, co-founder of The Equus Effect Program, to explore the remarkable bond between humans and horses. This episode delves into how Jane and her team use horse-assisted learning programs to support veterans, first responders, and healthcare workers as they navigate the complexities of finding meaning and healing in their lives.

Jane shares the impetus behind The Equus Effect's mission. Inspired by the alarming suicide rates among veterans, she and her co-founder, David, created a unique curriculum that leverages horses' intuitive nature. Learn about Jane's transformative journey from a competitive horse rider to a cultural anthropologist and eventually to developing this therapeutic method.

The discussion touches on the profound lessons humans can learn about trust, leadership, and authenticity from horses. Jane passionately explains how horses help participants embody vulnerability, creating trust-based relationships and offering profound personal insights. These insights facilitate personal growth and improve relationships with loved ones, transforming family dynamics.

This episode also explores the broader implications of loneliness and mistrust in society and how The Equus Effect provides a sanctuary for connection and embodiment. Discover how this extraordinary program expands to help children and other groups seeking personal improvement and stress relief.

Whether you're curious about horse therapy or seeking ways to foster more authentic connections in your life, this episode offers enlightening perspectives worth exploring.
