Can a horse really teach you about stress, success, and self-sabotage? 🐴
In this episode of the Taking the Weird Out of Woo Podcast (TWOW Podcast), skeptic Kim Peine steps into the arena with equine behavior specialist West Taylor to discover how horses mirror our nervous system — and reveal why we often freeze, panic, or sabotage ourselves just as we’re about to break through.
✨ Using a simple tarp that terrifies wild mustangs, West shows Kim how the horse’s natural fear response is the same survival mechanism humans experience when faced with growth, change, or success. Just like the horse, we may avoid, run, or shut down when expansion feels “unsafe.”
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:How horses reflect subconscious survival patterns in humans
Why success and abundance can feel threatening to the brain
Practical tools to rewire your nervous system for calm and clarity
What to do when fear shows up disguised as logic or perfectionism
How to stop self-sabotage and finally step into growth
