About Me

My fondest memories, as my father’s daughter was camping and spending time outside with the dog. These are the times I felt most connected to a sense of purpose and belonging, I would struggle with that in my adult life, trying to put my love of nature into a career that supported me but finding myself side tracked in jobs I thought I should be doing in order to pay my bills.

After spending 18 years in Emergency Services communication, 911 calls & dispatching to Police Officers, being exposed to the traumas that come with that profession, I developed a sleep disorder and adrenal fatigue (21st century Stress Syndrome).
To survive, I started spending more time with my horse, not necessarily riding; there was something about just being with him and reconnecting with nature that settled something inside of me. I found peace and I found my centre away from chaos. I rediscovered just how healing being in nature can be.

This reawakening lead me to get back into nature and into studying in the fields of Herbalism, Wild crafting and a certification in outdoor living skills. My dream of building a fulfilling career based on the power of nature emerged.

My dream started to take shape; a desire to create a space where people could come and remember how to breathe again, through retreats in the mountains, and being surrounded by nature.

My horse felt the need to expand on that dream; I just didn’t really know it, until! I was diagnosed with breast cancer; the emotional & spiritual healing I received from my horse just blew me away. I always knew I felt better when I was around him but in the space he created for me; it finally dawned on me just how powerful and healing it was being in his presence.

Nature and the horses are what brought me back to myself.
