In this episode, I’m joined by the amazing Brianna Ferguson of Evergreen Equine Wellness for a deep and important conversation about navigating the non-negotiables in our horses’ lives—things like vet visits, farrier work, deworming, and more. While these are essential for their health and well-being, they aren’t always easy for every horse.
Brianna and I talk about what these experiences can bring up for horses, the importance of identifying the root causes of their struggles, and, most importantly, how we can truly support them in these situations moving forward. We also dive into how our own energy as their guardians impacts these moments, what having open and honest conversations with the care team can cultivate for everyone, and ways to offer more autonomy (for us all!) even when non-negotiables are at play.
Brianna is an Equine Bodyworker and Hoof Care Provider passionate about guiding horse owners to develop deeper relationships, restore wellness, & seek holistic transformation through consent-based support modalities. Her work has been guided by her herd of four horses who now journey with her in spirit. As a forever student of the horse, her practice is ever-evolving as she learns more about supporting horses and their humans through their holistic health journey.
