Can a horse take the place of your therapist? Well, perhaps we shouldn't go that far since we're a big fan of therapy over here... In this episode, Nicole is joined by Dr. Ashley Dial who shares how horses serve as powerful therapeutic partners in her coaching practice. Plot twist: Nicole worked with Dr. Dial and shares a bit about her firsthand experience working with the horses. Today they discuss:

• Depth psychology and developing a relationship with your unconscious psyche to guide healing.
• Burnout and its relationship with trauma cycles.
• How horses mirror human's emotions.
• The horse-human bond and the healing that can result.
• Nicole's favorite horse, Gator, and his struggle with confidence.
• Converted bus life on the "Cowgirl Caravan".
• The healing power of female friendships and why they get a bad rep.

Whether you're seeking greater confidence or simply horse-curious, this conversation offers a glimpse into a fascinating approach to wellness that combines ancient wisdom with modern psychology.
