Terri Jay believes that we are all born with intuitive abilities. Intuition is just one part of the other spiritual senses of clairvoyance, clairsentience, claircognizance and clairaudience. Together they allow us to pick up on Higher vibrations. Physics tell us that everything in the Universe has a vibration or frequency. Terri shares us that we are all like big cell phone towers, able to receive and relay information from the Universe. We all have the option of developing our spiritual senses to pick up on these higher vibrations. Terri Jay is a unique individual that has taken it to the nth degree. Terri learned early on in her quest for spiritual development to have no ego, no stake in the outcome of a session and no judgment on the information that was coming through. She learned to just get out of her own way and no thinking allowed – just feel for the information and relay it.

FOR OVER 30 YEARS, Terri has helped thousands of people with their financial, relationship, and health issues. She started out wanting to just learn to communicate with pets, including horses, but Source had other plans. She has also taught thousands of others how to develop their spiritual senses in her one-day intensive Cowgirl Shaman© Boot Camps.

Terri calls herself a Cowgirl Shaman© because she has been a life-long horsewoman and her work involves healing, whether physical, emotional, or mental. She is one of only a handful of individuals who can do remote viewing and sensing to help locate lost pets, find gold, and water on maps, and even help with real estate decisions through remote inspections. She has diagnosed problems with vehicles when she has no mechanical ability and helped a computer software engineer with code writing issues with no knowledge of this field whatsoever.

Terri’s unique skills, compassion, kindness, down-to-Earth demeanor, and hilarious sense of humor make her a natural for her own show. This show will provide hope and healing in this time of chaos.

Sue's journey with horses began at the age of 12 and continued until she left for college. With a Primary Honours Degree in Science, she later pursued a Higher Diploma in Counselling and Psychotherapy, leading her into youth advocacy, child care, and child protection roles with organizations such as the ISPCC, YAP Ireland, Le Chéile Mentoring, and Llamau in Wales. She also holds a Postgraduate Diploma in Education from UWE Bristol and worked in teaching until becoming a parent.

As a mother of four children with varying additional needs, Sue found herself seeking support outside of the HSE system. She turned to private Equine Assisted Occupational Therapy (EAOT) services for early intervention when her children were just two and four years old. This powerful experience reignited her connection with horses and inspired a new direction in her life.

In 2022, Sue completed the QQI Level 6 Therapeutic Riding Coach course with Festina Lente and earned her BHS Stage 2 qualifications. By March 2023, she launched her own Equine Assisted Service, built on the principles of empathy, accessibility, and lived experience. Her personal and professional journey led her to co-create EquiSense—a service born from a desire to offer the kind of transformative support her own family once received.
