  • Jason reads a recent poem he wrote over some chill guitar playing in the background

    ~
    Eluded by time
    swept away
    as the hound tracks
    the scent of
    a raccoon through the trees
    be easy on
    yourself
    for the unraveling
    is taking place
    Thousands of years
    to this moment
    Conditioned to believe
    What is belief
    but confidence in
    unknowing
    Know yourself
    not what you've been told
    but who you truly are
    Repeat Love
    as if a broken record
    plays about the symphony of
    your destiny
    one which isn't destined
    at all
    but rather
    free to choose
    the path aligned with the
    strongest scent
    Believe to
    Live
    ~

  • Peggy Okelly began her career in San Francisco as a CPA with KPMG Peat Marwick. In 1990 with two young girls in tow she moved back to her hometown in the Napa Valley and founded St. Helena Olive Oil Co. After 25 years of growing the business, Peggy suffered a Traumatic Brain Injury rendering her a stranger to herself.

    Having little access to her executive functioning, Peggy listened to the cues of her body leading her on a path of mind/body/spirit connection. Along the way she gathered teachings from healers of all medicines. Peggy's most profound healer continues to be Roxy, a Warmblood Mare, who she met while recovering in the Eastern Sierras of California. Their mutual struggle with disregulated nervous systems created an immediate and powerful connection. With no specific intention other than to share insights from her healing journey with Roxy, Peggy found herself delving into a profound exploration of the human-horse connection. Together, they learned to befriend and tend to their biology leading to deeper healing and connection.

    In gratitude, Peggy created Congruence Tucson, a place to share and hold the space for other human and horse awakenings to the healing power of their true nature.

  • Kathy Moffatt is an Equine Experiential Learning Facilitator, Transformational Life Coach, Reiki Practitioner, and writer.

    Although loving horses all her life, her real involvement began in the mid 90's when she and her husband bought a farm. Embodied horses then appeared.

    Her love of learning brought her down a path of becoming a student of riding, horsemanship, and stable management. She was particularly drawn to dressage where she studied and competed for a time. Competition though was really not for her, it was the art of riding and the horse connection that she loved most.

    As life challenges presented, a cancer diagnosis, the death of her mother, and her youngest son struggling with addiction, Kathy found herself going to the horses. Sitting on a rock, the horses would come and hold space. It was her therapy. She knew there was something profound about this. What was this feeling, this felt sense, this connection?

    Her curiosity and intuition lead her to a stable practicing equine assisted learning with children at risk. She became witness to a profound interaction with a beautiful elder mare and a young man. It became a sudden knowing that this was what she was supposed to be doing. She did not need words, she knew what it was, she knew what she needed to do.

    Kathy quit her corporate job, researched programs, and became a student.
    She a picked a program based on attunement to emotions, the honouring of horse as a partner, neuroscience and profound connection to spirit through shamanic practices.

    It is all about energetic connection.
    Kathy launched her practice in 2022. She combines the horse connection with other energetic modalities like Reiki, sound bathing, forest bathing, and yoga all done in partnership with horses and nature.

    She is currently working on a book about a “Mothers Journey Through Adoption, Addiction, Finding Healing and Purpose through horses.”

  • From a very young age horses have been THE passion in Kathy’s life. Even though Kathy grew up in the suburbs of London with totally a non-horsey family, somehow the love of the horse was always the most powerful thing in her life.

    Kathy comes from a scientific background gaining a BSc (Hons) degree in Zoology. Her mindset then was always based on the scientific paradigm of you had to be able to “measure it, replicate it and explain it” for it to be true. If those criteria where in place, she was happy. If they weren’t she didn’t want to know.

    That was until in 2003 when with her horse Midnight she went to a horsemanship clinic with clinician Len Judd. For her this clinic was the moment of transformation, a spiritual experience that changed her life.

    From that weekend forward, as she stepped into and embraced the world of energy and connection, her need for scientific explanation fell away and her mind set became
    “My Experience is my Truth.”

    Now 21 years on, after many years of studying energy, quantum physics, healing, spirituality and training in several energetic modalities, Kathy is well-established in her own work which she calls Point of Balance.

    Through this purely energetic work her aim is to help the person or animal she is working with move back into balance at all levels - physical, mental, emotional and spiritual.
    This move back to balance not only helps them to heal themselves, but also helps them realise their unique power and potential.

    Kathy knows categorically that is the horse that has not only led her to the wonderful people around her today, but also continues to lead her into deeper and deeper insights of the fundamental aspects of this World and indeed The Universe, namely that everything is energy and everything is connected.

    Kathy’s work includes carrying out sessions in person and at distance with both people and animals, and she feels so blessed and grateful to have clients both people and animals, all over the world.

  • Rupert is the creative force behind Horse Boy, Rowan is his mentor, teacher and muse. Together all aspects of Horse Boy begin and from there the wider team helps to develop each aspect.

    Rupert Isaacson was born in 1967 in London to a South African mother and Zimbabwean father, and grew up half in London, half on a remote horse farm in the British countryside and also with Africa looming large in his life. Coming from a family of pioneers and adventurers – Russian Jews who went to Africa on his father’s side, British, Dutch and mixed race settlers on his mother’s side – Rupert’s grandparents were journalists, war correspondents, cattle ranchers and artists. His father is an architect and his mother a sculptor.

    So making your own destiny is something he grew up with. A journalist for the British and American press from the early 1990s (Daily and Sunday Telegraph, Daily Mail, Mail on Sunday, Independent on Sunday, Esquire, National Geographic, Conde Nast Traveller – among others), he has also published several guidebooks to Africa and India, and is he author of three non-fictional memoirs: The Healing Land (a New York Times Notable Book), which tells the story of his family in Africa, and of his own time spent living with the Bushmen of the Kalahari Desert; The Horse Boy (a New York Times and Sunday Times bestseller), which tells the story of his journey across Mongolia on horseback with his autistic son Rowan; and The Long Ride Home, which tells of the three subsequent healing journeys he and his son made to Africa, Australia and the Navajo Reservation, as well as his discovery of how horses can help autism and special needs in general.

    Rupert also runs the Horse Boy Foundation, from his New Trails ranch near Austin, Texas, which offers services to autism families, and helps direct several satellite centers offering similar services in North America and Europe.

    In partnership with Iliane Lorenz he also teaches Horse Boy Method, Horse Boy Learning (a homeschool technique aimed at autism, ADD and ADHD families among others), and other kinetic learning techniques, along with Stress Free Dressage, a way of introducing riders to the higher levels of equitation without being screamed at(!).

    A successful documentary filmmaker – The Horse Boy and Endangerous – and write and conceiver of reality TV shows (The Quest – which aired on ABC in 2014 – was his original concept and he helped produce the show), and in addition his mainstream Hollywood projects include The Horse Boy feature film and The Goth Lords.

    A career in human rights runs parallel to all this. In 2004 he founded the Indigenous Land Rights Fund, which helps hunting and gathering tribes gain legal title to their ancestral land and which helped the Bushmen of Botswana win the largest land claim in African history in 2006 – as a result of which he is now banned from Botswana (!).

    Finally there is his first love – horses both cross country riding, and classical dressage (he works closely with the Valenca Family in Portugal and studies with Christian Bachinger of the Spanish Riding School of Vienna). A small time breeder of Lusitano horses, Rupert relaxes by reading historical novels, planting trees and drinking beer, especially IPAs. He quite likes wine too. And food.

  • Kim McElroy has been drawn to horses since childhood, and as soon as she could hold a crayon, this manifested as her art. For more than thirty years, she has been known for her intuitive understanding of the sentient nature of horses and her ability to infuse her art with their spiritual energy. She distills this energy into expressions of the horses' quintessential essence in ways that transcend how they are traditionally defined. Through her incredible mastery of pastels, and her talent in writing about her visionary insights, she conveys the power and beauty of the horse’s form—yet more than that, she offers us a timeless glimpse of its soul.

    In 2000, Kim and her husband, Rod, created SkyeLandeSea sanctuary in Washington State, where they provided loving forever homes to rescue horses and a menagerie of other animals. Their sanctuary is now home to a resident herd of wild but well-fed deer, and two capricious house cats.

    Kim is the co-author and illustrator of the upcoming Fall 2024 release The Council of Horses Oracle Card Deck and Guidebook, and illustrator and co-creator of Way of the Horse: Equine Archetypes for Self-Discovery Card Deck and Guidebook by Linda Kohanov.
