I grew up learning about horse's whorls (or whirls or swirls) and have always found them fascinating! One of the first things I always do when I meet a horse is to check out their whorls (and their ears and their profile and their eyes, their chin, etc.)
Because of this fascination, I was pretty excited to chat with Noce Miller. Miller is the author of Understanding Horse Whorls.
Miller says: "Looking at whorls is a time honored method of judging a horse’s temperament.
Long held as superstition, there is science to back it up. Hair and brain are formed from the same fetal cell layer. Because they form at the same time it makes sense that as a fetus develops the hair growing over the brain, and body, can shows signs of what is going on underneath."

Daniel Dauphin is a horse trainer with a mechanical engineer's mind, the research drive of a scientist, an entrepreneur's spirit, and a compassionate, quick wit.
While researching Amy Skinner, I found Dauphin's podcast called Adult Onset Horsemanship. I reached out to him about connecting on this podcast after he posted this article which starts:
Feel Free to Share. Maybe we'll make a difference and help some horses.
"A Foamy Mouth is a Wet Mouth, and a Wet Mouth is a Good Mouth"
The foamy mouth speaks volumes and for multiple reasons is a huge red flag. If you’re completely sure that I am wrong, please be brave enough to read out my logical argument and your far superior argument will not be challenged at all. Your horse is worth the time and you’ve nothing to lose. So, find out how big of a fool I am."
I knew I had to speak with him!
Dauphin offers clinics across the U.S. and training at his farm in Louisiana. He also offers online coaching and consultations. You can find Dauphin on Facebook here and his Facebook group called Bits, Spurs, And Good Sense, and at dauphinhorsemanship.com

A 'bumblebee path-style' conversation with horse trainer and coach, Amy Skinner. From Amy's website: "Amy Skinner embraces a training philosophy based in Classical Dressage and sound horsemanship practices. Amy keeps the best interest of horse and rider in mind, choosing to avoid fads and quick fixes, but to seek continual learning from the best teacher: the horse."
Amy and I discuss topics including
✔️ Horses in the age of social media and short attention spans
✔️ Writing and creative license
✔️ Wearing the hats of professional, mother, friend and student
✔️ Self-care practices, including meditation and breath work
✔️ The yeas and nays of training horses with treats, rope halters, lungeing, and the one thing horses need to trailer successfully
