  • Rupert Isaacson and Sofia Valenca

    This was the first podcast I have listened to. I have had the pleasure of meeting them both previously. I can not emphasize how important it is to listen to this podcast and soak in what they staying.

    Knowledge is so powerful and we need to remind ourselves to think about what makes us passionate about the horse and live the dream.

    I could go on forever but simply tune in and learn and allow yourselfto awaken.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Black Horse History They Left Out | Louis Hook | LFRF 60
Q: What made you begin this inquiry into West African horse traditions and their historical impact?
Louis Hook explains that his research aims to clean up inaccuracies in history regarding Black peoples' roles in horse cultures, tracing the deep, sustained equestrian traditions across Africa and their influence on global military and cultural histories, which had been erased or minimized in mainstream narratives.
Voices Beyond Words: Helena & Lina Hjalmarsson-Lyons on Autism, Love & Communication | EP 37
Q: What was the point at which Lina's letterboard communication began to take shape?
Lina describes a gradual development where practicing with the letterboard allowed her to formulate and communicate sentences, starting laboriously but progressively becoming more fluent as the process continued.
Stepping Into Strength: Resilient Parenting, Movement, and Healing the Overwhelmed Mind | Dr. Kate Lund | Ep 41
Q: How do you integrate nature and animals into therapeutic work when clinical settings are restrictive?
We use both real and visual representations of nature, plus animal-assisted therapy when possible, and adapt to the setting with virtual work, plant imagery, and nature videos to evoke calm and connection.
Stepping Into Strength: Resilient Parenting, Movement, and Healing the Overwhelmed Mind | Dr. Kate Lund | Ep 41
Q: What role does the Relaxation Response play in your approach to resilience parenting?
It provides a simple, repeatable tool to downregulate the stress response, helping families stay centered and capable of constructive interactions during crises.
Stepping Into Strength: Resilient Parenting, Movement, and Healing the Overwhelmed Mind | Dr. Kate Lund | Ep 41
Q: Can you share how movement has influenced your own resilience and what the science behind it suggests?
Movement activates neuroplasticity through BDNF and fosters social and hormonal changes (like oxytocin) that calm the nervous system, making it easier to engage with challenges and learn new skills.
