The Best Horse Sense

When planning for this week’s show with Penelope Trunk, my theme was about being vulnerable. As usual, I started the show with a horse story. This week’s story was about putting myself in a situation with a horse where I was the vulnerable partner.
I chose this topic because Penelope is often brutally honest about her own perceived [...]

If you have listened to one of my shows, you have heard that moving and haunting intro music. This week, I talk to Stewart Raven Smith who wrote and performed that little piece.
I asked Stewart to be on the show because we connected music and horses in a couple of ways. First of all, skills that [...]

 
I read a post on Seth Godin’s blog today that I wanted to reply to on his blog, but I couldn’t figure out how to reply. Maybe he doesn’t need to hear from us, but  I wanted to reply.
Here is a link to Seth’s blog post:

Square one is underrated

About a month ago, I wrote a post about how we like to celebrate numbers with a pattern, like 12:34:56 7/8/9. Or it’s fun to watch an odometer change from 99,999 to 100,000. (See that post here) I implied that we are all a little silly for liking to see "interesting" numbers.
So, what do I do tonight? Right [...]

When I interviewed Rabbi Shai Specht on my radio show a few weeks ago, he taught me about angels. Reb Shai said that in hebrew, the word for "angel" is often translated as "messenger." I learned that anyone or anything that brings you a message you need to hear is an angel.
An angel tapped me on [...]

Catherine Grison and I had fun chatting about meditation, feng shui, and – of course – horses on the Whispered By Horses show this week.
I approached Catherine about being on my show because she wrote a blog post about "How to (Not) Meditate." She said that it’s possible to try too hard to meditate. She also said [...]

Sarah Robinson calls herself the Maverick Mom. Here is what she says on her blog http://www.themaverickmom.com:
What I know now is that this small blog has a very BIG JOB to do – actually two big jobs: 1) serve as witness my own “escape” from the world of mediocrity – both personally and professionally and 2) inspire others [...]

 About a month ago, I received a Tweet that said,
"It’s 12:34:56 7/8/9! It only happens once!"
Some else wrote back that actually it happened twice, both AM and PM. And I pointed out that it happened twice in each of the 24 time zones around the world.
That was on July 8, 2009. But there are large parts of the [...]
