What does it really mean to be the best parent you can be? For me, it’s not about perfection — it’s about presence, flexibility, and listening. In this minisode, I’m recording from our dream horse trailer after a beautiful weekend of horse camping, before heading off on a family vacation. Because showing up for my kids means giving them my full attention when it matters most — and carving out time beforehand to speak from the heart.

This episode is for the parents, the seekers, the ones who are walking (or riding) the path of doing things differently. I reflect on what it means to parent with intention, how horses continue to teach us about rhythm and rest, and why we all need to build in space for recovery — even in the middle of the adventure.

Inside this minisode:

• Why I pre-recorded this episode with my kids in mind
• Listening to our children (and their need for rest)
• A glimpse into our upcoming trip to Briar Fest — horse-lover heaven
• Greek mythology, horse evolution, and the wisdom they carry
• A sweet moment with a handwritten note for my daughters
• How parenting, like riding, is all about presence and the long ride

Whether you’re traveling this summer, building a life on your own terms, or simply trying to be present with your kids, I hope this conversation brings you some light, laughter, and a little room to breathe.
