This episode features an enlightening conversation with Nafissa Shireen, an entrepreneur and non-business business coach who employs an innovative approach to personal and professional development by working with horses. Ariane, the host, explores Nafissa's unique methodology, focusing on how horses contribute to learning and healing processes beyond traditional riding practices. Nafissa shares insights into her life-changing journey from corporate success to finding her passion in equine-facilitated learning and coaching. She discusses the therapeutic and transformative impact horses have on people by helping them address deep-seated issues, improve nonverbal communication, and develop leadership qualities. The ranch, Believe and See, becomes a backdrop for discussions on self-actualization, overcoming fears, setting boundaries, and aligning with one’s purpose. This episode not only sheds light on the powerful human-animal bond but also offers inspiration for those seeking to make significant life changes or understand the nuances of equine-assisted activities.
