'The outside of the horse reflects the inside of the human.' Kia Ora, my name is Marianne Cotter, I am a facilitator, coach, wife, mother, daughter, sister, friend and life long learner. My life long passion is horses and I have been around these beautiful creatures since I was 9 years old. I just started dreaming about horses as a child and wanting to be near them and understand them, and I was lucky enough to be able to have horses in my life from an early age. I am the owner of 2 beautiful steeds Thomas & Frosty, and belong to a community of passionate horse people that spread the length of Aotearoa/New Zealand. I started this podcast, The Horse/Human Connection - How We Learn From Horses, as I have realised over the years that my horses have taught me way more than I have ever taught them. They have supported me through tough times, taught me to trust, be brave and resilient, to be open to learning, be a community member, to be responsible, to love and they have also given me many gut wrenching laughs over the years. During this first series of the podcast I will be interviewing a range of different and very passionate people who have all had interesting and varied experiences with horses including a top level riding instructor and horse breeder, an Equine Assisted learning facilitator and coach, a vet, a passionate agistment owner, an equestrian manager from a high school and a rider who found her passion late in life. The focus of our conversations will not be on horsemanship as such, but rather what we continuously learn from these beautiful, wise, sentient creatures and how they have supported our wellbeing (body, mind and spirit) dreams, challenges, relationships and our life’s journey. I hope you enjoy listening, learning and reflecting, and it supports you with your own journey to uncover your passions and the journey of lifelong learning.
