Letters From a Horse began as a passion project, born from a conundrum: I love to write and my being does NOT love the digital world. Sharing small pieces of wisdom brings my heart genuine joy — and yet the world of blogs, algorithms, and social media always felt deeply wrong to me. Soul-level wrong. And so I got stuck, with messages inside me that I desperately wanted to share and no way that felt right to share them.

In an age of anxiety about where technology is taking us, I find myself returning to one certainty: connection is everything. This is my small, deliberate way of offering it.

Each mailing will include a letter, along with a surprise element to nourish your personal growth. Which brings me to Lesson One: perfection is not our goal here, and it never will be. What you will receive is action in all its beautiful imperfection.

As Alice discovered: "It's no use going back to yesterday, because I was a different person then." We are always moving forward. That's rather the point.

“Life is a journey, not a destination.”

Hello! I am Heather — Certified Equine Gestaltist, Ignitor of Joy, and the human behind Letters From a Horse. Through my practice, Wild Wisdom Companions, I work alongside horses and the wisdom of the natural world to help people move through grief, rediscover themselves, and find their way back to being fully present and fully alive. Horses are my partners in this beautiful work.

Sam is at the heart of this letter journey we will be on together, and it is his frank and extraordinary opinions that will arrive in your mailbox each month that will remind you of your potential. This subscription is an extension of everything Wild Wisdom Companions believes: that connection heals, that wisdom can arrive in unexpected forms, and that you are already whole — sometimes you just need a horse to remind you.

Values aren’t something to just list, they are a way of life. They are a road map that keeps us on the path to our highest good, and the highest good of all people we come in contact with. I have 10 core values that I have defined and refer to regularly. (If you are curious about how fully defined values can enhance your experience of life, email me. You won’t regret it!) in going through So as not to bore you, I will only list three here:

Integrity: To live authentically - to know myself, to show up, to be reliable.

Curiosity: To embrace the Gestalt and CANI life - Constant And Never Ending improvement - to always be learning, about myself and this world we live in. To remember that life is an experiment, not to take things too seriously and to remain joyful.

Connection: Partnership, loyalty, togetherness. To walk with the humans of this world in such a way the uplifts all of us. To remain compassionate and joyful on this journey.

Remember when I said that perfection will never be the goal? Values are sometimes hard to live up to, let’s view them as a guide post to living our best lives!
