Client Testimonials

Kelli Wallace, Fort Collins, CO
"WOW!! We had a 5-star experience with Dawn and Julie during our Family Equine Facilitation Adventure! Prior to this experience, I had participated in Dawn's Dream Builder Program as well as attended her retreats. This was the first opportunity for me to include my family of four in one of her programs. I knew we would be in for a treat, but once again Dawn far exceeded my expectations!

The guided experiences with the horses, Drifter and Cowboy, were meaningful and impactful. I love that after each exercise we had time to share and reflect as a group. Dawn and Julie fostered meaningful conversations about being present, the importance of personal space and respecting boundaries, and exuding confidence that inspires leadership. Those conversations have continued since we returned home.

The facility we were in was beautiful and everything was well-appointed. The weather was a little chilly on the day of our session so they had heated seats, blankets and standing heaters ready to go. They even had snacks for the all of us, a pro-move much appreciated by parents. The lessons we learned from over 1,000 lb. horses and our facilitators, Dawn and Julie, were priceless. We are grateful for the truly original, meaningful and authentic day we had with them and highly recommend the adventure to all families!"

"Dawn is a gift of a coach. She is calm and gentle and I feel like I can trust her with my most vulnerable emotions. She holds space for her clients with such empathy and grace and guides you to find your truth. The experiential Gestalt and sharing contact with the horse made the lessons I take with me unforgettable."

Patricia Y., Quilcene, WA
"Dawn is a compassionate, open-hearted, supportive individual who is born for coaching and creating safe space for clients to lay open their pain because she's been there and survived and is a force to be reckoned with as a result."
Ashley L., Parker, CO
"Dawn has become an amazing coach during the EGCM program. I observed Dawn coach a polarity piece in the round pen. She was in contact with her client the whole time and trusted her intuition. She paced herself really well and asked really good co-active questions. The transformation in Dawn's client was priceless!

Dawn has positive energy that is contagious to those around her. She is loving, authentic and empathetic to everyone she meets. She lights up a room when she walks in. She is a natural Gestaltist!"
Annie, ND
"Dawn, you seem to work with the deepest parts of me. You hold amazing space and you not only honored my sadness in one of the most devastating losses of my life, you honored Angie and the connection and friendship Angie and I once had. Thanks for walking me through my grief piece with grace and ease. You did amazingly well. Thank you!"

Dr. Cheryl G., Phoenix, AZ
"Dawn is a highly skilled Equine FacilitatorTM! In just one 15-minute session in a round pen with a horse, Dawn helped me discover the importance of being mindful of how I show up in the world. She helped me discover my inner strength and confidence, and believe in myself as a leader. Thanks to Dawn and her equine partner, I am no longer 'making myself small!' You are in good hands with Dawn! She will adeptly guide you, coach you, and teach you in a gentle, yet profound manner!"

Unbridled
I love the look of horses in the wild
Head high, face to the wind
Eyes afire - nostrils flaring — Unbridled

Hooves sending sand flying to shroud the desert sun
Long mane tangled and streaming
With a life all its own — Unbridled

To laugh, to play, to run and dance
To share the joy of living with love
For those who touch the unspoiled places — Unbridled

The spirit, the wild, the open spaces
Exalting and free
That's where my heart aspires to be — Unbridled
