Dear Kuriakin, thank you for your kind words. You seem to be able to grasp most of the messages in this chapter. I smiled about your Tyrant. πŸ™‚

It is my hope (and Raven’s also) that skeptics will come along. I know I’ve been one for a long time. But when I see results in my life and others, how can we not believe?

As for William? Time will tell as you follow along in future stories. πŸ˜‰

Thanks for reading! I hope if you haven’t subscribed, you will.

Marylee, this piece captures the quiet power of connectionβ€”between people, horses, and the landβ€”with such richness it’s like feeling the sun warm your skin through the page.

Raven’s blend of shamanism and psychology reminds me of the time I tried to meditate but ended up having a full-blown conversation with my inner critic (spoiler: it explains why I have The Tyrant as a character in my essays).

Do you think her approach could resonate with skeptics, or is it more for those ready to hear what lies beneath the surface?

I loved the moment when Raven saw healing as understanding the wholeβ€”it’s a philosophy that feels as expansive as her ranch itself.

And speaking of horse people, I imagine explaining holistic approaches to them might feel like convincing my dad quinoa isn’t fancy birdseed. Did William ever show up to that demonstration?
