This is Horse Time - a podcast hosted by Carla Lanphear and Emily Anderson - two healers and horse-lovers who strayed from the path of traditional, dominance-based horsemanship, to explore the question - what does it mean to be in true partnership with our horses? A relationship founded in freedom, connection and love.
Evolving Together: Embracing Seasons of Change with Our Horses
Horses are ever-evolving beings who move through phases - from the highs of coming into their own and growing in confidence to times of injury or illness . Being with Horses is about learning to honor each of these phases—and discovering the beauty within them. It’s why we view this work as a spiritual path, one that invites us to grow and transform right alongside our horses.
In this heartfelt catch-up episode, Carla and Emily open up about the seasons their own horses are currently moving through and what these experiences are teaching them. Join them as they explore the good, the hard, and the beautifully unexpected edges of the journey.

Beyond Expectations: How Horses Can Guide Us Into Flow

Welcome back to another episode!
In this episode we talk all about horse care, management, and meeting our horses’ needs.

The Art of Patience: How Slowing Down Helps Us Stay True
Horse Time is back for Season 2! In this episode we illuminate the Being with Horses philosophy for you through some real-time examples from the clinic we hosted in October - namely a block Emily kept running into in her sessions with Arya.

Horses as Mirrors: What Does That Really Mean?
We hear so often that horses are our mirrors, but what does that actually mean? In this episode, Emily and Carla explore what makes horses such powerful mirrors to a person’s inner state of being, how horses often seem to have stories that reflect our own, and why this reflection is so important to receive. Emily shares how her fiery mare Arya has invited her to embody the archetype of the warrior woman and connect to her boldness and power. And Carla shares how Frankie has taught her all about (self)acceptance, inherent self-worth, and unconditional love.

In this episode, Carla and Emily share what it was like for them to stray from the conventional path of dominance-based horsemanship and trust their hearts in guiding them towards a mutual connection with their horses.

How We Got Here
Welcome to the first episode of Horse Time! In this episode, Carla and Emily share their origin stories of how they discovered the Being with Horses philosophy - an approach developed by Sabine Birmann in Germany - that changed their lives and relationships with their horses. Being with Horses is not a method, instead it is a way of life that allows for us to reconnect with our awareness and develop a relationship with our horses founded in freedom, mutual connection, and love. So if you are a horse-lover seeking conversations that offer a different perspective on the horse/human relationship, we invite you to join us on this journey of reflection and discovery.
