SoulBodyHorse celebrates the horse-human connection and the power of our equine friends to change our lives and understanding of "how things are." We look at the rational and irrational, experimental and the experienced, the science and the spiritual. We believe in the power of stories, in digging deeper, pushing further, and asking the oft-unsaid question. Join host, Meredith Crawford, as our guests unpack our relationship with the soul, the body, and the horse. Thanks for listening!
