OUR HUMAN & HORSE HERD: a symphony of hooves & HEARTS

JODY NIXON, FOUNDER & EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

Jody Lemser Nixon has been a proponet of horses for as long as her memories allow. Horses have been supporting her throughout her life. Always helping her growth and mental well-being, even when she wasn’t as aware. She has been certified to teach children to ride since 1987. However, in 2013, she discovered her true passion with horses, Equine Energy Exhanges. They were born out of the Eponaquest Method she learned from Linda Kohanov. 


Jody finds that you need only be present in mind and body to connect deeply with horses. The horses speak in metaphors; it’s our job to listen and learn about ourselves. Jody helps facilitate these sessions so the client has a truly meaningful and enlightened experience. Jody uses her knowledge and training as an Advanced Eponaquest International Instructor, a Constellation Coach and her Infinite Possibilities Coaching to help with any struggles you may be facing. 

CAROLYN FOX, SECRETARY

Carolyn Fox, horsewoman, mother and midwife lives with her husband, three children and a menagerie of horses, dogs, cats and a pig on a ranch in Norwood, Colorado. Carolyn loves to work with horses from the ground up, to ride and most importantly, to spend time hanging out with the herd.  Horses have taught Carolyn the invaluable work of staying in one’s heart.  It is in our hearts where we find our inner truth, our connection to spirit and our place in nature.  A great believer in the power of horses to heal humans, Carolyn supports the work of connecting humans and horses in her daily life and through organizations such as Metaphorse.
