Join Todd and Bettijo as transformational coach Siarra Decomi reveals how the parts of yourself you try to "fix" are the actual keys to your personal freedom, proving that your scary breakdown might actually be a breakthrough—all thanks to the incredible insight of rescued mustangs!

SUMMARY

This week, Todd and Bettijo sit down with transformational coach Siarra Decomi, founder of Wild Hooves Open Hearts, a non-profit dedicated to mustang rescue and equine-guided empowerment. Siarra helps people stop white-knuckling life by showing them how to come home to themselves. She dives into the profound idea that your toughest challenges might not mean you are "broken," but that you're in a "portal"—a season of change where your breakdown is a breakthrough moment, leading to growth and personal freedom.

The conversation explores the fascinating world of equine therapy, where horses act as a powerful mirror and reflection, sensing human energy and helping people get out of their overthinking minds and drop into their bodies to be present. Todd, a former horse owner himself, shares a funny, yet telling, story about his horse, Sailor, proving just how intuitively intelligent these animals are. Siarra shares the heartbreaking reality of the Bureau of Land Management's process for wild American mustangs and why she felt called to begin her rescue work.
