The Open Range

Shame is a dark prison that we create for ourselves when we choose to hold back parts of ourselves in order to protect ourselves from more harm, but in attempts to protect ourself we create disarray and disharmony in our lives, our relationship’s and our body.

But what if we were to finally share that shame in a safe space with friend or family member?

What if those people held space with loving empathy, kindness and grace?

What if instead of being met with rejection we were met with acceptance and people said, "me too!"

Maybe, just maybe, we would actually get to loosen the grip that shame has on us and those cell walls would start to crumble.

In this week’s episode Ro shares with us how she’s releasing her shackles of shame and how they led her to this very place of exploring equine connection

This is a raw, real and very vulnerable episode that highlights the intimate details of Ro's journey. She discusses things like mental health diagnoses, stigmatisation, victimisation, hospitalisation, inner child work and so much more!

Hello my little darlin's and welcome to Mouth to Muzzle the podcast, I'm your host and & horsewoman, Ro

At "Mouth to Muzzle" we explore the profound connection between humans and the herd, delving into the wisdom that can be gained from our equine companions. In a world where we often find ourselves disconnected from nature and each other, horses offer us a unique opportunity to reconnect, to rediscover our instincts, and to learn valuable lessons about communication, leadership, and empathy.

I believe in the power of storytelling to inspire, educate, and connect and I'm dedicated to bring you the voices and experiences of horsewomen and men from all walks of life. Each episode will feature captivating narratives and insightful anecdotes shared by individuals who have forged deep bonds with horses, whether through years of dedicated horsemanship or through transformative moments of connection

Whether it's a tale of overcoming fear in the saddle, finding solace in the quiet companionship of a horse, or experiencing moments of pure joy and exhilaration amidst a herd, each story is a testament to the profound connection between humans and horses. By sharing these narratives, we hope to foster a sense of community and belonging among our listeners, reminding us all that we are part of something greater than ourselves

Join us as we embark on a journey of discovery, guided by the wisdom of the herd and the power of storytelling. Together, we'll explore the depths of human-horse connection, celebrating the diverse experiences and perspectives that enrich our shared love for these magnificent creatures. Because in the end, it's not just about the destination—it's about the stories we gather along the way, and the connections we forge with each other along the path from mouth to muzzle.

Saddle up, take hold of the reins, cinch up your boots, because we're about to embark on a bumpy ride that is exhilarating, and full of thought provoking revelations. This podcast is your ticket to the rodeo of knowledge and inspiration! 🤠

In this week's episode, I speak with renowned horse trainer, Warwick Schiller. Warwick's perspectives, teachings and trainings have undoubtedly shaped the horsemanship industry at large. In this episode Warwick shares his heart posture of humility, his commitment to his vulnerability, and his courage to lean into his purpose. In this conversation we discuss many amazing personal truths within Warwick's journey, from his childhood, to what he believes connection is and also what led him from stepping away from the sport and leaning into what he has now coined and is personally known for; attunement and the relationship building of the profound connection that humans share with the herd.
