When they approached me with this program, Above & Beyond, I was thinking: this thing with horses, shovelling clouds and rainbows, whatever… I decided to give it a shot...
Best decision I’ve ever made. In my entire life, this is the best decision I have made. Ever.

I was feeling depleted in many areas of my life. I felt a deep sense of loss of purpose. I was on autopilot “busy doing” and I was taking care of everything except me. This course helped me to see what true self care is. It’s not just exercise or healthy food. It’s a holistic routine of managing life through intention and choice. I hit a different level of growth, a different level of understanding, of being. It changed my life dramatically.

What People are Saying about Horse Sense North:

It is very seldom that I recommend non-Indigenous practitioners. It is even less likely that I refer to anyone as an ally. However, in the case of Carmen Theobald and her work at Horse Sense North, I can unreservedly support and elevate her as both an ally and a practitioner of great quality. Her unbridled devotion to learning her place in the complexity of Indigenous/Canadian relationships, her continued journey in elevating Indigenous voices, and in modelling the journey involved in true reconciliation, Carmen lightens my load as an Indigenous Educator tremendously.
— Kelly Brownbill, Indigenous Educator and Consultant
What a delight to have Carmen come train our staff team on the 5 roles of the Master Herder. If you’re feeling a bit stale and need to develop new neural pathways, this is for you! I could see the recognition and connections registering on people’s faces as she presented a very tangible way of considering leadership, how we need all 5 roles and the challenges of each. It was fun, it was interactive, it was truly thought provoking. I would highly recommend Carmen Theobald’s facilitation skills, fresh style, and content to any organization, corporate or non-profit interested in leadership development.
— Hannah Lin, Executive Director of YWCA Muskoka
