About this listen
In this powerful and emotional episode, Ingela Larsson Smith and Corrie Sepcich share the story of a traumatized warmblood mare who had become dangerously stressed after a series of intense and inappropriate training methods. Through detailed observation and compassionate leadership, Ingela shows how a few quiet minutes of clarity, presence, and protection can begin to transform even the most overwhelmed horse.
Listeners will learn how unresolved stress builds up in a horse’s nervous system and why forcing a horse to accept pressure can lead to collapse or shut-down. Ingela explains her approach to regulating the nervous system first, rather than training behavior—and how this mirrors the way God leads us gently toward rest, not control.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone facing fear, trauma, or stress—in a horse or in their own heart.
