    Kelly Erickson leads Wild Horse Heart Consulting & Creative, where she helps mission-driven teams turn complex ideas into clear plans, simple systems, and meaningful learning experiences.

    At her core she’s a connector of people, ideas, and words, using sketchnotes and visual maps to align teams, invite collaboration, and make hard things easier to talk about.

    She lives in North Central Washington, where she tends a small orchard and keeps a stack of horse books close by.

    Connect with Kelly through her website and on LinkedIn.

    Kathie’s note: I met Kelly through Caveday.org, where she is a guide and a participant. I can't remember which title she was using, haha, the first time I saw her smiling face, but she is known in that community for beaming out a lot of positivity. And I do love a good beam! Plus, she's a multifaceted entrepreneur, so what's not to love?

    Sara Lieberman is a writer and editor with over 20 years of experience in legacy media. Her writing has appeared in The New York Times, The Washington Post, AFAR, Travel + Leisure, and more, and she's edited at The New York Post and The Daily Beast, as well as for a variety of nonfiction lifestyle books.

    In her spare time, she practices yoga, gets lost on hikes, eats, and thinks about eating. She documents much of this on her Substack, Overthinking It, and also helps other people document their own musings as a self-declared Word Doc, also on Substack. Follow her on Instagram @saraglieberman.

    Kathie’s note: Sara is a guide at Caveday.org and at first I thought she was an actual Parisian because her Zoom screen said Sara, Paris. And I wanted to brush up on my high school French, like À quelle heure part le train? or some other useful phrase on Zoom, but then she turned out to be an American in Paris, which is still super cool. Plus she’s fun and definitely has a way with words on her Substack pieces.

    Kathie’s note: Fiona and I were members of a local group of writers called the Coffee Consortium back in the late aughts, early 2010s. A dozen of us, give or take, would meet at the library or a coffeeshop and talk shop, and usually bitch and moan about editors and assignments, hahaha. It was wonderful. Camaraderie is one of my favorite things in life!
