This experience led Susan to establish a sanctuary that not only provides a safe haven for such horses but also offers therapeutic programs for people seeking healing and growth. Beyond her work with horses, Susan is passionate about sustainable living and environmental stewardship. She attended the Earthship Academy in Taos, New Mexico, and volunteered in building sustainable structures, integrating these principles into the sanctuary's mission.
