    Ep. 107: Revisiting Equusology

    Many of us have heard of and even sorted ourselves using the Myers-Briggs Personality Test to better understand ourselves and our partners. But did you know you can now test your horses? Join Melisa and Dane today as they break down the meaning of their own Myers-Briggs results and how Melisa translated this understanding into her book, Equusology, co-written with Caroline Fitzpatrick. Typology helps us better understand and get along with others, so why not apply it to our equine relationships? Listen in to learn how you can do just that!

Five stars but i give 4!!

Thank you for all you have created in the space of horses healing humans! I have experienced profound understanding from your precious podcast. My request is that you include more examples of what the horses do and how the practitioners interpret the behavior of the healer. That being my view, I am so very thankful for all the little tidbits of interpretation you do share . Much love.

More on the subject, please

The episode I listened to took nine minutes of personal updates to get to the topic, which then was only tangentially applied to working with horses.
