Follow My TedX Journey

from The Adventure Paradox · host Cat Caldwell Myers

Some moments stick with you — not because you planned for them, but because they show up right when your soul is ready.In this minisode, I share a story from the trail that caught me by surprise. I came across a photo of a Navajo woman named Effie, riding her white horse, Rhythm, against the red canyon walls of Monument Valley. What started as admiration for a beautiful image turned into something much deeper after I met her in person and heard about the nonprofit work she’s part of — and the realities of life on the reservation.She spoke about what it meant to finally have a roof that didn’t leak and the hope of one day having a bathroom in her home. Her words grounded me in gratitude and reminded me how often we overlook the basics.I also read a handwritten letter from my great grandmother in 1919, during a time when horses and cars were both part of everyday life. It brought me back to the role horses have played across generations — not just in our history, but in our healing.This episode is a mix of memory, meaning, and movement — and a little sneak peek into the TEDx talk I’m working on. It’s about horses, of course. And about how much they still belong in our lives.Thanks for riding along with me.Want to stay connected and see what’s next?
