Wisdom from the Herd with Dan Holden

In this episode, we chat with Dan Holden, author of The Accidental Horse Guy, who went from knowing nothing about horses to helping people change their lives with them. Dan shares how working with horses taught him what it really means to be honest and present — and how a special horse named Regalo showed him that you don't need words to build trust. Through the lens of Rainer Maria Rilke's poetry and his mind-body coaching method, Dan challenges our cultural obsession with doing and productivity, inviting us instead to embrace the mysterious process of allowing our future to emerge. When we're confronted by what frightens us, Dan offers his guiding wisdom: stay in the moment, don't stray, and pray. This episode is a sacred invitation to surrender, get out of our own way, and discover the miracles waiting in honest presence.
