What if the fleeting thoughts you have about your animal companion aren't random at all?

What if that sudden knowing, that gut feeling, that image that pops into your mind—is actually them communicating with you?

In this deeply moving conversation, I sit down with Davey-Lee Pergentile, animal communicator and author, to explore the sacred connection between humans and animals—a bond that transcends words, and even death itself.

✨ In This Episode, You'll Discover:

• How YOU are already communicating with your animals (without even knowing it)

• Why some soul connections run impossibly deep—and what that means

• The profound messages animals share during end-of-life transitions

• How our beloved companions continue reaching out from the other side

• Real stories of healing, closure, and unconditional love that will move you to tears

Both Davey-Lee and I will share incredible stories—including Vinny the cat who awakened his human's intuitive gifts, and Lovey's powerful crossing that brought messages for those left behind.

This isn't just about talking to animals. It's about understanding soul contracts, honoring the grief that proves how deeply we loved, and recognizing that some connections are meant to transform us forever.

If you've ever:

• Felt inexplicably connected to an animal

• Grieved a pet and wondered if they knew how much you loved them

• Sensed their presence after they were gone

• Wanted to communicate more deeply with the animals in your life

...this episode will meet you exactly where you are.

Whether you're navigating loss, seeking deeper connection, or simply curious about the mysterious ways our animals guide us—this episode will change how you see every purr, nuzzle, and knowing glance.

Forever Free
“As we say farewell, please feel no sorrow, for time on this earth, we only borrow. Lucky was I, my heart had a home, and with you by my side, I felt not alone. You filled my life with happiness and light; my soul shall remain eternally bright. Love cannot end; it cannot disappear. I will always be with you, I will always be near. And now that my journey has come to its end, please know and take comfort in this, my friend. For me, for my life, please do not grieve for now I remain forever free.”

I dedicate this episode to all my horses, both here and gone. For without you, I would not be the person I am or understand the depth of unconditional love.

What happens when the universe forces you to confront everything you've been avoiding? When loss becomes the catalyst for the most profound transformation of your life?

In this raw and deeply personal episode, I share the story of Lovey—my beloved horse whose sudden, tragic death shattered me and simultaneously set me free.

This isn't just a story about losing a horse. It's about:

• The moment a herd's invisible architecture collapsed when one horse left
• A fatal accident that mirrored the fractures in my own life
• The rage, grief, and spiritual reckoning that followed
• My Shaman experiences - A white owl's message in the darkness and Zor at my door
• How horses serve as spirit guides, cracking us open when we're finally ready

I talk about trauma loops, authenticity, manifestation, and what it really means to stand outside the body of who you used to be and finally see clearly.

This episode contains:

• The full story of what happened that Tuesday evening
• The symbolic meaning behind Lovey's injuries (and my own)
• Joey's transformation from "attacker" to shaman
• Blue's complete shift after Lovey's passing
• Zor's dream visitation
• The white owl that appeared days later
• Why I believe everything—even the unbearable—happens for a reason

If you've ever wondered whether your animals are trying to tell you something... they are.

And sometimes, their final gift is the truth you've been too afraid to face.

With deep respect for the journey,
Caroline

Horses are incredibly intuitive, emotional beings—and when they live in a healthy herd, the bonds they form run deep. They rely on one another for safety, companionship, comfort, and connection. So when a change is coming—especially one involving separation—they feel it. Often before we’ve even said a word.

Recently, we began preparing for two of our horses to leave the herd. And before any changes in their routine were made, the herd knew. Their energy shifted. We noticed anxiety, restlessness, and even sadness. They were picking up not only on the subtle signs around them, but on us. Our own internal stress was being mirrored back through their behavior.

That’s the power of connection—heart coherence and nervous system connection.
Our horses are so bonded to us that they feel what we feel. They sense our thoughts, emotions, and expectations—even before we act on them.

But when we consciously shifted our emotional state—letting go of worry and stepping into peace, presence, and support—they responded in kind. The anxiety settled. Their curiosity returned. They became more relaxed. It was a powerful reminder that how we show up for them during change can either increase their stress or support their healing.

We’ve also taken steps to help them prepare practically and emotionally. Rather than suddenly removing two horses from the herd, we’re making gradual turnout changes and shifting stalls. This helps reduce the dependency on current relationships and gives time for change to be accepted and space for new bonds to form. We’re also spending more time communicating with each horse individually—strengthening the human-horse connection through presence and trust.

The two horses who are leaving have been together before—they once lived away from the herd for a year and returned as a bonded pair. Reuniting them now helps them remember that partnership, so they feel supported as they transition again.

Meanwhile, the remaining herd is already beginning to reshape. Horses like Lovey and Leeta, Lovey and Blue, Callen and Joey—all have unique relationships. And as the dynamic changes, we see new bonds forming, new leadership roles emerging, and a quiet reweaving of the herd’s emotional fabric.

This is the emotional side of horsemanship we don’t often talk about—but it matters. Horses don’t just “adjust.” They feel. And when we slow down, listen, and lead from a place of compassion, we help them move through transition with confidence and connection.

There is so much great information these days about horses, from equine psychology, to individual nature, learned behaviors, science-based evidence, training styles, practices and methods. How do you know which one to follow and use on your horse?

I’m not only going to break the process down regarding who to follow, I’m going to give you real science to support your decision when selecting the right one, the best practice for your horse.

Doesn't matter what type of horse you have, young, old, traumatized or needing to be re-started. Doesn't matter what discipline you practice, age, breed or level of experience you and your horse have.

This information is for ALL horses and works for ALL horses because it is ABOUT the horse. How the horse feels, thinks, learns, heals and most of all what the horse needs and wants most as a family member (your family), partner and learner.

I always welcome questions so please email them to me at Caroline@taoofhorsemanship.com. You can ask during the live podcast and I might not be able to get to them. Questions are answered “first come, first served.”

Welcome to Everything Horses & More! Podcast and my guest, Sheri Scurr.

Sheri resides in Boulder, Montana, where she provides transformative equine-assisted experiential learning, equine-assisted therapy, and horsemanship coaching at her ranch, Heart Connections Horsemanship, LLC. www.hchorsemanship.com and https://www.facebook.com/heartconnectionshorsemanship.

This podcast will take you down the rabbit hole of enlightenment, personal discovery, transformation, and healing. We will discuss perfectionism and how it affects our personal lives and horsemanship goals.

This subject is near and dear to many of us and is a common problem with type A, highly motivated (driven) personalities. I am one of those type A personalities. I look forward to discussing how I manage my drive and the difference between drive and perfectionism.

Join us as we unravel perfectionistic paralysis and explore the real reasons we're afraid of making mistakes with our horses.
