Hello there. I'm Beth Lauren Parrish.

I'm here to remind you of your inner power.

So many of us can get caught up in a swirl of other people's opinions, negative self-talk, and self-doubt.

It's time to truly begin to trust yourself, so you can step into the amazing life you so deserve.

Everything I present to the world has been created with the utmost care, compassion, and creativity for humans and their incredible horses.

I've been through numerous setbacks, (see below) which set me on a journey of exploring the best solutions possible for my clients.

I now have a proven system to build up confidence in a steady way, one stride at a time.

Read on to learn more...

Have you ever felt the breath of a horse blow into your ear?

Did you get the chills or at least smile a little?

That’s the feeling I’d love for you to cultivate when it comes to your horse time.

Those little moments that can so often be overlooked when you’re rushing about.

I want to encourage you to slow down, trust your intuition, and listen to your horse.

There is magic in this way of being.

Inspired Riding®: A unique system for Heart-Based Equestrians

As an Inspired Rider, you are encouraged to follow your heart, your intuition, and be receptive to what your horse needs in each moment.

This will allow you to feel empowered AND become the rider your horse can trust!

Who doesn't want that??

The process of becoming an Inspired Rider is simple, but not easy. It’s about developing a state of awareness that allows you to understand what is going on with yourself and your horse at the same time.

Within this system, you will become more confident in understanding how to assist your horse, so you may become the ultimate dance partners for each other.

I truly believe that most horses have incredibly generous hearts and absolutely love to show us what it’s like to move like them.

As you will see below, not only am I an insatiable learner, I've also had a ton of life experience.

I've discovered ways to help those who have a burning desire for changes to occur in their lives. 

I'm also known as a 'Change Instigator'. Don't be scared though...

I deeply understand how challenging change can be. I'm here to support you, one stride at a time.

Please reach out with any questions. You can email me here or find me in the Facebook group.

May the horse be with you. Always.
