Unlocking Your Full Potential With Horses - Interview with Merja Sumiloff, by Geoff Tucker, DVM.

Welcome to The Horse's Advocate Podcast Episode 134: "Unlocking Your Full Potential With Horses - A Transformative Interview with Master Mentor And Horsemanship Coach Merja Sumiloff" By Geoff Tucker, DVM. Recorded on August 28, 2024

During my insightful conversation with Merja Sumiloff, we delved into the common thread of emotional blocks from our past that hinder our ability to form meaningful connections with ourselves and our horses. While our experiences may differ, the impact of trauma is a shared human experience. Whether it's a challenging childhood or a difficult relationship, these traumas can create emotional barriers that impede our potential for personal growth and healing.

For instance, my academic journey could have been smoother—I was a mediocre student in high school and a three-time college dropout. However, my experience as a member of our high school football team, which never lost a game, may have instilled in me a determination to succeed. Could these seemingly unrelated events have influenced my eventual graduation from Cornell's vet school?

Merja, with her diverse background, embodies the spirit of self-discovery. Born in Finland, she honed her skills with horses in Ireland and now resides in Australia. She conducts clinics in Finnish and English in person and online, guiding individuals to unearth their horses' hidden strengths and transcend the fear and doubt that often plague horse owners.
