Best Self

Best Self – Programs for Organizations & Community Groups

At Wild Eagle, we believe every person has the ability to grow into their best self. That’s why we partner with organizations, schools, and community groups to deliver experiential programs that build confidence, resilience, and transferable life skills.

Flea

Resolve

Flea is a 22-year-old mare I started as a teenager. Sensitive and strong-willed, she once intimidated me — until I learned her greatest gift: if I bring force, she resists, but with calm resolve she softens and responds.

She reminds us that resolve isn’t about power, but about standing grounded in who we are. Each time she faces up, her question is simple: “Are you resolved today?”

Riley

Listening

Riley came to me with quirks that made her resistant if I pushed too hard. But when I slowed down and listened for her smallest cues, she responded with trust and ease.

She teaches that listening creates connection. Forcing things too soon builds resistance, but when we pause and act at the right moment, progress flows naturally.

Murphy

Inner Alignment

With Murphy, I learned riding wasn’t about proving myself, but trusting myself. If I was unsettled, she went through the motions. When I showed up calm and aligned, she opened a deeper, almost spiritual connection.

Murphy teaches that everything we need is already within us. When we trust ourselves, authentic connection follows.

Cinnamon

Patience

Cinnamon is gentle and steady, moving at her own pace. If pushed or rushed, she resists — but when given time and space, everything flows with ease.

She teaches that patience builds trust. Slowing down doesn’t mean losing progress; it creates the foundation that carries us forward.

Soma

Authenticity

Soma was trained in precision, but her real lesson isn’t about performance — it’s about being real. With her, it’s not about proving or perfecting; it’s about stepping out of your comfort zone and showing up as yourself.
She teaches that growth doesn’t come from pretending, but from being true to who we are.

Pal

Gentleness

Pal may look imposing, but beneath his strong exterior is a gentle heart. When approached with calmness and respect, he reveals a sweet, trustworthy nature.

He teaches that strength and gentleness can coexist. First impressions don’t tell the whole story — when we soften, trust and connection flourish.

Cher

Consistency

Cher is steady, reliable, and grounded — the kind of horse you can always count on. She isn’t flashy or demanding; her gift is her constancy.

She teaches that true strength is found in steadiness and reliability — in being the kind of presence others can trust.

Tex

Assertiveness

Tex is sweet and willing, but she also carries a spark that asks for clarity. If you’re unsure, she’ll test you; if you’re firm but fair, she’ll follow with respect.

She teaches that assertiveness builds trust. Clear, confident leadership — and the courage to stand tall — invite respect and connection.
