STRIDES:Core Group Mentorship
A 6-month mentorship program for equine professionals ready to operate as CEOs and build a thriving, sustainable business that supports their income and their nervous system.
There comes a stage where effort is no longer the problem.
You’re skilled.
You’re experienced.
You care deeply about the horses and the people you serve.
Your business works—on paper.
And yet:
You’re carrying more than your current business structure can support.
You’re constantly recalibrating pricing, boundaries, your schedule, and your energy, without a stable foundation underneath it.
You’re making high-impact decisions alone, without real strategic support.
At this level, it’s not about working harder. It’s about building differently.
STRIDES: Core is where you shift from being the labor inside your business to becoming the architect of it.
When you lead as the CEO of your business, it stops running you and starts supporting you.
STRIDES: Core is a mentorship container designed to help equine professionals stabilize their work, clarify key decisions, and build sustainability without burning themselves out.
It’s where professionals come when what used to work no longer does.
STRIDES: Core Is For Equine Professional Who…
Care deeply about the quality of their work and want their business model to match that standard
Are booked or growing, but feel stretched thin, overextended, or responsible for holding everything together
Find themselves constantly adjusting pricing, policies, boundaries, or schedules without a clear operational structure
- Are making high-level decisions about capacity, offers, or direction without strategic partnership
Are confident in their skills, but are hitting capacity, doubt, or early burnout and recognize that pushing harder is not the solution
Are ready to examine and rebuild how they operate, not just add more clients
STRIDES: Core is not for…
- Professionals looking for a quick fix without structural change
- Those unwilling to evaluate their current pricing, boundaries, or workload
- Passive participants who want information without implementation
- Anyone unwilling to confront the habits that are contributing to their current reality
Inside STRIDES: Core We Focus On…
Stabilizing workload and capacity — So your schedule reflects your actual energy, not just demand.
Clarifying boundaries, pricing, and decision-making — You’ll stop renegotiating your rates, your policies, and your standards every month.
Reducing quiet overwhelm and second-guessing— So decisions are made from structure and strategy, not urgency.
Building a business that supports your nervous system, not just your income — Through sustainable scheduling, clear offers, and operational structure that doesn’t rely solely on your output.
This is practical, grounded work.
We address the real mechanics of how you operate, and we refine them over time.
What Students Say
“STRIDES: Core was the first program that didn’t tell me to hustle harder. It showed me where my business was actually leaking energy and money. I raised my prices, simplified my schedule, and finally feel like I’m running my practice instead of reacting to it.”
“I came into STRIDES: Core exhausted and second-guessing everything. I left with a clear structure for my work, better boundaries with clients, and a business model that fits my body and my life. This was about sustainability, not just strategy.”
“I’ve taken other business courses, but none of them understood the equine industry the way this does. STRIDES: Core spoke directly to the reality of barn life, travel, physical labor, and emotional load. It changed how I think about my role as a professional.”
“This program didn’t give me a cookie-cutter formula. It helped me build a business that actually fits how I work with horses and humans. I finally have systems that support me instead of drain me.”
You’ll Walk Away With…
- The confidence to lead as the CEO of your business instead of carrying it as labor
- A business model that supports both your nervous system and your income
- Pricing and boundaries you can stand behind without renegotiating them monthly
- A more stable operational structure that supports consistent income from your dream clients
- A clearer, more sustainable workload that turns burnout into ease
- Stronger decision-making rooted in strategy instead of urgency
- Greater clarity around your offers, capacity, and direction that sets you up for growth
STRIDES: Core is the foundational professional container for equine practitioners building—or rebuilding—how they work.
Some join at the beginning of their careers. Others join after years of experience when they realize what they built isn’t sustainable.
Both belong here.
STRIDES: Core stabilizes capacity, structure, and decision-making so your work can support the business and life you’re building.

About Meghan
I’ve spent over 20 years working in the equine industry, with my early foundation shaped at Hilltop Farm under Jill Hassler, where I developed a deep respect for how biomechanics, mindset, and connection influence the partnership between horse and human.
My work evolved through riding instruction with PATH International and into massage therapy and equine bodywork, where I built a professional practice beginning in 2007.
Over time, that work expanded into postural alignment and biomechanics, with attention to both tissue and nerve release and how the nervous system governs movement in horses and riders.
My background in psychology, combined with decades of hands-on experience, shaped how I see this industry: as a place where leadership, structure, and sustainability matter just as much as technical skill.
After building a successful practice through lived experience and real-world adaptation, I became passionate about teaching other equine professionals what actually works—so they can create businesses that support them through every phase of growth.
Today, I work with riders, horses, and equestrian facilities across the U.S., and I’m also the founder of the Equestrian Travel Association.
My work is grounded in decades of hands-on experience, psychology, and a deep commitment to sustainable leadership in the equine industry.
What Students Say
“Before STRIDES: Core, I was booked but burned out. Now my schedule makes sense, my pricing makes sense, and my work feels purposeful again. I didn’t just grow my income — I reduced my stress.”
“This mentorship helped me see where I was still working like I did ten years ago, even though my body and business had outgrown that model. STRIDES:Core gave me permission — and a plan — to evolve.”
“I expected business coaching. What I got was leadership training for horse people. The nervous system work, the structure, and the real talk about visibility and authority completely shifted how I show up with clients.”
“STRIDES: Core helped me stop undercharging and over explaining. I communicate more clearly, my clients respect my time, and I feel grounded in my work again. That alone paid for the program.”
