Hi and welcome to the Purposeful Parent Podcast.  Today we are talking with Lauren Crocker.  Lauren’s true passion lies in her non-profit,  Saddled Souls. This equine-centered oasis is focused on helping children with disabilities and special needs. Equine therapy has been shown to teach kids many skills from improving balance and coordination to building confidence to setting boundaries, and many other skills.  Through gentle interaction with horses, children with disabilities can experience a sense of freedom and physical freedom that is not always attainable in other therapies. As a single mom, Lauren's dedication to making a difference in her community is truly inspiring.
