The Era of Horsewomanship Free Webinar Series

Welcome to The Era of Horsewomanship Free Webinar Series and what we simply refer to as “The Era”.

Every month, Cassandra Ogier will welcome a new guest to explore what it means to live and lead in this era. This is a time of courageous connection, intuitive communication, and the magic of co-creation with our horses and ourselves, through conversations echoing from the deep well of the feminine.

We chose to offer this webinar series to you free because we believe these conversations, rooted in presence, curiosity, and connection, are truly invaluable and a gateway to our collective freedom. This is The Era! If you do feel drawn to explore and embody more deeply, you are warmly invited to take a look at the Embodied Horsewomanship Online course.

Episode 6: Guest Speaker Carla Preiss

Cassandra is joined by Carla Preiss of Being with Horses US and together, they will talk on the era of Horsewomanship as paradigm shift; reclamation of embodied power, what it means to claim and take up space, and trusting intuition and becoming our own authority; confronting the shadow — acknowledging and unlearning harmful behavior and conditioning (for both human and horse), and that confrontation being necessary to move forward in a new way; what it means that there is no goal or destination, just the path, just the present; how Carla leads from this perspective by walking her own walk.
Carla Preiss is deeply committed to shifting the paradigm surrounding horse-human relationships.
Her passion lies in advocating for horses to be seen as the social, soulful beings that they are, and expanding people’s awareness around what’s possible when we move beyond dominance and instead live in true, mutual relationship with our horses.
For the past decade, she has dedicated herself to the Being with Horses philosophy by walking this path with her horse Frankie, and facilitating clinics and individual intensives here in the US. In shorthand, her work could be described as “couples coaching” for humans and their horses, where she holds space for authentic conversations and connections between horses and their humans to unfold, while also teaching concrete relational skills that support the development and deepening of a relationship rooted in mutual respect, understanding, trust, and most of all - love.
Carla holds degrees in Ecopsychology and Counseling Psychology, and alongside her work with humans and horses she works as a licensed psychotherapist in private practice, where she supports clients through trauma recovery, identity exploration, and building a sustainable, values-guided life. She also co-hosts the Horse Time Podcast, and occasionally shares her musings about horse-human relationships in today’s world on her blog or Instagram.
