A lifelong equestrian, Warwick initially focused his competitive efforts on reining, eventually becoming an NRHA (National Reining Horse Association) Reserve World Champion and representing Australia at the 2010 & 2018 World Equestrian games. Along the way, Warwick not only discovered a passion and a talent for teaching, but he also became aware of a consuming curiosity about how things can be done differently. For the past 13 has been sharing knowledge in his online video library, social media and his Youtube Channel, which has amassed over 27 million views. A chance encounter with a horse 7 years ago that shifted his perspective on horses and life a complete 180 degrees, he is now excited about teaching connection and relationship based interactions and training with horses. An offshoot of that caused him to start The Journey On Podcast, where he interviews amazing people from around the world and learns about the path that led them to a perspective that may fall outside of our cultural and societal conditioning. The Journey On Podcast has amassed over 3 million downs and has spawned an annual Live Podcast Summit event on 3 continents.Warwick is also the author of The Principles Of Training, which has been an Amazon best selling book in the Equine category.Warwick's Book:The Principles of Training: Understanding The Relationship Between You and Your Horse, and Why Effective Training Works.Connect with Warwick Schiller:YouTubeFacebookwww.warwickschiller.comSend us a message.

For more than thirty years, she has been known for her intuitive understanding of the sentient nature of horses and her ability to infuse her art with their spiritual energy.

Shalyce grew up riding horses in the mountains of AZ, beginning with a Welsh pony she fell in love with, who died when Shalyce was 8-years old.Adolescence and young adulthood took her away from horses as she pursued a degree in human development, got married and had six children who she dedicated her early adulthood to. With three babies under four years of age, Shalyce earned her master’s degree in educational psychology. Always in the back of her mind was her desire to open an equine therapy facility. Instead, she began teaching online psychology and human development classes so that she could stay home with her kids while also homeschooling them.Three months after her sixth child was born, Shalyce adopted a mustang from the Canon City facility, with no idea what she was getting herself into. Life then taught her how little she knew about horses and about our mind and behaviors. Her mustang, Silveny, and a later mustang named Freedom, became her lifeline through some incredibly difficult experiences, and they became the best teachers of her life.Shalyce continues teaching psychology classes online, supporting her kids—who are now all in public school, and sharing the lessons learned from her mustangs. She is still aiming to work with horses to help humans. Although, it seems it may be unfolding differently than she originally envisioned.Book Shalyce Mentioned:The Illusion of Money: Why Chasing Money Is Stopping You from Receiving ItConnect with Shalyce:Instagram: the.touch.of.a.mustangFacebook: The Touch of a MustangX: The Touch of a MustangTikTok: The Touch of a MustangEmail: thetouchofamustang@gmail.comWebsite: Thetouchofamustang.comSend us a message.

Cameron has lead a pretty eclectic life filled with diverse experiences, marked by his passion for advocacy, creativity, and a drive to make the world a better place. The grandson of a Virginia coal miner, Cameron's journey began when he joined the Army National Guard, something he felt he needed to do from the time he was young and watched the Twin Towers fall. From there he interned for Congressman Jeff Denham, gaining valuable insights into the workings of politics. But the tides were pulling him in a different direction. Embracing his creative side, Cameron took a leap of faith and moved to New York where he spent several years as a theater actor, starring in a wide range of plays, from the comedic one act "Pet Lawyer" to the intense and brutal "Prophet: the Story of Nat Turner".While his show business aspirations were taking shape, Cameron's life took an unexpected turn when an abused Tennessee Walking Horse named Awesome Gal entered his life. Rescued from a horrible situation, Cameron and his mom worked together to rehabilitate Awesome Gal which forever altered the course of his life. The bond that formed between Cameron and Awesome Gal became a source of inspiration, leading him to create a film centered around Awesome Gal's journey of resilience and redemption. This film not only touched the hearts of viewers but also garnered critical acclaim, earning an impressive twelve awardsBut Awesome Gal had another effect on Cameron: She awakened in him burning drive to make a difference in the world. Cameron dove head first into political advocacy by authoring the groundbreaking Veterans for Mustangs Act (HR 726), which is currently before Congress. This legislation aims to save both our veterans and our wild mustangs.  Learn more about and contact Cameron at:Email:veteransformustangs@gmail.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/veterans4mustangsSend us a message.
