Welcome to my story… I’m Mel McLaren, proud South Aussie, founder of Walk Sublime and the creator of Walking with Horses in Nature™.
I am here sharing my innate ability to be in quiet conversation with horses, for more humans to be able to hear their wisdom.
The chapters of my lived experience tell a tale of finding courage and letting go. Of finding my identity, slowly revealed to me through the solace, healing and joy of being the sole (soul) guardian and carer for six rehomed horses…
Each with his or her own story of healing and self discovery.
Below is the polished PR version – read the real story here.
Beloved ex racehorse Quattro with Mel McLaren, Horse Whisperer & Personal Growth Mentor
The day contracts exchanged unconditionally for the purchase of a run down eighty acre farm, blissfully tucked away in a back valley of the Adelaide Hills, South Australia, was the day I allowed myself to google ‘adopt a Brumby’. I’d been waiting for this moment my whole life. I was forty years old.
Three months later a horse truck picked up a tiny two year old Australian Brumby in northern NSW. En route to SA via southern NSW, a two year old rescued Andalusian cross was loaded into the neighbouring bay. This is how Koszi and Saxon came into each other’s lives first, then together off that truck into my life.
I hadn’t the faintest idea of where we were headed.
Via a journey of personal resilience; from business analyst, project management and sales roles in the incongruous and often brutal corporate world; through immeasurable personal loss and taking on the responsibilities of running my farm solo, came Walking with Horses in Nature™.
Guided by the same sense of connection I found in the practices of Regenerative Agriculture to responsibly manage my land – and through my natural bond with horses – I’m able to offer what has been a transformative experience for me, to others:
The magical realm created when a human and a horse are in quiet conversation together.
‘Deep listening’ through the instinctive art of Horse Whispering.
As you walk alongside my gentle horses, dearly loved individuals with their own stories of renewal, each step echoes our shared tale of courage, healing and self discovery. “A walksublime” is not just a walk with horses – it’s a wellbeing journey inspired by my very real life experience and the lives of six thriving horses.
It’s my pleasure to invite you to walk with us, and tap into not only the peace of the horses, but also the resilience that lies within you.
-Mel, Koszi, Saxon, Kite, Torquey, Quattro & Scout
Together as equals, we are Walk Sublime.
