The way of the rider is through the mind. Unlock your full potential with Horseology!
Why me?
I am Kelly Williams, and over the last twenty years, I have seen it all when it comes to horses and their riders, and I have made all the mistakes there are to make on my journey as horsewomen!
It's ok. We're human and must understand how our horse thinks and why so often, WE are the problem. No judgment: it is part of our journey, so...if you want to get past yourself, erase the fear and frustrations that bind you. See what all the fuss is!
Why do you have the audacity to call yourself the Horseologist? Well, because I can! Haha, no, really, I have come to understand that it is our mind and our horse's mind that fuels the relationship between horse and rider.
This is especially true if you have been in an accident with your horse. The shackles of fear that bind you are so frightening and difficult to get rid of that you end up stuck, scared and nothing seems to work. I know, I've been there, and I came out the other side with a system that uses Neuroscience, Psychology, and downright stubborn determination to get control of that "take-over Zombie" that is our mind and gain the upper hand.
A Story About Reinvention and a Disappearing Way of Life
Kelly G. Williams has had the unique opportunity to experience firsthand the journey that transformed a small Virginia company into one of the largest food distributors in America. In 2007, a series of events necessitated a major life shift.
Her new path would lead to open spaces, tangles of barbed wire, and the sweat, dust, and tears of cattle ranching. To commemorate her life transition, she wrote The Princess Rancher. Her memoir serves as an ode to the age-old tradition of the men and women who toil every day to put beef on our tables. It is a story of risk, reward, and reinvention that captures a disappearing American way of life. You can find it on www.amazon.com or www.bn.com
What they are saying about The Princess Rancher
I wasn't born into ranching. Before I ever learned to ride a horse, I spent most of my time globe-trotting and living an easy life.
Circumstances changed and suddenly my easy life seemed to vanish overnight. But a new path emerged filled with wide open spaces, tangles of barbed wire, and the dust, sweat, and tears of cattle ranching. Through it all my love of food and horses has remained constant, and my memoir serves as an ode to the ages-old tradition of the men and women who toil from sun-up to sun-down to put beef on our dinner tables.

Wow, great story, especially from a woman's point of view. I never realized the "process of raising cattle' and all the things, good and bad, in getting them to market. The story is informative, sad, funny, and courageous, especially as she makes the transition from "Princess" to "Rancher." It is an easy read, and I didn't want it to end; I hope there will be a continuation of Kelly's story; I am following her blog, which is that.

Women Rule! Kudos to Kelly for having the courage to tackle this incredibly fickle industry! I have long fantasized about getting into the agricultural business but had brushed it aside as just a pipe dream. After reading Kelly's book...I just might reconsider.
