In this episode of Soul of Travel, Season 6: Women's Wisdom + Mindful Travel, presented by @journeywoman_original, Christine hosts a soulful conversation with Greta Matos.

Greta is deeply committed to a life of intentional relationship with Earth, Horse and Soul. With her family and herd, she composes a life in the heart of Patagonia, where she is devoted to soulful relationship with human and non-human kin. Within her organization CuraKuda, she nurtures spaces where the wild essence of the horse, human and earth can encounter their shared language. Working mostly with herds at liberty, her work deepens the natural capacity to flow and evolve authentically with all that exists within the unknown. Greta’s approach integrates a lifetime of learning from and relating with horses and our shared earth body - and weaves together tools, techniques and approaches that have been gathered and cultivated from a diverse range of teachers. In all aspects of her work, from the field to the boardroom, she nurtures the inner transformation of individuals and collectives as they embody a more responsive, creative, and collaborative relationship with Earth, ancestors, one another and future generations. Greta is a writer, a mother, a soul friend and a dedicated spirit.

Christine and Greta discuss:

· Reconnecting with roots and purpose as the compass for personal and professional growth

· Embracing joy, vulnerability, and authenticity as the foundation of mindful leadership

· Allowing business to be “fully human” by integrating heart, compassion, and lived experience
