Susan BorutzkiSusan Borutzki has always felt at home being with animals and in nature. She is a certified Life Coach and Equine Learning Facilitator / Coach, coming to this “encore career” from a highly technical first career. She has a deep appreciation of how being fully present with horses opens us to our quiet inner wisdom, creating space for self-discovery. And this experience fosters a sense of connection and joy too! Her roles include being the “cat lady”, as she has the primary responsibility for our 2 cute barn kitties. Susan co-leads the Silver Stirrups equine program for seniors and has a private practice which supports clients in their personal growth and well-being.
