Calling All Lead Mares – The Time is Now!
Let’s face it! The last seven months have been turbulent, full of uncertainty and wreaking havoc on our “giddy up.” It is time to call in the cavalry (not the dashing uniformed men, but rather their daring and courageous horses). Representing 56 million years of evolution as prey animals, horses know a thing or two about reading their environment and managing their giddy up.
Join us for the WBN October 28th Power Hour breakfast. You will experience a virtual live horse meditation that will help you to connect with your Inner Lead Mare. She knows exactly how to keep you safe, in tune with what is really going on and ground you so that the leader in you can shine.
As WBN Herd members, we have all been spooked yet we saddled up regardless. Let’s take the time to acknowledge and celebrate our individual and collective courage. The horses are brilliant at this. Come and be people whispered!

Marlene Armstrong & Maureen Donoghue, Unbridled Coaching
Marlene Armstrong
Marlene Armstrong has had a passion for horses as far back as she can remember. She always knew that they were very special beings that could heal your soul and assist you in finding your true self. She immediately recognized Equus Coaching as a tremendous opportunity to help others and resolved to bring it to the Nation’s Capital. Marlene owns Foxview Stables in Ottawa, where she offers Equus coaching to teams, executives and individuals. Her eldest daughter, Jenna, manages the daily operations of the boarding side of Foxview Stables and offers horse training and coaching to her clients, while her youngest daughter, Morgan, is an Equine Veterinarian.
“Seeing how much this is contributing to people’s self-esteem and self-awareness is incredibly rewarding.”
Maureen Donoghue
Maureen Donoghue’s main focus for the last 30 years has revolved around helping others in their personal and professional development. She has taught with a separate school board, as well as designed, delivered and evaluated technical and professional development programs for the Canadian Federal Government. She also established a national network of organization development specialists and developed and implemented human resource strategies for wide-scale organizational transitions. Maureen also managed program evaluation and public opinion functions for a federal crown corporation.
“I sincerely feel this is something that people really want and need. The effects are immediate and lasting. It offers something beyond what is traditionally available. It transforms people.”
