Erin Cain didn't grow up around horses but eventually was exposed to them and the remarkable abilities they have to facilitate healing for a wide range of individuals. A series of life events caused her to move from her native northeast to the Colorado Rockies and today, she's the co-founder, owner, and operator of Grace Reins Equine Therapy. In this episode she describes the personal hardships she's overcome and the work she now does rescuing and “gentling” wild mustangs, then working with these animals to provide therapy to the diverse group of individuals who come to Grace Reins for healing. Chapters: 00:00 Erins's East Coast Roots Host Bill Burke introduces Erin Cain, founder of Grace Reins, a therapeutic horse organization. Erin shares her early life growing up on Long Island in a blue-collar family, far from horses, and how she eventually moved to California. 03:12 Discovering Equine Therapy Erin recounts her first exposure to equine therapy in Connecticut at High Hopes, a major program. 07:22 Grace Reins: Founding & Mission Erin discusses her journey from volunteering at High Hopes to getting certified in therapeutic horsemanship. She details her move to Colorado in 2013 and the eventual establishment of Grace Reins, emphasizing the inspiration she drew from Special Olympics events. 11:12 Rescuing Wild Mustangs Erin introduces her partner Joe and explains how their shared passion for wild mustangs led to their collaboration. She highlights Grace Reins' unique approach of rescuing and gentling wild mustangs, integrating them into their therapy programs. 15:04 The Art of Gentling Wild Horses Erin explains the process of gentling wild mustangs, referencing Monty Roberts' methods of compassionate training. She illustrates how this process teaches respect and patience, which are crucial lessons also applicable to human interaction. 19:05 Mustangs and Human Healing Erin explores the profound connection between rescued mustangs and clients, especially veterans, who find a mirror in these traumatized yet resilient animals. This shared experience of overcoming adversity fosters hope and a sense of worth for both the horses and the individuals. 22:08 Therapy with Veterans & Children Erin details the therapeutic process at Grace Reins, focusing on groundwork, grooming, and non-verbal communication to help clients, including female wounded warriors and children, downregulate and connect with horses. She describes how the horses' slower heartbeats and meditative presence aid in relaxation and emotional regulation. 27:13 Nature's Impact: Beyond the Screen Erin discusses the benefits of children spending time outdoors with horses, moving away from screens and engaging their senses. She highlights how this environment helps children develop emotional regulation and a sense of calm, echoing the concept of nature deficit disorder. 31:05 Personal Resilience & Drive Erin shares a deeply personal story about the loss of her brother, a New York City firefighter, on 9/11, and how this tragedy fuels her dedication to helping others. She connects her experiences with her father's firefighting career and her brother's memory to her empathetic approach in therapeutic work, especially with veterans. 38:01 Finding Equine Therapy Near You Erin discusses the widespread availability of equine therapy and directs listeners to PATH, the Professional Association of Therapeutic Horsemanship, for finding local programs. She also offers to personally assist those seeking therapeutic horsemanship options, emphasizing the global reach of this impactful work.

On this episode of Pigskin & Burnt Ends, host IndyCarTim breaks down a loaded weekend of Texas college football. Houston quarterback Connor Wigman lit up Colorado in a breakout performance, while Arch Manning faced boos at home despite a Texas win over UTEP. SMU rebounded from a tough loss, Texas Tech kept scoring at will, and North Texas stunned Washington State. But the marquee moment came in South Bend, where Mike Elko's Texas A&M Aggies shocked Notre Dame with a late touchdown, snapping years of frustration on the road. Tim explains why this win felt different, what it means for the Aggies' culture, and why the Lone Star State continues to shape the national college football story.This episode is sponsored in part by TicketSmarter:Use promo code LWOS10 to receive $10 off purchases of $100 or moreUse promo code LWOS20 to receive $20 off purchases of $300 or moreThink smarter.

"Cactus Connections"--an off-shoot of Turn Left at the Cactus-- is a lively podcast providing an overview of upcoming events in San Felipe, Baja, Mexico for the fall of 2025.

Listeners can also anticipate the Pete's Camp Poker Run, the Norra 500 off-road race, a Volkswagen car show,the Blues and Arts Festival, and the Wags and Witches Halloween party. A significant portion of the episode is dedicated to an interview with Cara Curfew, organizer of the "Summer Survivor Duck Hunt", a community-building game benefiting local restaurants, culminating in a party at Pete's Camp. The hosts conclude by talking about the annual Shrimp Festival and the San Felipe Song Writers by the Sea Festival, alongside a rumor of a new local brewery, all while welcoming back "snowbirds" for the season.#TurnLeftAtTheCactus#CactusConnection#SanFelipeBaja#SanFelipeEvents#BajaLife#SanFelipeCommunity#BajaCaliforniaMexico#ThingsToDoSanFelipe#SanFelipePodcast#BajaBound
In this week's episode of America on the Road, host Jack Nerad takes a close look at the 2025 Hyundai Elantra Hybrid Limited and walks away thoroughly impressed. This top-tier Elantra hybrid doesn't try to reinvent the compact sedan, but it delivers a balanced blend of premium features, smooth handling, and outstanding efficiency. With a 50 MPG combined rating, dual 10.25-inch digital screens, ventilated front seats, and Hyundai's full suite of advanced safety tech, all for just over $30,000, the stunning hybrid punches well above its class. The dual-clutch transmission offers a more engaging drive than typical hybrids, and the sharp styling gives it a confident, upscale look. It begs the question: Is this the best-value hybrid sedan you can buy? Also in this episode, co-host Chris Teague takes the 2026 Nissan Rogue Platinum out for a week-long spin to see what the top-trim version of the popular compact SUV brings to the asphalt. The answer is: quite a lot. From quilted leather seats and a panoramic moonroof to an intuitive Google-powered infotainment system and advanced ProPILOT Assist 2.1 semi-autonomous tech, this SUV makes a case for itself as a true luxury-lite option. Its overachieving 1.5-liter turbocharged three-cylinder puts out 201 horsepower, while delivering laudable fuel economy. Comfort and convenience are clearly the priorities, with wireless smartphone integration, a premium Bose sound system, and clever cargo solutions among its bag of tricks. But is the Rogue Platinum a high-end bargain or just an over-equipped, over-priced niche vehicle? We'll share our thoughts. This week's special guest is car-builder, DIY expert, and Quaker State influencer Anatalia Villaranda. Known for her energetic presence and hands-on knowledge, Villaranda talks about how she got into cars, her favorite builds, and what it takes to grow a garage-based brand in today's automotive landscape. Whether you're into turning wrenches or just watching builds online, her passion and insights bring a fresh voice to the enthusiast community. Auto News This Week In the news, Tesla's EV market share is slipping, dropping to just 38% in August, its lowest since 2017. With rivals like Hyundai, Toyota, and Volkswagen gaining ground in the EV space through aggressive pricing and fresher lineups, Tesla's once-untouchable lead looks anything but secure. It's a wake-up call for a company that's been slow to refresh its core models while its CEO's attention has drifted elsewhere. Things aren't especially rosy at Ford either. The giant automaker is recalling over 1.5 million vehicles due to defective rear-view cameras that can display blank or distorted images. Affected models span from Mustangs to F-Series trucks, and some units even had cameras supplied by Magna that are now part of a separate, broader recall. It's the latest in a long string of issues that have made Ford the recall leader this year. Mercedes-Benz has completed an historic 749-mile drive from Germany to Sweden using solid-state battery tech. Using lithium-metal cells developed with Factorial Energy, the test highlights how this next-gen battery format could radically improve EV range, performance, and durability. The brand says it aims to bring this breakthrough to production by decade's end. Lexus has unveiled the 2026 IS 350, giving its compact sports sedan a sharper new design, more tech, and upgraded materials. With F Sport trims, forged bamboo accents, and an available 17-speaker Mark Levinson sound system, Lexus is hoping to keep performance-sedan lovers from switching brands. A 311-horsepower V6 and retuned suspension aim to keep things fun behind the wheel. But where's the V8, Chris and Jack ask. In additional Lexus news, Toyota will consolidate Lexus production in Indiana, shifting ES sedan production out of Kentucky in response to tariffs and changing market demands. Some high-end models will return to Japanese factories,
