Hi, I’m Maggie.
For nearly two decades, I've been helping people grow through experiences that create lasting change. While my work began in the equestrian world, it has evolved into something much bigger: helping leaders communicate more effectively, build stronger teams, and create organizations where people perform at their best.
As an entrepreneur, I built Strides Riding Academy from the ground up into a seven-figure business serving hundreds of families each year. Along the way, I learned that every challenge in business eventually comes back to leadership and communication. Strong teams don't happen by accident. They are built through trust, clarity, accountability, and the willingness to have the conversations that matter.
Today, I work with executive teams who understand that leadership is one of their greatest competitive advantages. My retreats are designed for organizations that have outgrown traditional leadership development and want an experience that creates measurable improvements in communication, trust, alignment, and decision-making.
What makes this work different is the partnership with horses.
Horses don't respond to titles, job descriptions, or organizational charts. They respond to clarity, consistency, confidence, and authentic communication. Their immediate, honest feedback helps leaders recognize the communication patterns and blind spots that often remain hidden in the workplace. Those insights become practical lessons that leaders can immediately apply back to their organizations.
My goal isn't to provide another inspiring retreat. It's to create an experience that helps executive teams communicate more effectively, strengthen trust, make better decisions, and lead their organizations with greater confidence.
Because when leadership improves at the top, the impact reaches every level of the organization.
Every executive team is different, so every retreat should be too.
Rather than following a standard agenda, I take the time to understand your organization's goals, communication challenges, and leadership priorities. Each experience is thoughtfully designed to create practical insights that strengthen communication, build trust, and improve the way your leadership team works together.
MY APPROACH
Personalized, Not Pre-Packaged
Every executive team faces different challenges. Each retreat is designed around your organization's goals, communication needs, and leadership priorities.
Business-Focused Outcomes
Every activity is connected to practical leadership skills that improve communication, trust, collaboration, and organizational performance.
Experience Before Discussion
People learn best by doing. Real-time experiences create insights that lectures and presentations often cannot.
Lasting Impact
The goal isn't simply to create a memorable retreat, it's to create lasting behavioral change that leaders continue applying long after the experience ends.
