Terry Murray Discusses “SMART Girls” on the Positive Business Program

The Just For Girls Academy, the Sarasota Manatee Association for Riding Therapy and Performance Transformation, LLC™ collaborate to create the first Equine Facilitated Experiential Learning program in the United States to be adopted as part of a charter school’s core curriculum.

466805_461139157257072_1200375813_o On December 7th, I had the privilege to appear on Patricia Raskin’s Positive Business radio program.  Co-hosts Patricia and MariAnn Snow inquired about our new, collaborative educational development program, SMART Girls.  During the first segment of the show, we explored the emotional, psychological and behavioral benefits a relationship-based approach to Equine Facilitated Experiential Learning can deliver for young girls.

In the second segment of the program, we discuss the neurophysiological dynamics of our approach to leadership development and the positive impact this has in today’s multi-cultural, multi-generational, rapidly changing, global workplace.  We discuss how the introduction of novel, experiential learning, supported by an educationally-based approach to coaching, cultivates organizational fitness and mindful leadership.
