- Host: Piper Klemm, publisher of The Plaid Horse
- Guest: Jessica Newman, founder of JustWorld International, grew up as a dedicated equestrian athlete. She began jumping international Grand Prix at the age of 16. But during her successful competition career, she discovered an even greater passion to give back. Jessica began working in the non-profit sector in 1999. Her lifelong connection to an international sporting community, combined with her extensive humanitarian experience, cultivated her unique vision for JustWorld International. The equestrian-driven nonprofit incorporated in 2003 with the goal of uplifting children in some of the world’s most impoverished communities. Today, JustWorld International and its local partners support over 10,000 children in Cambodia, Guatemala, Honduras, and the United States through comprehensive education, healthcare, nutrition and vocational programs. As the Official Charity Partner of the FEI, JustWorld International unites thousands and provides unique opportunities for equestrians to learn, experience, and contribute to a global campaign against poverty. Jessica aims to continue growing JustWorld International and dedicate her life to building a brighter future for children in need.
- Guest: Ada Haensel, M.Ed, CCC-SLP, is the Executive Director of Speaking of Horses, a nonprofit organization dedicated to equine-assisted therapy. Drawing from her speech-language pathology expertise and comprehensive American Hippotherapy Association training, she helps children overcome communication obstacles by combining evidence-based therapeutic techniques with her passion for working with horses.
