How important is support throughout a career change? This is the thread that runs through this podcast interview with Jessica Snape-Burns, who shares her 10-year journey with Amerron Acres. Themes during Jessica’s interview include getting to know her horses, the work that she does, and some of the challenges she has faced including chronic health conditions and a spinal CSF leak.

Jessica Snape-Burns on changing careers

I think that you'll find this interview particularly valuable if you:


  • are thinking about turning your hobby into a career

  • live with chronic health issues, or have done in the past

  • feel that it's difficult managing everything on your own

  • are trying to balance family life with other responsibilities

  • have an interest in Equine Facilitated Learning (EFL)

  • enjoy learning about horses (and goats!) in general


“There’s something about being in a horse's presence that makes me feel calm and one hundred percent myself, which I haven’t found anywhere else as easily.”

At the end of the interview, Jessica asks you a question and offers really helpful advice too.
