most people.
LET'S GET TO WORK
You have a vision for your future. One in which you build a successful business around Equine Assisted Therapy and Learning, that fulfills your desire to support people in need of healing. A business that provides consistent income to support you and your family, while you do what you love.
Whether you are new to the EAP/L field, or are a seasoned practitioner looking to expand your role as business owner in this unique field, we are here to guide you. You will learn the foundations for building a successful and sustainable business, and will feel confident in running your own.
More importantly, you will gain the knowledge and skills needed for running an EAP/L business, which has unique needs. You will learn from business owners in the EAP/L field who have run successful businesses of their own, using principles and methods that are unique to the field itself.
The learning curve can be frustrating, time consuming and costly.
The Business Building Master Class was created to help you build the business of your dreams, without the expensive lessons that many new business owners in this field learn along the way.
Shannon Sikes-Knapp of Horse Sense of the Carolinas and Bettina Shultz-Jobe of Natural Lifemanship will guide you throughout the entire business building process, from developing your vision and mission, to completing and implementing a detailed business plan.
Shannon and Bettina have found tremendous passion and success in helping equine-assisted practitioners just like YOU build businesses across the country and throughout the world! And they would love to help make your business dream a profitable and sustainable reality.
Whether you seek a solid business foundation in the EAP/L field, are hoping to book your first client, or are looking to scale your EAP/L business, we meet you where you are and guide you to success.
You likely know how hard it is to make a living in this industry, with the average person staying in this business of EAP/L for only 2 years. But through this class, you’ll learn what works, from two successful EAP business owners who have maintained their own businesses for over 2 decades!

You will be expected to attend every class virtually on specific Wednesdays (dates below) beginning January 13, 2021 and going through April 28th, 2021.
