Kali Kiger
I am an author, speaker, and YouTuber. You can find me presenting at places like the Northwest Horse Expo and the High Desert Museum. I have been an equine professional since 2003 and I am a homeschool mom with 3 girls ages 3, 9, and 11. Two of my daughters have PANS and one has dyscalculia, dyslexia, and dysgraphia. I am a survivor of childhood chronic illness and a widow, which has made me an expert on becoming the kind of person who can survive monstrous tragedy. With the same persistence and gentleness that I use to train a wild horse, I help others learn to live like someone left the gate open. Horses are my art medium – they are how I share my understanding of the world with others.
