Stable Connections the Podcast: Recent Episodes
Shonna Berk
Do you ever wonder how someone got to where they are? How they overcame struggles or who some of their inspirations might have been along the way?
Stable connections is my quest in flipping the conversation to focus more on the things we have in common as individuals, as well as a community. This podcast offers a space for personal perspective and creates room for both the speaker and the listener to share, learn, and process together.
Each person featured is asked "What is something you'd like to see evolve or change within the community and how can you help create that change. Stay tuned!

Hey, I’m Shonna Berk; creator, editor, and interviewer of Stable Connections, the podcast.
I believe in the power of conversation. By listening, we open the door to learning and by communicating, we open the door to connection.
I’ve spent most of my childhood and adult life within the horse community, whether that was A circuit hunter jumper shows, traveling as a groom for Cavalia’s Odysseo, or currently running my own business as a body worker. Within my years of experience I have felt more emphases put on the differences and less on the commonalities.
Stable connections the Podcast is my quest in flipping the conversation to focus more on the things we have in common as individuals, as well as a community.
Stable connections offers a space for personal perspective and creates room for both the speaker and listener to share, learn, and process together.
Some of the guests interviewed, I’ve known personally for years and others I’ve never met. At the end of each conversation I’m surprised and humbled by how much can be learned by simply listening and I am reminded that we are all here doing the best we can with the cards we are dealt.
Community requires collaboration and participation. I invite you to be part of each episode by liking, commenting, and sharing on both Instagram and Facebook. New Episodes will be available every Monday morning starting January 2022.
Let’s keep the conversations going! If you or someone you know would like to be a guest on stable connections the podcast, please email stableconnections.sb@gmail.com
Thank you for listening!
