Welcome here! My name is Kylie and my role at NOËLLE FLOYD is to enhance your learning through connecting with our instructors and other NF+ members. Here are a few guidelines for making the most of your time here:
Be kind. Lead by example and engage with the tone and energy you would like to receive back. Let’s make this community a good place to be!
Empathy always. Take a moment to put yourself in the other person’s shoes and engage conversations in ways that you would personally find helpful. Also embrace empathy for the horses as well. They benefit greatly when we strive to see the world through their eyes.
Make generous assumptions* (about other people’s intentions). We believe that, in most cases, riders are doing the best they can with the information they currently have. If we are all going to learn and do better, we need to be allowed to ask questions and work through the messy parts without needing to be perfect.
*Note: To learn more about making generous assumptions, check out the video “SuperSoul Sessions: The Anatomy of Trust” on www.brenebrown.com/videosBe excellent with your words. This guideline is a nod to “The Four Agreements” by Miguel Ruiz but the summary is this: speak with integrity. Say only what you mean and avoid using words to speak against yourself or others. Use the power of your word in the direction of truth and love.
That’s it for now! If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to us directly or send us an email at info@noellefloyd.com. Thanks for being here. ❤️
