When you are doing something you believe in, whether it be writing a story that needs to be told, learning to ride a horse, or learning to love, keep doing it and your experience will pay off. This is perhaps why Harper never gave up on telling the story of\u00a0<em>Still Life with Horses.\u00a0<\/em>She knew it had to be told and that it had the capacity to inspire others. <a href=\"http:\/\/sharonksobotta.podbean.com\/e\/jean-harper-author-of-still-life-with-horses\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Listen to her interview<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0and then pick up this life-changing book!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/sharonksobotta.podbean.com\/e\/jean-harper-author-of-still-life-with-horses\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Direct link to podcast<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jean Harper&#8217;s book may be inspired by the depths of a friendship she formed with a horse, but you don&#8217;t need to be a horse-lover to find meaning in this book.
