Bringing the
North Bay Equestrian Community Together

Our Story

Stable Connections started as a space for personal perspective with the Podcast, creating room for both the speaker and listener to share, learn, and process together. 

 

At the end of each conversation, it's not uncommon to feel surprised and humbled by how much can be learned by simply listening and we can be reminded that all of us are doing the best we can with the cards we are dealt.

The Directory and Calendar of Events was created in 2025 and both act as a resource pages for North Bay equestrians.

What Makes Stable Connections the Podcast Different?

Stable Connections host Shonna Berk uses her unique background within the horse world to create comfort and connection with each of her guests.  All interviews are recorded in person, offering the opportunity for true connection.  All episodes are pre-recorded and edited for listener enjoyment, generating the feeling as though you were in the room and part of the conversation.

 

Episodes are approximately one hour, and the interviewee steers the conversation. The conversations are free-flowing and organic, with just one pre-planned question:

“What is something within the community you’d like to see evolve or change,

and how can you help with this change if you’re not already?”

The question is asked with the intent to create curiosity for the listener and influence positive change within the community.
