Two Minds, One Mission

At Horse of a Different Color, what I do is pretty simple…
I help people understand what’s going on in their horse’s brain.

Because once you understand that, everything starts to change.

You start to see why your horse is doing what they’re doing…
why something worked one day and didn’t the next…
and what to do in the moment instead of guessing.

That’s where better communication, more confidence, and a real connection start to come together.

 

Meet Jenn Currie

 

Jenn Currie has been riding horses since before she could walk—literally. Raised in a horse-centered home, she developed a deep connection with horses from the start. From an early age, she worked with young horses, building a strong foundation in colt starting and early development. She spent over a decade taking professional riding lessons as a child and continued learning from respected mentors who helped shape her thoughtful, well-rounded approach to horsemanship. She didn’t just grow up with horses—she grew with them.



Jenn enjoys spending time riding outside the arena—trail riding, working through obstacles, and competing in versatility and ranch-style challenges, where both horse and rider are tested in real-world situations.



Jenn holds both undergraduate and graduate degrees in Elementary Education and Early Childhood and has spent over 30 years in the classroom teaching and working with students. Her deep understanding of how the brain learns—and how that impacts behavior—became the foundation for everything she does today.



Since 2005, Jenn has pursued advanced study in brain-based learning, behavior, and how emotional states impact learning. Over time, she began to see the same patterns she observed in students showing up in horses, leading her to connect her work in education with her work in horsemanship.



Her philosophy is grounded in one powerful truth:
If the brain drives everything, why wouldn’t we want to understand how it works?



In Jenn’s clinics, everything is guided by how the brain actually works.


She teaches from a set of brain principles she uses every day—things like survival being the brain’s first priority, how stress affects learning, and how horses are constantly trying to predict what’s coming next.


From there, Jenn uses a structure—SAFE™—to guide how she works through situations in real time.


When those pieces come together, that’s when you start to see the 7 C’s show up—communication, connection, confidence… not because you forced it, but because the brain is finally in a place where it can learn.


In Jenn’s clinics—Two Minds, One Mission—horse owners spend time understanding what’s going on underneath the behavior.


They talk about the brain, fear, and learning… and then go out and apply it with real horses.


That’s where people start to go, “Oh… now I see it.”
And once you see it, you can’t unsee it.


Riders often say it’s the missing piece.


They leave feeling more confident, more aware, and with a better understanding of both themselves and their horse.


Whether Jenn is working with a first-time rider or someone facing more complex challenges, she does what she’s always done best…
help people see things differently… and help horses feel safe enough to try.

Notables

  

Jenn has spent over 30 years in the classroom teaching and working with students, where she developed a deep understanding of how the brain learns and how that impacts behavior.


She served as a mentor teacher, worked closely with both students and adults, and led numerous speaking engagements for educators, parents, and organizations. She was also recognized multiple times as Teacher of the Year—something that reflects not just her knowledge, but her ability to help others truly understand and apply what they’re learning.


Jenn went on to co-author U-Turn Teaching with Dr. Rich Allen and studied extensively under both Dr. Rich Allen and Dr. Eric Jensen, a world-renowned leader in brain-based learning.


She has since brought that work into the horse world—speaking at events such as Equine Affaire and Horse World Expo, competing in the Equine Affaire Versatility Challenge, and working with riders and horses across a variety of situations. Jenn is often sought out to help navigate behavior challenges, bringing clarity and understanding to situations that can otherwise feel overwhelming.


She has also been featured as a guest on platforms such as the Best Horse Practices Podcast (with Jec Ballou) and the Horsing Around Radio Program, where she shares her approach to brain-centered horsemanship with a broader audience.

What sets Jenn apart is not just her understanding of the science, but her ability to apply it in real time—and to make it usable and understandable for everyday horse owners and riders.

 

What We Offer

 

I work with riders in a few different ways, depending on what you need.


Clinics & Workshops
This is where it all comes together. In my Two Minds, One Mission clinics, we talk about what’s going on in the brain… and then we go out and apply it with real horses. Groundwork, obstacles, riding—it’s all there, and it all has a purpose. This is where people start to go, “Oh… now I get it.”



One-on-One Work
If you’re dealing with something specific or just want more individualized help, I’ll work with you and your horse right where you are. No fluff—just figuring out what’s going on and helping you move forward.



Learning Resources
I also share what I’m doing through videos, posts, and other content so you can keep learning in between. A lot of people follow along that way and start seeing things differently just from watching.
