Events - Ride, Love Grow Adventures
Ride, Love, Grow Adventures are for those who want to experience personal development growth, especially in the areas of rewiring your emotions and finding the best ways to cope along this journey called life. There will be fellowship and 2 or 3 evenings of teaching! There is no additional charge to taking part in the teaching sessions.
The 1st annual event of Ride, Love, Grow Adventures was held September 2022 in the Rocky Mountains CO at a awesome Dude Ranch. We rode horses and partook in fun activities. We spent quality time on a few of the evenings covering topics that impacted us spiritually as well as emotionally.

One on one Coaching on the trail with JG from TN...
Trying to put into words the profound impact Janet has had in helping me unlock my deepest scars and traumas. Janet's ability to love people where they are at and truly respond in love is something to be desired and admired. I truly believe that she is called to love and help people heal emotional traumas. I'm honored to call her a mentor, something I don't say flippantly. She is consistent in her teaching yet everyone could get something different out of it. Her teaching on Emotional Intelligence was earth shattering for me, while I'm not all of a sudden perfect, I have a profound sense of self awareness which has also given me awareness of others needs that I did not posses before. This awareness has given me an ability to dig deep into my trauma and heal emotional wounds that were popping up into other areas of my life and love others better! I give my thanks to Janet Burquest for opening that door. I highly recommend anyone who is searching or needing more out of life to treat yourself to diving in deep into what she has to offer, because its priceless and it just might help you unlock the door to your best self.

"When I made plans, saved the date & saved money to go to a DUDE RANCH in Colorado, I thought it was about doing all outdoor physical things. I was geared up for what ever the elements had to offer.
However it turned out to be so very much more than just “physical” activities. Not only (Lots of) horse riding but also hiking, biking, rafting, zip line, swimming with a hot tub massages available & 3 incredible homemade meals EVERY day.........
It was a Spiritual adventure!!
Janet brought her knowledge, compassion & inspiration to our group. I came home with an explosion of personal growth, a new healthy mindset & ways to personally apply healthy habits to my own life. I couldn’t ask for a better Wellness coach than Janet. The bond from our group is so inspirational with continued learning, support & encouragement after getting home.
I am THRILLED to be part of the RIDE/LOVE/GROW Spiritual adventure & honored that I was a part of the very FIRST ANNUAL RIDE/LOVE/GROW ADVENTURE."

"It has taken me decades to realize that I am worth investing of time and money to take care of myself! I do want to live my best life! I give so much to my husband, son, business and community, I must be intentional about checking in with myself, recharging and refocusing.
When I heard that Janet was offering a Ride, Love, Grow Dude Ranch Retreat, I knew I wanted to attend! But I wasn’t prepared for how amazing this week would be!
Janet has found an incredible place to spend time in gorgeous scenery of Grand Lake, CO with amazing staff, fantastic healthy food, fabulous horses and a wonderful variety of activities. But more importantly, the private sessions Janet added to this week, gave me time to learn and reflect on my life, what’s working well and what areas do I want to challenge myself and choose to make lifestyle changes. I life a fairly healthy lifestyle, but at times I still turn to food and can gain and lose 20 lbs on and off for decades…. Janet has all the resources of a health food plan, but most importantly she has education, experience and passion to help others embrace a healthy lifestyle addressing not just the food, but your mind, body and spirit.
Even though I own three horses and riding is a part of my lifestyle, Ride, Love Grow is so much more than a horse back riding trip! It’s a way to dig deeper into your life for a deep cycle battery recharge during the group sessions and teaching. Janet also offers private and group life coaching calls before and after the retreat to help keep my attitude and focus on the life path I want to be, no matter what challenges keep coming in the different seasons of my life."

“Living a healthy lifestyle instead of "going on a diet"
In my way of thinking, losing weight is the easy part. I have accomplished this a few times in the past. Keeping the weight off is the part I always have trouble with. I feel like I have turned a corner on that front this time around.
The difference is my mindset. In times past, to lose weight I went on a diet. The trouble with going on a diet is that eventually you go off the diet. I started a diet program to lose weight true enough, but somewhere along the way I started a mindset shift. I am no longer on a diet, I am not even simply on a healthy eating plan. I am in a healthy living lifestyle! It is so much more than just what I eat. It is more than how much I eat. It is also more than WHY am I eating it? The food/eating aspect is just one part of this lifestyle. I have not even identified all the aspects of this lifestyle...yet...but I am working on it.
Today I am thinking about the food aspect...since that is where I started my journey.
I am learning and growing every day. It is a process. “

My personal story! Janet Burquest
I cannot give you an exact time as to when I was aware of starting a journey of Personal development because there are so many components to life and I am ever changing. Just like you, I have been though numerous life events that cause pain, trauma, hardships and heartache. I know that I have had amazing coaches, friends and mentors to help me through. In the end I did grow, I did see the silver linings and I can now say "life was happening for me, not to me" and still continues to do so! I believe these events have given me empathy and a love for individuals encountering life hardships and a drive to help along the journey of life back to wholeness and living life to the best! Horses have always played a big role in my life but even more so as I have gotten older. Horses truly do help up heal and grow in life!!
My love, desire and passion to help others started over 20 years ago, through the years I have taught and helped others along their journey. Today I continue to do so with a bigger impact and drive.. With the Emotional Rewiring certification I have found that helping others has a much more significate lasting impact!
