Book Release
It started with one horse, one story, and one unexpected visit from a troop of Boy Scouts.
Now it’s become Ask Like You Mean It – Lessons in Communication from an Unexpected Source, My Horse! A book about what happens when we slow down, listen deeply, and learn to speak the language of trust—both with our horses and with each other.

Whether you’re leading a team or guiding a family, Maria Alessandri helps you find your voice, deepen connection, and lead with authenticity. Build trust, presence, and real communication that creates lasting impact.
