About this episode
Rupert Isaacson is a British-South African film producer, writer, and Autism awareness advocate who has dedicated his life to helping his son, Rowan, by working with horses. In addition to founding The Horse Boy Foundation, which helps connect autistic children with equine-assisted therapists who practice the Horse Boy method of healing and transformation, Rupert has traveled the world with his son to places like Africa, Australia, and a Navajo Reservation. Along the way, he discovered the healing power of shamanism and how there are spiritual ways individuals with autism can become empowered members of society. In 2004 he founded the Indigenous Land Rights Fund, which helps hunting and gathering peoples of the Kalahari gain legal access to their ancestral lands. He has spent years documenting the way they interact both within their communities and with the environment around them and is a proponent of the ancient hunter-gatherer lifestyle of our past.
