Welcome to the Overeducated Hippie Community!!

Tori’s Story

Hi there! I am Tori.

Here is a little bit about me! I grew up in a very small town and from a young age was ostracized by my peers and adults around me. Being ‘characterized’ as dyslexic, dysgraphic, hyperactive, and distracted I was placed in an environment that I felt I needed to over-achieve. So I fell down the trap that so many millennials were sold and went to a ‘prestigious’ institution in pursuit of a piece of paper. And after I achieved this? I realized I had been living in flight, fawn, and freeze for my entire life. I had spent so much time ‘proving’ myself that I was not incompetent, that I forgot about what I wanted to experience in this life. My deep love of horses has always anchored me, and at times saved my life. Knowing the healing that these animals have to offer I began interweaving my knowledge of psychology and science through my experiences gaining my Masters Degree in Behavioral Analysis, with my expertise and experience with horses. From this fertile ground Overeducated Hippie was birthed and I am so excited to share and watch where this community will take us!

My goal is to help you take back control of your mental, emotional, and physical health through actionable rituals and routines that will bring you back to yourself. I can’t wait to see where our friendship will take us!!
