Dr. Lawrence & Coach Queen Kelli Droughn
We are excited about you getting to know us!
We are an ordinary couple with a beyond-ordinary love for both people and animals, especially horses. We wanted to make a marriage between our profession as coaches and our lifestyle. So we envisioned the type of life we would love to live. Then we bought a ranch, horses, and some animals and now we are living our dream.
Our goal is to help individuals, families, youth, other couples, developmentally disabled, autistic as well as those within the foster care system and ministry groups to experience the pure magic of how animals and a rural environment can be used to promote breakthrough, healing, reconciliation and so much more. Like opening a person up to the dream they may have left behind as a child. Which is exactly what happened to us.
For both of us as kids growing up we always wanted to have horses, ride them, and if we were blessed to own them. It's not about the money for us. We know we can make far more doing our other professional endeavors of working with the autistic and developmentally disabled over the past 20 years. It's about causing people to live their dreams, showing individuals there is enjoyment beyond the rat race and stress of life. Living life to its fullest regardless of the risk you must take or who does not agree.
We have extensive backgrounds working with people. We have a heart for marriages, families, inner-city youth, TAY (Transitioned Age Youth) who come from the foster system but are not ready to be on their own, and the developmentally disabled. Our experience with mental health reaches far and wide and while working with these individuals we have learned, firsthand, the difference between animals, having a purpose in life and someone who will hold your hand and simply care.
We, along with our volunteers and partners are here to provide that helping hand, word of encouragement and support.
We Are Team Droughn
