Your CliftonStrengths Are the Lens

CliftonStrengths is not one session in the experience. It is the language we use throughout the experience to make the work personal.

Your profile explains how you naturally think, contribute, communicate, and make decisions. We use that information to help you recognize how those patterns affect your work, your response to pressure, and your relationships with others.

Why A Horse?

Horses give immediate feedback on how you communicate and respond under pressure.

A horse responds to what you do, not what you intended to do. It notices whether your approach is clear or confusing, patient or forceful, consistent or constantly changing.

That response gives you an opportunity to recognize a pattern, try something different, and see what changes. The horse does not define you. It makes the pattern harder to miss.

You will work directly with the people who built and facilitate the experience.

Ty Delley is the founder of The Unbridled Edge and Founder and Executive Director of Unbridled Equine Programs. An operations leader by background, Ty has spent more than 25 years at the intersection of people and performance, including 19 years at Gallup, where she built and led Global Client Support and later worked with businesses and entrepreneurs to strengthen performance and growth.

Her career-long work with CliftonStrengths, combined with her later work defining purpose through strengths, values, passions, and intended impact, became foundational to Unbridled. Today, Ty integrates those principles with applied neuroscience and equine-assisted experiential learning to help individuals, leaders, and teams understand how they’re wired and live and lead with greater intention.

Debbie Rodriguez brings a background in psychology, counseling, trauma-informed care, and neuroscience to Unbridled Equine Programs and The Unbridled Edge. Her interest in the brain began when her husband returned from his fourth military deployment with significant PTSD, prompting a years-long pursuit to better understand how experiences shape human behavior and response.

Debbie holds a master’s degree in Marriage and Family Christian Counseling and teaches psychology at the University of Mary Hardin-Baylor. Her career has included work with soldiers, children and families, and survivors of sex trafficking. A lifelong horsewoman who also operates Rodriguez Rescue Ranch, Debbie brings together her understanding of human behavior, neuroscience, and horses to create powerful experiential learning opportunities.
