    Unpacking the Disposable Mindset in the Horse Industry

    In this thought-provoking episode of the Making Milestones podcast, we delve deep into the intricate topic of the "disposable mindset" prevalent in the horse industry. Building upon a previously discussed subject, we explore how societal conditioning has shaped our views on horses as expendable assets, rather than sentient beings deserving of lifelong care. The episode challenges listeners to confront uncomfortable truths about the equestrian world, addressing why such practices evoke strong emotional reactions in those involved. By reflecting on personal experiences and industry norms, we aim to foster a dialogue about ethical stewardship and the responsibilities of horse ownership.   Support the Podcast: Send listener stories or topic requests: makingmilestonespodcast@gmail.com Shop my clothing and bridles: http://shopmilestoneeq.com Check out free resources, webinars and more: http://milestoneequestrian.ca Subscribe to Patreon: http://patreon.com/sdequus Tip jar: http://paypal.me/milestoneequestrian   Follow me elsewhere: http://facebook.com/milestoneequestrian96 http://instagram.com/sdequus http://tiktok.com/@sdequus
