    Regaining Rider Confidence After an Injury

    Regaining Rider Confidence After an Injury

    This episode is inspired by a question from one of our listeners:

    "I would love a podcast on how a rider can regain their confidence after an injury. My gelding spooked and bucked me off while riding in an arena with friends. I broke my pelvis. Although I am back to riding, I’m still scared to canter him in an arena. Thanks in advance!"

    Join me as I share some advice on this topic and my phased approach to building confidence in horse and rider after an injury.

    Embracing the Journey of Continual Growth

    Embracing the Journey of Continual Growth

    If there's one thing I've learned over the past 40+ years in the horse training business, it's the power of a growth mindset. One of the reasons I believe I have been able to survive as long as I have in this business is, somewhere along the way, I embraced the fact that horsemanship is really just a series of continual learning opportunities. Join me as I share some insights on how to embrace the journey of continual growth in your training career.

    Hustle vs. Hurry

    Hustle vs. Hurry

    My dad always used to say, "why do we always seem to have time to do things right the second time around?" In other words, hurrying usually costs you more time in the long run. In the horsemanship journey, learning the difference between hustling and hurrying can make or break your progression in training. Join me as I share some insights on this topic and help you frame your mindset around being productive at a controlled pace.
