Unraveling Societal Norms in the Horse World

In this episode of the Making Milestones podcast, we delve into the intriguing intersections between horse culture and broader societal dynamics. Shelby explores how societal conditioning, capitalism, and the demand for productivity permeate the horse industry, challenging long-held beliefs about the necessity of work for fulfillment, both for humans and their equine companions.

Through a critical lens, the discussion reveals how human emotions, societal biases, and the concept of 'earning one's keep' affect horse training and care. The episode also touches upon the broader implications of capitalism on human welfare and the environment, urging listeners to rethink the status quo and consider more holistic, community-centered ways of living and interacting with animals.

Join Shelby as she reflects on the need for empathy, understanding, and a shift towards more ethical practices in both human and animal communities. Plus, enjoy a few light-hearted moments with Queso, the new kitten, who makes a cameo with his playful antics.
