EP259: Accepting Praise
In this episode I share a story about the power of accepting praise and contemplate whether to hold on to, or not, the old measures of success.
EP258: How to Learn Online
In this episode DN Instructor, Shawna Lewis and I talk about learning in online courses – why so many are disappointing, and what makes it possible to totally transform your riding in an online course. This discussion will help you spend your education money and time more wisely.
EP257: Rehabilitating The Equine Athlete
In this episode I talk about the pillars of rehabilitation I use when helping an equine athlete return to a mentally, emotionally, and physically healthy state. And the good news, is you can use these same pillars to train in a way that avoids the problems in the first place.
EP256: Teaching Priorities
In this episode I reflect on my recent conference with all the DN Instructors, and share one piece about priorities for teaching.
EP255: Using the Happy Athlete Training Scale
In this episode I explain a way to use the HATS to make better progress while prioritizing your horse’s well-being. It’s a short but hopefully very helpful episode that you can put into practice right away.
EP254: When Your Horse Knows Best
In this episode I talk about when my horse makes the best decisions, and how we need to be paying attention and ready to set aside our egos when that happens.
EP253: Exuberance or Trouble?
In this episode I talk about how we should feel about our horse getting ‘big’ when online or at liberty. Will it make it more likely they’ll leap and buck under saddle? Is it OK or not OK to allow it?
EP252: What to Do When You See Mistreatment
In this episode I continue my exploration of what we can do to help horses when they are being mistreated. Helping to improve horse welfare isn’t just about taking action in the worst cases, it is about bringing awareness to the smaller moments in a way that creates change.
EP251: USPC Equine Welfare Task Force
In this episode I am joined by the USPC Equine Welfare Task Force, made up of: Dr Stacy Anderson, Heather Bell, Dr Laura Thompson, Christina Keim. In creating this, they are leading the way for education on equine wellness and will have a huge influence on a new generation of horsemen. This is so important and I’m excited to have these wonderful women on the pod. I think you’ll love hearing about what they’ve created and will be left feeling optimistic.
EP250: Low Performance with Dr Jenny Susser
In this episode I speak with high performance expert Dr Jenny Susser, a self described athlete, scientist, horse lover and people expert. She helps people with high performance, but today I’m going to ask her about embracing contentedness with “low performance”… and what that even means. This talk will get personal as I share some challenges I’ve been having at this point in my life & career.
EP249: Postural Rehabilitation with Dr Judith Shoemaker & Dr Karen Gellman
In this episode I am joined by Dr Judith Shoemaker and Dr Karen Gellman. They talk about Postural Rehabilitation and why horses may not respond to treatment. It is often due to underlying imbalances and they discuss different areas you’ll want to look at.
EP248: Your Horse’s M.O.
In this episode I talk about your horse’s M.O. Is there a quirk or behavior that continues through as you train? That even if you improve it, it comes back… how do we feel about that and what do we do about it?
EP247: Wanting To
In this episode I muse about how my horses and I navigate our feelings of ‘wanting to’ do things together (or not). I’ll share some stories of my horses and hopefully leave you feeling a little more free.
EP246: My Horse is Perfect
In this episode I talk about how perfect my horses are – not just my horses, but your horses, and all horses! This is not some superficial positive thinking, it’s a context and an attitude that has a tremendous influence on how you train and live with horses.
EP245: Wild Horses with Scott Beckstead
In this episode I’ll be talking with Scott Beckstead of the Wild Horse Refuge in Colorado. We’ll talk about how he is helping wild horses who have been rounded up by the Bureau of Land Management return to a life of freedom.
