EP078: How Does Karen Do It?
Ever wonder how busy people get everything done? I have 7 horses, run a business that serves people around the world, and have time to enjoy life and my husband. In this episode I am joined again by productivity expert, Dr Sarah Reiff-Hekking, but this time Sarah interviews me to discuss the strategies and tools I use that help me live a life I can enjoy, while still being highly productive.
EP077: Resiliency with Karen Partisch
In this episode, I am joined again by Karen Partisch who specializes in CST for people and horses, as well as energy work. We talk about resiliency and the importance of being able to move through stress and return to relaxation. We discuss how the dynamic that manifests in the body is the same dynamic that shows up in training, and things we can do to help.
EP076: Methods & Moments
In this episode I’ll muse about the range of methods, and how to answer the question: “Which method should I use?”. As you may imagine, the ‘right’ answer is difficult…
EP075: Patterns, Goals, & Feelings
In this episode, I’ll explore changing patterns, setting goals, the up-side of getting emotional, and making decisions based on how you want to feel rather than what you want to achieve… AND how this all relates to training your horse.
EP074: Accelerate Your Learning
In this episode of Horse Training In Harmony, I’ll talk about Eclairs and what they taught me about accelerated learning.
EP073: Time For Your Horses & Life with Dr. Sarah Reiff-Hekking

EP072: Mindset & Planning
In this episode I’ll talk about how to prepare for your time with your horse so that every session can be a great session… It’s a little about mindset and a little about planning. We want to have a plan, and we want to be in the right mindset to be able to DO the plan.
EP071: My Horse My Rules
In this episode I’ll talk about rules that exist for horse behavior and whether or not we all need to abide by them. You might guess by the title of this episode that I think there is some wiggle room. There are also some rules about relaxing rules.
EP070: Anthropomorphism
In this episode I’ll talk about Anthropomorphism and how it is bad to do that with our horses…. Or is it?
I’ll take a look at common ways we give our horses human characteristics or attributes and how that affects our success with them. It’s not as clear cut as you may think.
EP069: A Working Relationship
In this episode I’ll talk about the dilemma many students have between wanting to be nice, wanting to be a source of relaxation for their horse…
EP068: Reasons, Seasons, & Lifetimes
In this episode, I’ll talk about forever horses… How that can be the most beautiful thing, or not..
EP067: What’s With Those Ears?
In this episode, I’ll talk about horses’ ears and what it means if they are back during training sessions. I’ll talk about 2 different training-related possibilities and the 2 different solutions that go with them.
EP066: Ask Karen Anything – Food Rewards
In this episode, I answer a question about using food rewards. Many people have trouble using food rewards because their horses end up getting pushy and distracted by the treats, and they end up creating bad behavior instead of rewarding good behavior.
EP065: Happy Horses with Luis Lucio
In this episode I share an interview I did a while back with International dressage trainer and rider Luis Lucio of Spain. He has competed at the highest levels and has also explored and embraced natural horsemanship.
EP064: Its Hard To Be Easy
We all want our horses to be easy to ride and play with. In this episode I’ll talk about how we shouldn’t expect it to be easy to make things easy, what it means to work hard (how that’s different than being difficult), and why you need to fall in love with the process.
