I've almost completed the FULL upload for Reconnect, Rebuild, and Ride with Heart - 1 more Seed to go! There is so much new content. I hope you all have a blast practicing it and I would love to hear how your experiments go 😊 I'm also working through the photos from Happy Horse Camp. I'll share the best ones here shortly 😉 Happy Riding and stay cool everyone 💙🐴

Jump in if you have questions! If you are in Reconnect, Rebuild, and Ride with Heart - I have finished moving Seed 4 over, so all the content is there now. Work through it and let me know how it goes 🤩

🎧 Ten Minute Tuesday is here! This week’s challenge is all about perfecting your practice. Not practicing EVERYTHING, all the time. That causes confusion - for horse and rider. Pick just one thing for you and one thing for your horse. 📝 Take 10 minutes and answer these three questions: 1️⃣ What do I need to practice to get where I want to go? 2️⃣ What does my horse need to practice to get where we want to go? 3️⃣ If we practiced only those two things for the next three weeks, what would happen? Better yet… Who would you become as a pair? This week, don’t worry about accomplishing more. Just commit to practicing those two things every time you’re with your horse. 👇 Share your answers below! I’d love to hear: - What’s the one thing you’re practicing? - What’s the one thing your horse is practicing? Let’s encourage each other and see where three weeks of intentional practice takes us. 💙🐴

One of the biggest mindset shifts I’ve made over the years is, not asking: “How do I get my horse to…?” but to start THINKING “Who do I need to become TO GET MY HORSE TO.....? Your horse doesn’t care about your five-year plan, your ribbon goals, or whether you finally nail that movement. They experience the human you show up as today. Were you patient? Were you clear? Were you curious? Were you KIND? Did you notice before you reacted? Did you leave them feeling more confident than when you started? That’s the real work. The beautiful thing is that every ride—and every interaction—is another opportunity to practice. 🎙️ This week’s podcast episode, The Person Your Horse Needs You to Become, dives into why the process matters so much more than the outcome and how focusing on daily habits can transform both you and your horse. 👇 I’d love for us to make this a conversation. Share one thing you’re practicing this week—not something you’re trying to accomplish, but one quality or habit you’re intentionally building. Mine? Intentionally leaning into the things that are HARD. Wish me luck 😉

It's going to be a hot one here on the east coast, but isn't it always for the 4th?! I'm in the process of uploading an episode of The Thinking Horse and Rider on riding in the heat. What makes you decide it's too hot to ride? And...let's welcome our new members @Danielle Haviland and @Xena Dvorak-Smith ! Let us know a little about your horses and what you love to do with them 😊 Have a wonderful weekend everyone!
