Hi friends, this week's ep starts out light covering some updates around my health journey, acne, etc and turned into quite a heavy one covering something I've been avoiding talking about for a while now. I wasn't really sure when I started the episode that I'd ever go there so apologies for the tone shift.

Even in the episode I say it happened a few months ago, but only in looking back have I realized it was actua...

Hello friends, this episode is exactly what it seems to be! 25 things I've learned in my time working with horses that I wish I'd known sooner and believe are worth sharing. Enjoy!

1. "they wouldn't do it if they didn't want to" is a myth
2. respect is often conflated / confused with obedience
3. punishment only teaches horses to conceal their worries, fears, pain, discomfort
4. it's not cool or a badge o...

Hello friends, this episode is accidentally a more raw and vulnerable one. I start out catching you all up on Zoë + Azula and move into some more serious thoughts on training, mixing reinforcements (don't be scared now), my relationship with social media, and my dilemmas/paralysis when it comes to training and choosing my path. Enjoy!

Ok friends! We're on the third + final part of this booktalk series covering The Body Keeps the Score by Bessel van der Kolk. This section details about the treatment + recovery discussions in the book, specifically how important our role as an attuned "attachment figure" is in our relationships with our horses - especially those equine friends who are struggling with some traumatic fallout. We'll go in to depth a...

Alright alright alright everyone! We're at part 2 of this booktalk series over The Body Keeps the Score by Bessel van der Kolk. This episode covers the 3 avenues to recovery from trauma with the primary focus on developing an understanding of reactivity and problem behavior through the lens of trauma. We're applying the concepts from research on humans to valuable principles to use in our approach to working with horses. En...

Welcome to the first iteration of a little series I'd like to start on this podcast! Imagine a book club of sorts where I apply concepts from books I'm reading (horse related or not) to work with horses! So, in this ep, I discuss applying Bessel van der Kolk's "The Body Keeps the Score" to training and working with horses with a bit of a trauma history. This episode is part 1 of this book's episodes as I h...

This ep is basically a speed run of all the things I've learned over the past year that have largely changed my life. All centered around increasing your connection with your horse, this episode goes into mindfulness, perception, intention, some emotional regulation and more. Additionally, I answer a listener question regarding a horse who nips/bites. Here's the question:

"I was wondering if you could discuss what a ho...

Enjoy a drizzly lazy day with me as I regale events of the week's past such as the start of my new job, Zoë updates, and Azula's rain rot. We also dip into the divisive woo woo topic of energy where some shine with passion and others spit in disgust (some really hate the idea of "training with energy"...). But I offer ye this... might we be looking at what it means to "train with energy" in the wrong way? Does is matter how you loo...

For the fastest episode turnaround in the history of ETP, I present to you a ‘sode filled to the brim with human-related content. This one has very little to do with horses, and everything to do with some potentially relatable hardships that have been going on in my life as well as how I’m dealing with them + what self-care practices have made all the difference for me. I hope this episode helps someone out there in one way or anot...

Come along with me for a little bit of a story time as I regale the recent events spent enjoying the equines as they are as well as the young horses’ first time loose in the arena. Beyond this enchanting tale, I also took on a few listener questions. I cover…

•  A pony who’s struggling with leading + balking.
•  A horse who rears when asked to go forward.
•  A human who lacks motivation to work with horses in the ...

What a wonderful lil episode this was! I hope it gave you guys some solid ideas of how we can work to improve the way that +R trainers present themselves, the science of behavior and training, and how we can all work to better the lives of our equine companions. Guest, Adele Shaw, and I attempt (as much as our very tangent prone brains allow) to cover a shaping plan from top to bottom explaining the bad and correcting for the good....

You guys, I am so stoked for this episode. It’s been such a long time coming and I think it’s so good! So, quit reading this lame description and dive into this episode with the one and only Adele Shaw of the Willing Equine.

Adele Shaw is an internationally recognized mentor and trainer focused on creating a positive relationship between horse and human through science-based training and care practices. Drawn to horses labeled as “...

Welcome one and all to this absolute albatross-infested podcast episode. I hope you brought your opinion oars because you’ll be treading and wading through several of mine this episode (canoe, think canoe, that’s the metaphor). But, never fear, I assure you, my dear faint-hearted listener, that there are countermeasures in place such as… whacky, upbeat moments, cool, fun, funky fresh announcements, and silly goofy pony clips and ta...
