Welcome to episode 4 of the Ethical Equestrian Podcast! In this episode, I discuss the idea of a timeline in horse training, and just how limiting it can be for a genuine relationship with our horses. I talk about my personal mindset shift in working with horses, and how I'm currently applying it to my partnership with my horse Ghost. I encourage every equestrian to let go of a rigid framework and instead welcome flexibility into their training methods. Every horse is an individual and shows us a unique perspective when we're willing to listen.
