How do you know whether you should push through challenges with your horse to become a better rider or sell him and move on? In this episode, JJ discusses her criteria for making this difficult decision. She approaches the taboo subject of rider fear with both compassion and pragmatism, and encourages you to trust your trainer to help you decide when your emotions cloud your decision. Just like dating, your frog might be someone else's prince or princess. Life is too short to hold onto a horse you don't LOVE to ride! 

"You really need to find a horse you have a spiritual connection with. There are some horses that bring you to a centered place, and that is like therapy."
