This episode covers a wide range of topics with our guest, Gem Gilbert. From riding one legged horses, to over coming accidents and developing a sense of feel cross country, Gem shares the journey so far with her amazing tri-coloured mount, Con. We also speak about how we can think sustainably about equine products, robust nail varnish and how she feels about being an engineer in the traditionally male dominated industry of motorsport. If you can keep up with purple flash Gem, follow her on instagram @gemeventing or on her blog www.gemeventing.com.
In this first episode of 2021, Mell talks to us about her riding background, including that all important first love of the riding school pony. She also discusses how some reflection led her to think about her riding differently, leading her to embrace dressage on her pony Pippa, one percent at a time. After years battling Pippa's sweet itch, Mell also shares the breakthrough that worked for her and how she and her non-horsey husband make it work out and about.
