Welcome to episode 4! You will have already read the episode title to learn today's guest is none other than the man himself, Ben Longwell of True West Horsemanship. I highly doubt anyone's excitement can top that of mine at the time of recording!
We briefly touch on this cowboy's journey to our local shores and dive deep into the passion, values, and beliefs that Ben carries with him through all things equine. I think my favourite thing Ben mentions is that he, simply put, just loves horses. It's always refreshing to hear that although horses may be a career and way of life for some, the drive and love for them never dies.
Just a small note, this interview was via zoom call so sometimes the audio cuts a little however, 99% is A-OK!

Hello! 

Welcome to today's episode, where I talk with Jake Steel of Jake Steel Creative all about the art and sport of stock whip cracking! 
While this episode may not be the usual horsey spiel, it sure is informative and interesting! Jake shares his passion and the story of how that came to be. He explains the true artform and refinement it takes to be a seasoned pro, and I hope this episode opens the door for something new to try for all of you! And I tell you what, by the end of today's episode you're going to be 'chomping at the bit' to get out and give it a go!

Hello there!

Welcome to the second episode of Season 2, and in turn, the first guest episode! 
On today's episode I am joined by the incredibly motivated and forward-thinking young eventer, Brea Walker. 
You may have come across Brea's adventures in the UK grooming for Sir Mark Todd, or have seen her soaring over cross country fences around the North Island, but in today's episode, we dive into how she came to be the eager, talented young rider she is!
Brea touches on having to work for what she's got and the journey getting there, as well as the life experiences she's gone through along the way. 
At the young age of 20, Brea proves that hard work and determination are the first doorway to success! She is a true motivator and encourager for all equestrians!

Hi there! In the final guest episode of season 1, I am joined by Kirsty Sharapoff of Kirsty Sharapoff Equestrian. She talks us through what its been like coming back to horses later in life and KICKING ASS! Kirsty touches on moving up the grades in eventing all the way through to 4*! She has a fabulous story that proves you don't need to be in your youth to take on new challenges and be successful within them! I'm certain she will give many of you the motivation you've been needing to get out there and do it!

Hi there!

On today's episode I am joined by the girl who quite literally lives 'get knocked down once stand up twice', Molly Buist-Brown. Molly is a Canterbury based show jumper currently competing at Horse GP level and the young rider series. Throughout the episode, Molly not only talks about her enormous successes as a young rider, but also talks about her major setbacks and accidents through her career so far. Just a pre warning, this episode does talk about horse-related falls and injuries. However, the comeback from Molly's run of bad luck makes for a  fantastic listen, so I hope you enjoy!
