What does it mean to ride with honesty - not just with your hands and legs, but with your whole being?

In this raw and refreshingly real conversation, legendary eventer William Fox-Pitt joins host Noelle Floyd to talk about far more than medals and milestones.

With 14 five-star wins, multiple Olympic medals, and the distinction of being the first rider in history to win five different five-stars, William is one of the most iconic horsemen of our time.

But in this episode, he opens up about the moments between the headlines - the brutal fall that put him in a coma, the comeback that defied medical odds, and the inner compass that's guided his life with horses for over four decades.

Together, they explore:

• The concept of congruency and why horses respond to truth in motion
• Why he believes simplicity is underrated, both in horses and in people
• The evolution of eventing and the deeper cost of chasing perfection Why some horses "just do things" for certain riders - and how to become one of them
• His refreshingly honest take on legacy, aging, and letting go of the iconic identity
• With equal parts humility and wisdom, William reflects on the horses who made his career - and why, in the end, it was never really about the win
