The Truth Under the Treats
This episode is the moment you realize you and your horse have been signaling the truth long before anything big happened. We get into thresholds, why humans override themselves, and how horses expose the exact point we disconnect from our own body even when we think we are being kind or rewarding.
We talk about
→ the rise before the reaction
→ how the body whispers long before it yells
→ the tension you think you are hiding that your horse reads instantly
→ how treats cannot cover pressure your body never resolved
→ when intention gets scrambled and the horse responds to the truth instead of the behavior
→ micro expressions that shift everything
→ what real safety feels like when you stop performing and start sensing
