Picture the bond between a horse and its rider. It's a connection of understanding, mutual respect, and an unspoken language that transcends words. Our guest today is Olivia, an equestrian who has spent a lifetime understanding these relationships. Olivia's journey into the equestrian world is a story that departs from the beaten path. With a mother who was a successful horse show competitor, Olivia could have easily followed the same route. However, her attraction to horses was unique and deviated from her mother's path. Her bond with a horse named Leo sparked a passion for horse riding that led to a deeper appreciation for each animal's unique aptitudes.
This episode is a ride through the world of equestrianism, the art of naming horses, and the transformative moments that shape a rider. Olivia shares valuable insights about training horses, teaching lessons, and helping enthusiastic learners find their balance in the saddle. We delve into how traditional methods of training can establish hierarchy and respect between the rider and the horse. We also explore the process of naming horses, touching on how names often relate to the paternal and maternal sides of the horse. Most importantly, Olivia recounts a transformative moment she had with her horse, Skye, emphasizing the importance of riding with intention.
The journey doesn't end there; we discuss the thrill and risks associated with horse riding. With anecdotes of her close calls and experiences, Olivia highlights how a horse's breeding and training can significantly affect its temperament. We also touch on the impact of training on a horse's happiness and the signals they give to communicate their personal limits. Finally, we discuss the benefits of equestrianism, including improved communication skills and conflict avoidance. Join us on this enlightening episode that goes beyond the saddle and into the heart of a lifelong passion for horses.
