Equiteam member Gillian Birrell chats about the ups and downs of her journey with her horse Ziggy and why she thinks it is important to share that it's not always full of smiles and achievements. Returning to riding after a big break, Gillian found herself teamed with a horse who has tested her resilience and confidence on multiple occasions. After 10 falls in almost as many months, Gillian knew it was decision time – did she try and learn to work as a team – or was it time to part company for good? Gillian shares what tools she has found, and why asking for help and surrounding yourself with positive support has been the is the most valuable part of her journey. A real honest account of an on-going journey, with a twist of Oompa Loompa and a splash of Johnny Depp.
