This one is for the ladies. Friendships. Embarrassing Horseshow moments. Marriage. Horses.

Laura and I have been besties for over 15 years. We discuss how our friendship has evolved over those years and how horses keep us together, in more ways than one! Friendships in your 20s, 30s and 40s looks different at each age. 

We both have gone through different types of tough times, and through them all, we have leaned on each other to move those mountains and persevere.

We are friends, wives, mothers and HORSE GIRLS. We talk about how we attempt to keep all of that together...

Laura has such an incredible outlook on life although she has been handed some ROUGH cards.

I am also throwing in a link to donate to the Pediatric Cancer Foundation of the Lehigh Valley. Laura's amazing daughter was diagnosed with ALL (a type of leukemia) a few years ago and this foundation is near and dear to our hearts.

Clinton Anderson is cool but, have you met Pierre Briere!??!

Whether you have or haven't met Pierre, this episode has something for everyone. Pierre has been in the AQHA industry as a youth exhibitor, trainer, and judge. He has experienced many changes throughout the years and is not afraid to touch on the "touchy" topics!

He is judging the Congress this year and he spills the tea on what its like from how he prepares to judge a show of that caliber to the accomodations and how he scores each class. Maybe he'll be in the center when you show, and this might help you stand out a little higher on his card...


Pierre Briere and his wife, Nicole run a wonderfully successful training business in Frenchtown, NJ. Pierre is an incredible coach, clinician, and judge, and I am so grateful for his time and knowledge on this episode! Enjoy!

I had the utmost pleasure of sitting down with 2022 Quarter Horse Congress Queen, Kylie Good.

I don't know about you, but I didn't realize the depth of the Queen Contest. We talk about WHY you should do it, WHAT you gain from it and MORE!

Guarantee you will learn so much in this podcast about the whole process about how to become the Quarter Horse Congress Queen. Being the Queen and even the process of "competing" is amazing and seemingly life changing.

I don't know much about pageant life- but MAN, this whole process has definitely set Kylie up for success in so many different areas of life.

Tune in to hear how I prepare for a day at a horse show....kind of a GRWM...LOL and see how Maggie and I interpret what our habits mean as far as mental preparedness.,etc My Routine constitutes a HUGE coffee, immodium and freaking out that Im not going to make it for my class on time...you?!

Maggie is an EXPERT when it comes to helping people. So, I ask her how we can all help ourselves be more mentally aware and more present when it comes to competiting.  

Something I personally love from this episode is Maggie said, " Anxiety loves a plan." 


Can you tell the difference anxiety and adrenaline!?

Also- how do we handle the HARD talks with our trainers?!!?

Call the TrotLine @ 484-246-6568 to tell us how you prep for shows or how you handled a hard convo with your trainer.

There are so many horse show moms, dads and grandparents out there that support all of us crazy horse kids (me included even at almost 40 years old LOL) and they need to be thanked profusely!! Its not an easy job to be a parent, let alone one who decides to take on helping their child physically, mentally AND financially take on the world of horse showing. 

Lets talk to one of the best- Deanna Rippeon. She has two girls that compete in the 14-18 all around events on the AQHA circuit. She lets us in on how she has successfully not raised bratty kids, how they keep it together at the shows and how they started from the bottom; "now they here" 

One of my favorite take aways from this sesh was this quote straight from Deanna:

"when something is a part of your fabric, you don't go changing it."

This episode will have you laughing, crying and saying "I feel that so hard"

Enjoy!

Whether you believe in Equine Communicators/mediums or not...its FUN. It's such a fun experience to do with your current horse(s) or it can really help you heal from losing a horse. I have even seen these people help diagnose problem horses or a mystery lameness. We've always said that we wish our horses could tell us what's wrong... Now they can through these incredible people :)

I have worked with a few different equine communicators over the years, and they all have such an amazing gift. They have made me a believer! 

The information I have received through each of them has allowed me to connect deeper with my horse or feel a sense of relief about one that has passed.

In this episode, Dawn Taylor (medium and equine/animal communicator) and I talk about what my horses have to say, how she has convinced some non-believers and how she works with her clients to give them the best experience possible.

You can also find Dawn on Facebook (Dawn Beatty-Taylor)

I sat down with 3 horse trainers that SOME HOW share one barn....we talk about their "style" in the barn and what works when it comes to working together.

Relationships always come up. We discuss being Hat Hot and a horse girls perspective on finding a guy and we even get a glimpse into the same perspective from a gay couple.

GLAM! Why do the hunter riders not wear makeup and the stock breed girls get glammed up like a Kardashian!? Lets discuss...

I have been thinking about doing this for a while now...I wanted to create a space for the stock breed (we will probably talk to others too but...) horse community that is RELATABLE and a place where we can LAUGH together. Life can be so serious...but, in the horse world, we go to the barn to get away from the daily grind. I'd even say the barn is a form of therapy for most! Laughter is also a great form of therapy. Don't they say something like "people who smile and laugh more are healthier and live longer"...add being happy and a horse=perfection.

Consider this channel like this: you just got done riding your horse. He is quietly munching on his hay in his stall. Grab a cocktail and let's chat in the aisle! There are so many memorable conversations to be had in the barn.

Let's keep this "light" and "fun". No politics.  No drama.  

Side note- I am recording this in my barn aisle...with my Pomeranian, Nikki. There may be some moments of WTH...this is IRL guys.

Are you in!?
