Welcome to the Inscape Quest Podcast, where insightful conversations redefine perspectives. Join your host, Trudi Howley, as she engages with psychologist, dressage writer, and trainer Jane Karol in an exploration of recalibrating the sport of dressage.

In this episode, we delve into the global impact of a video featuring British dressage rider Charlotte Dujardin, released just prior to the Paris Olympics. Jane provides a nuanced look at human psychological responses, and the intricate dynamics within the dressage community.

We discuss the challenges of addressing vicarious trauma, the importance of constructive conversation, and the need for systemic changes to support both human and horse. Jane also emphasizes the profound beauty and connection possible in dressage, urging the community to foster positive interactions and maintain the sport's integrity.

Join us for an insightful discussion on how to support the dressage community, improve horse welfare, and ensure the sport's future remains bright and beautiful.
