The Algorithm in Your Head: How Your Mind Shapes Every Ride


Listen Later

Ever noticed how your social media feed shows you more of what you’ve already interacted with?

Your mind works the same way.

In this episode, we explore:

  • Why your brain keeps highlighting fear, mistakes, and worst-case scenarios
  • What the Reticular Activating System (RAS) is — and how it shapes your riding experience
  • How beliefs and past experiences quietly influence how you feel with your horse
  • Why you’re not “overthinking” — your brain is just doing its job
  • And most importantly… how you can refresh your internal algorithm and retrain your mind for confidence, calm, and connection

This episode is packed with practical insights, neuroscience made simple, and those “oh wow… that makes sense” moments every rider needs.
