Resilience has become the go-to buzzword in sport — especially in the horse world. But what if it’s actually working against us? In this episode of The Elevated Equestrian, Samantha Baer sits down with Dr. Jenny Susser, a clinical sport psychologist and former UCLA swimmer, to unpack why “just be resilient” is the most dangerous advice riders can follow. Together they dig into burnout, hustle culture, and the hidden cost of pushing through when your tank is already empty. Dr. Susser explains why energy management — not toughness — is the real key to lasting performance, and Samantha shares her own experiences of grinding harder only to end up sick and stuck. This conversation will challenge how you think about success, stress, and sustainability — both in and out of the saddle.
