Equestrian Performance Mindset

The Real Reason You're Not Moving Up - #189


Listen Later

In this empowering episode, we dive into one of the most common fears holding ambitious riders back: the fear of not seeing a distance, and what it really means when you're scared to step up a level. Whether you're hovering at 1.10m and terrified of even thinking about 1.15m, or constantly waiting to feel "ready" before pushing yourself forward, this conversation is for you.

We unpack:

  • Why fear of failure (and not fear of injury) is usually what’s really holding you back
  • The illusion of perfection, and how chasing it keeps you stuck
  • What to do when fear is real (like after a fall), and how to work through it safely
  • The mindset shift from “Ready, Aim, Fire” to “Fire, Aim, Ready”
  • Why confidence is not a precondition to action, it’s a result of taking it
  • 💬 Plus, we share our personal stories, mindset hacks, and a serious call to action: if this episode lights a fire under your saddle, let us know! We want to hear from YOU.

    If you're tired of feeling like you need to “see every stride” before you move up, if you're stuck in the loop of waiting until you feel confident, or if you're comparing yourself to a mythical perfect round, you need to listen to this episode.
