Equestrian Performance Mindset

When Things Don't go According to Plan - #198


Listen Later

What do you do when your biggest goal slips through your fingers? When something that should be easy just falls apart?

In this raw and real episode, I share a personal story after a surprise elimination at a 2* event that derailed my path to the 7-year-old World Championships. Alongside Lorna, we unpack what it really means to reframe a “failure” and keep moving forward with clarity and confidence.

In this episode, we talk about:

  • The emotional rollercoaster of watching your goals slip away
  • Why riding “a level down” doesn’t always mean an easy round
  • How complacency and expectations can quietly sabotage performance
  • The danger of letting your ego (or Instagram!) define your self-worth
  • My powerful 3-step post-competition reflection process
  • What to do when you see someone else succeed at your goal
  • Why setbacks don’t mean you're not good enough, they just mean you're growing
  • If you’ve ever:

    • Felt blindsided by a disappointing competition
    • Wondered if you should just stop setting goals altogether
    • Struggled to bounce back when things don’t go to plan
    • Compared your messy middle to someone else’s perfect highlight reel... …
    • then this episode will meet you exactly where you are, and show you how to shift.
