Is Your Anxiety Making Your Kid More Nervous? with Courtenay Baber (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We all know the feeling: standing at the rail, trying not to visibly panic, while our kid looks completely calm in the saddle. Turns out that might not be as harmless as it feels. This week I’m talking with Courtenay Baber, a licensed professional counselor, lifelong rider, and founder of Gray Horse Counseling, about the mental side of riding for our kids, and for us. We get into why kids’ self-talk turns into a hamster wheel so fast, what to actually say (and not say) before a big ride, and a s
All the Things I Got Wrong About Pony Finals (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Before Pony Finals, I thought we knew horse shows. We had rated shows under our belt. We'd qualified for a national championship. I had even made an entire episode about what first-timers need to know. Then we got to Kentucky, and I realized this was a completely different world.

She signs up for her own shows. I knew it would change my schedule, but I didn't realize how much it would change my job. In this episode, I'm talking through the moment this really hit me, the milestones I didn't recognize u
Pony Finals Tips From a Mom Who's Been There (Three Times) w/Laura Greenstreet (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Episode Summary When we qualified for Pony Jumper Finals, I quickly realized that the official information answered plenty of competition questions but almost none of my horse mom questions. When should we arrive? Do we really need a golf cart? What happens when we pull into the Kentucky Horse Park? How do we know where to go? What should we pack that no one tells us about? So I invited Laura Greenstreet, mom to Pony Jumper rider Cora Greenstreet and founder of the Pony Jumpers USA Facebook grou
10 Questions Every Horse Mom Should Ask (Especially If You're New to The Sport) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Episode Summary When my recent article in The Plaid Horse about how confusing the horse world can be for new families was published, one comment kept popping up: "Just ask questions." Great suggestion! The problem is, when you're new to horses, you don't know what questions to ask. So in this episode, I'm sharing 10 simple questions that can save you time, money, frustration, and a whole lot of second-guessing. These aren't embarrassing beginner questions - they're conversation starters that wil
