In this warm and reflective episode, Emma-Jane and Lorna dive into five powerful lessons horses live by — the ones we humans tend to forget in the rush, pressure, and chaos of everyday life. Inspired by real moments with their own horses, they explore how much calmer, clearer, and more connected we’d all be if we actually lived like our horses do.

You’ll hear:
1️⃣ Presence over pressure — why horses never live in “what ifs,” and how riders can learn the same.
2️⃣ Rhythm before speed — the quiet foundation that transforms confidence and balance.
3️⃣ Energy tells the truth — horses read us long before they react to us.
4️⃣ Connection first, correction second — how relationship sets the tone for every ride.
5️⃣ Rest is part of the work — consistency matters more than intensity.

“Is it possible to enjoy winter riding? Or is it just survival until March?”
Featuring:
• The mud that has unionised
• Crying waterproofs
• A mare who becomes a kite
• EJ & Lorna’s tips for finding small moments of joy when everything is freezing, flapping, or foggy

“Winter riding I can handle… winter people? Not so much.”
Why yard politics get worse in winter — and how to protect your peace without moving to a far paddock and becoming a hermit.
We talk:
• Boundaries
• Your “quiet bubble”
• Micro-communities
• When to stay… and when it’s time to go

And yes — whiskey may have been mentioned. 🥃
Because winter riding deserves medals… or at least a warm drink.
