This podcast episode discusses the dual roles riders embody: the
supportive advocate and the accountable coach. The challenge arises
when riders need to switch between these roles depending on
the situation with their horse.
Using personal anecdotes and analogies, Stacy illustrates how these
roles manifest in real-life scenarios, such as encouraging a horse
to canter in a confined space or making decisions while trail
riding.
Drawing parallels between sports coaching and horse training, she
elucidates the challenges riders face in pushing their horses
beyond their comfort zones while maintaining a supportive
rapport.
By sharing personal experiences and insights, Stacy encourages
listeners to reflect on their own roles and challenges in horse
training, offering practical tips for navigating these
complexities.
