Unfortunately, we lost one of our heart horses yesterday, Soda.

Soda was known and loved by everyone who met him. He was a huge part of our farm for nearly 20 years and will leave such an empty space in the geldings pen. He started out as a reining horse, switched to English and then retired as a lesson horse.

He taught hundreds of kids their very first lessons. He was the kind of horse that made people fall in love with riding—the safe one, the confidence builder, the one they’ll always remember.

In his younger years, Soda was a force to be reckoned with. He had opinions, a big personality, and just enough stubbornness to keep things interesting. After a clinic with Tommy McDowell he jokingly said, “He would be one hell of a horse if you could just get him to work with you towards the same goal instead of against you.” And that really was Soda. Full of character, personality, but so incredibly special.

He was part of the heart of this place. A once-in-a-lifetime kind of horse who touched so many lives.

He’ll be missed more than words can ever say, we love you Soda Pop 💛

Everyone says they want to win.
Very few actually want to be coached.

Because being coachable means:
– Hearing something you don’t want to hear
– Changing habits you’re comfortable with
– Doing it different… even if it feels worse at first

That’s where most people check out.

They want progress without correction.
Confidence without accountability.
Results without changing anything.

I can tell almost immediately who’s going to improve and it’s not always the most talented rider.

It’s the one who hears:
“Shorten your reins.”
“Sit deeper.”
“Do it again.”

…and actually does it.

No attitude.
No excuses.
No ego.

Just effort.

If you’re only coachable when it feels good,
you’re not coachable.
