A little bit of a vulnerable post!
Lance and I have qualified for the regionals! 🤩
Anyone who knows me knows that I haven’t had the chance to qualify for/compete at a regionals for many years due to various horse injuries, confidence knocks, lack of a competition ride, etc.
I put my heart and soul into working with my horses, be that my own or my clients. After I lost Elektra I thought I had lost my competition dreams too. I lost a little bit of my spark. I took a step away from competition riding for a couple of years to remember why I started it all, to regain my connection with horses, which took me into a different way of training and working with them. To be able to confidently train horses in the way that feels right to me and to be achieving competition goals at the same time feels like a big accomplishment and I feel a little emotional about it. I am proud of where I am today and I’m excited for what is to come! A regional qualification may seem small to some but with the journey to get here, this feels like a milestone for me.
I’m very grateful to Lance for bringing it all back and to Dani Murdoch and Anna Miller for this opportunity.
I can’t wait to get in between the white boards again.
