One of the most unrecognized superpowers is consistency and the ability to show up for yourself. Every.Single.Day. Consistency and repetition are your best friend to get where you want to go.
"Athlete: What if I don’t have what it takes?

Coach: You don’t have to have it. You build it run(ride)by run(ride), day by day."

Athlete: Coach, I feel stuck. I’ve been training for weeks and I don’t see any real improvement. What am I doing wrong?

Coach: Probably nothing. You're just in the middle.

Athlete: The middle?

Coach: The part where progress feels invisible. Where work piles up, but results stay quiet.

Athlete: So what do I do?

Coach: Keep going.

Athlete: That’s it?

Coach: That’s everything. Most people quit in the middle not because it’s hard, but because it’s quiet.

Athlete: But what if I never see progress?

Coach: You will. But not when you expect it. The body adapts slowly. The mind even slower. Think of it like water dripping on stone it looks like nothing, until one day, there's a groove.

Athlete: It just feels like I’m spinning my wheels.

Coach: That’s how every champion feels right before the breakthrough. Every run, every set, every choice it compounds. Just because you can’t see it, doesn’t mean it’s not working.

Athlete: So I just trust the process?

Coach: Trust yourself. Consistency is the real miracle. Anyone can show up once. Few show up daily.

Athlete: What if I don’t have what it takes?

Coach: You don’t have to have it. You build it run by run, day by day.

Happy Mother's Day to all the Mama's that help keep the world going 'round.

I am so blessed to have this photo, and many others like it, marking little moments that I have been so privileged to have with my daughter as she grows and I continue to work.

There are a long list of fellow Mama's that run their own businesses that help keep us going around here and I will always be a big supporter of my fellow working mom's. I firmly believe in leading the way to show my little girl that dreams are achievable if you are willing to chase them hard enough.

To my daughter: I'm so glad I get to help you learn how to navigate this big world and can't wait to see what things you bring to the world with your kind, loving, and spirited self. Watching you grow is the biggest privilege I've ever been given.

This horse just keeps getting better with time. Show him the job you want and how to do it and he will be there for you every time.

GQ is a 2013 16.2 hh OTTB that raced, then used as a pony horse and landed with us for retraining and boy he doesn't like to disappoint. This guy has not only started jumping but has now started to haul out to some local versatility shows and has shown that even a big horse can get the job done. PM for more info.

Our Assistant Trainer, Shaula Wright, had a great first outing on Naughty at the Bar, owned by Cathy Gumbert and her own horse Mysterio.

Thank you to all of my clients, parents and kids, for everything you do to help at horse shows and for believing in my program!

Thank you to our host, Arrowheart Ranch, for putting on such a great show. These shows are always so well run and the atmosphere is second to none!

Finally, thank you to 4 Hearts Ranch and the home team for not only taking first rate care of our horses on the daily, but also thank you for the recent addition of the outdoor trail course that has helped these girls so much with their success in the show pen!

Eat. Sleep. Breathe. Obsess over everything you want, every day.
Some people call it passion.
Some people say it's grit.
For others it's too hard, or too much.
If you can't stop thinking about it, it was meant for you.

Horse and cowgirl theory.
